Create Ip Set

wafv2_create_ip_set R Documentation

Creates an IPSet, which you use to identify web requests that originate from specific IP addresses or ranges of IP addresses

Description

Creates an IPSet, which you use to identify web requests that originate from specific IP addresses or ranges of IP addresses. For example, if you're receiving a lot of requests from a ranges of IP addresses, you can configure WAF to block them using an IPSet that lists those IP addresses.

Usage

wafv2_create_ip_set(Name, Scope, Description, IPAddressVersion,
  Addresses, Tags)

Arguments

Name

[required] The name of the IP set. You cannot change the name of an IPSet after you create it.
Scope

[required] Specifies whether this is for a global resource type, such as a Amazon CloudFront distribution.

To work with CloudFront, you must also specify the Region US East (N. Virginia) as follows:

  • CLI - Specify the Region when you use the CloudFront scope: --scope=CLOUDFRONT --region=us-east-1.

  • API and SDKs - For all calls, use the Region endpoint us-east-1.
Description

A description of the IP set that helps with identification.
IPAddressVersion

[required] The version of the IP addresses, either IPV4 or IPV6.
Addresses

[required] Contains an array of strings that specifies zero or more IP addresses or blocks of IP addresses that you want WAF to inspect for in incoming requests. All addresses must be specified using Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) notation. WAF supports all IPv4 and IPv6 CIDR ranges except for ⁠/0⁠.

Example address strings:

  • For requests that originated from the IP address 192.0.2.44, specify ⁠192.0.2.44/32⁠.

  • For requests that originated from IP addresses from 192.0.2.0 to 192.0.2.255, specify ⁠192.0.2.0/24⁠.

  • For requests that originated from the IP address 1111:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0111, specify 1111:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0111/128.

  • For requests that originated from IP addresses 1111:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000 to 1111:0000:0000:0000:ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff, specify 1111:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000:0000/64.

For more information about CIDR notation, see the Wikipedia entry Classless Inter-Domain Routing.

Example JSON Addresses specifications:

  • Empty array: ⁠"Addresses": []⁠

  • Array with one address: ⁠"Addresses": ["192.0.2.44/32"]⁠

  • Array with three addresses: ⁠"Addresses": ["192.0.2.44/32", "192.0.2.0/24", "192.0.0.0/16"]⁠

  • INVALID specification: ⁠"Addresses": [""]⁠ INVALID
