Syntax

To declare this entity in your Amazon CloudFormation template, use the following syntax:

JSON

{ "ALBLowReputationMode" : String }

YAML

ALBLowReputationMode: String

Properties

ALBLowReputationMode

The level of DDoS protection that applies to web ACLs associated with Application Load Balancers. ACTIVE_UNDER_DDOS protection is enabled by default whenever a web ACL is associated with an Application Load Balancer. In the event that an Application Load Balancer experiences high-load conditions or suspected DDoS attacks, the ACTIVE_UNDER_DDOS protection automatically rate limits traffic from known low reputation sources without disrupting Application Load Balancer availability. ALWAYS_ON protection provides constant, always-on monitoring of known low reputation sources for suspected DDoS attacks. While this provides a higher level of protection, there may be potential impacts on legitimate traffic.

Required: Yes

Type: String

Allowed values: ACTIVE_UNDER_DDOS | ALWAYS_ON

Update requires: No interruption
