Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) protection enables traffic monitoring and prevents potential DDoS attacks to an instance. It activates a set of tools that detect and block network flooding attempts, ensuring the instance remains active and operational.
Follow this guide to enable DDoS protection on a Vultr Cloud Compute instance using the Vultr Customer Portal, or Terraform.
Open your Terraform configuration for the existing Cloud Compute instance.
Enable DDoS protection in the instance resource.
resource "vultr_instance" "cc" {
# ...existing fields (region, plan, os_id, label, etc.)
ddos_protection = true
}
Apply the configuration and observe the following output:
Apply complete! Resources: 0 added, 1 changed, 0 destroyed.
