Domain name management

Limitations

• If your accelerated service is deployed in mainland China, or if your acceleration region is in mainland China, the accelerated domain name must have a valid ICP filing.

  If you do not have a valid ICP filing in these scenarios, the Alibaba Cloud monitoring system identifies this and blocks access to your website. The Domain Name Management feature will not provide ICP filing compliance for the domain name or its subdomains.

• An accelerated domain name cannot be associated with the same Global Accelerator instance more than once.

• The system removes an accelerated domain name from the Alibaba Cloud ICP filing system when you remove all its associations. This happens when you perform any of the following actions:

  • Remove all associated Global Accelerator instances.

  • Delete the domain name from Domain Name Management.

  • All associated Global Accelerator instances expire and are released.

Add a domain

Add an accelerated domain name and associate it with a Global Accelerator instance.

1. Log on to the GA console.

2. Navigate to the Domain Names page by using one of the following methods.

   • Method 1: From the Instances page

     On the Instances page, click Domain Names.

   • Method 2: From the Domain Name Management page

     1. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Standard Instance > Domain Names.

     2. On the Domain Names page, click Domain Names.

3. On the Domain Names page, configure the following parameters and click OK.

   Parameter	Description
   Accelerated Domain Name	Enter the primary domain name. For example, example.com.
   Associated Instance	Select the Global Accelerator instance that you want to associate with the accelerated domain name.

4. In the dialog box that appears, confirm that the domain name has been added and associated with the instance, check its ICP filing status, and then click OK.

   • If the domain name has a valid ICP filing, the system provides ICP filing compliance for all its subdomains that are accelerated by this Global Accelerator instance.

   • If the domain name does not have a valid ICP filing, it is at risk of being blocked for non-compliance. You must complete the ICP filing for the domain name.

View and update ICP filing status

If your domain name has an abnormal status, the system sends a notification to help you avoid access disruption.

1. Log on to the GA console.

2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Standard Instance > Domain Names.

3. On the Domain Names page, find the target accelerated domain name and view its status in the ICP Filing Status column.

   You can also click the icon next to ICP Filing Status to filter domains by a specific status.

4. In the Actions column, click Update ICP Filing Status to get the latest ICP filing status for the accelerated domain name.

Manage associated instances

To associate a domain name with additional Global Accelerator instances:

1. Log on to the GA console.

2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Standard Instance > Domain Names.

3. On the Domain Names page, find the target domain name and click Associate Instance in the Actions column.

4. In the Associate Instance panel, you can add or remove associated Global Accelerator instances.

   • Add an associated instance

     1. Click Add Instance.

     2. In the Add Instance panel, select the Global Accelerator instance that you want to associate and click OK.

   • Remove an associated instance

     Warning

     Removing an instance disassociates it from the domain name. This action does not affect the domain's existing ICP filing status but may invalidate the ICP filing compliance provided by Alibaba Cloud.

     1. In the Actions column of the Global Accelerator instance that you want to remove, click Remove.

        You can also select the Global Accelerator instances that you want to remove and click Batch Remove.

     2. In the Remove Instances dialog box, click OK.

Delete a domain

1. Log on to the GA console.

2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Standard Instance > Domain Names.

3. On the Domain Names page, find the domain name that you want to delete and click Delete in the Actions column.

4. In the dialog box that appears, confirm the domain name to be deleted and its associated instances, and then click OK.
