The shielding servers are located in different geographical locations. Select location ID and name based on your choice of CDN provider:
| Provider | Location ID | Location name |
|---|---|---|
| Yandex Cloud CDN | 1 | Russia / Moscow / msk |
| EdgeCDN | 130 | Russia / Moscow-EC / M9 | M9P |
To enable origin shielding for a resource:
Management console
- In the management console, select the folder where your resource is located.
- Go to Cloud CDN.
- Click the resource name.
- Navigate to the Origin shielding tab.
- In the top-right corner, enable the origin shielding option.
- In the Shielding settings window, select the required location in the Location field.
- Click Activate.
Once enabled, the shielding status will change from Not activated to Active.
It may take up to 15 minutes for the new settings of the existing resource to apply to the CDN servers. After that, we recommend purging the resource cache.
