Alibaba Cloud EIP

Alibaba Cloud EIP Metrics display, including network bandwidth, network packets, rate limit packet loss rate, bandwidth utilization, etc.

Configuration

Install Func

It is recommended to activate TrueWatch Integration - Extensions - DataFlux Func (Automata)

For self-deploying Func, refer to Self-deploying Func

Activate Script

Note: Please prepare the Alibaba Cloud AK that meets the requirements in advance (for simplicity, you can directly grant the global read-only permission ReadOnlyAccess)
