Best Practices for Using Identity Cloud Service Network Perimeter with EPM Cloud

You can configure a network perimeter in Oracle Identity Cloud Service so that only users who use a particular IP address or IP address that fall within in a specific range are allowed to sign in to Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud. Using this method, you can restrict user access to all environments belonging to a specific Oracle Identity Cloud Service domain. Additionally, you can set up IP allowlist for specific environments in a domain  using the getIPAllowlist and setIPAllowlist EPM Automate commands.The Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud Operations Guide now contains best practices for when to use the Identity Cloud Service network perimeter versus IP allowlists on individual environments.

Applies to: Account Reconciliation, Enterprise Data Management, Enterprise Profitability and Cost Management, Financial Consolidation and Close, FreeForm, Narrative Reporting, Planning, Profitability and Cost Management, Tax Reporting

Business Benefit: Establishing a network perimeter creates you a consolidated configuration to control access to all your EPM Cloud environments in an identity domain.
