Creating an Edge Policy IP Address List

Create an IP address list for an edge policy in Web Application Firewall.

This task creates an address list in a specified compartment and allows it to be used in a Web Application Acceleration and Security (WAAS) policy and referenced by access rules. Addresses can be IP addresses and CIDR notations.

    1. Open the navigation menu  and select Identity & Security. Under Web Application Firewall, select Edge Policy Resources.
      The Policies list opens. All edge policies are listed in a table.
    2. Under OCI Edge policy resources, select IP address lists.
    3. Select the compartment that you have permission to work in. The IP address list that you create resides in this compartment.
    4. Select Create IP address list.
    5. In the Create IP address list dialog box, complete the options as follows:
      • Name: Enter a name for the IP address list.
      • IP addresses: Enter IP addresses or CIDR notations.
      • Show advanced options: Select this link to display options for tagging the IP address list. See Overview of Tagging.
    6. Choose one of the following:
  • Enter the following command and required parameters: 
    oci waas address-list create --compartment-id compartment_ocid --display-name display_name --addresses addresses [OPTIONS]

    The addresses value is a complex type whose value must be valid JSON. The value can be provided as a string on the command line or passed in as a file using the file://path/to/file syntax.

    See the CLI online help for a list of optional parameters:

    oci waas address-list create --help

    Refer to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure documentation for a complete description of the oci waas address-list create command.

  • Use the CreateAddressList operation to create an IP address list using the API.
