Setup IP AllowList for Connections from EPM Cloud

You can satisfy the requirement of allowing access to your cloud environments from only specific IP addresses. Add the outbound IP addresses of the data centers or regions where your Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud environment is hosted to an IP AllowList. See Outbound IP Addresses of EPM Cloud Data Centers and Regions in Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud Operations Guide.

Allow an EPM Cloud environment to accept connections from other EPM Cloud environments

Once you have setup allowlist on an EPM Cloud environment, the access from other EPM Cloud environments is blocked too. In this scenario, to allow access from another EPM Cloud environment, you must add the outbound IP addresses of the data center or region where the requesting environment is located to the IP AllowList of the current environment.

For example, if you are executing EPM Automate copySnapshotFromInstance command from an environment that has IP AllowList configured, the outbound IP addresses of the data center or region where the source environment is located must be added to the AllowList. This applies to Copy Application Snapshot REST API, Clone Environment screen in Migration, cloneEnvironment EPM Automate command and REST API, and Navigation Flows as well.

Allow a Fusion or NetSuite environment to accept connections from an EPM Cloud environment

Once you have setup AllowList on a Fusion or NetSuite environment, the access from an EPM Cloud environment is blocked too. To allow this access, you can update the IP AllowList in Fusion or NetSuite environment to include the outbound IP addresses of the data center or region where EPM Cloud environment is located.
