Create an ADB data source

Security risk notice

Data Transmission Service lets you add its public CIDR blocks automatically or manually. This operation can introduce security risks. Using this product, you acknowledge and accept the potential security risks and are responsible for implementing basic security measures. These measures include, but are not limited to, using complex account passwords, restricting open ports for each CIDR block, using authentication for internal API communication, and regularly checking and restricting unnecessary IP address CIDR blocks.

Data Transmission Service adjusts (adds or deletes) automatically added whitelists or security groups based on business requirements and security risks. Do not use the IP address CIDR blocks in these whitelists or security groups for purposes unrelated to Data Transmission Service. Issues that arise from using these CIDR blocks for other purposes are not covered by the Service-Level Agreement (SLA) for Data Transmission Service. For more information, see the Add to whitelist document.
