WAFV2 / Client / update_ip_set

update_ip_set#

WAFV2.Client.update_ip_set(**kwargs)#

Updates the specified IPSet.

Note

This operation completely replaces the mutable specifications that you already have for the IP set with the ones that you provide to this call.

To modify an IP set, do the following:

  • Retrieve it by calling GetIPSet

  • Update its settings as needed

  • Provide the complete IP set specification to this call

When you make changes to web ACLs or web ACL components, like rules and rule groups, WAF propagates the changes everywhere that the web ACL and its components are stored and used. Your changes are applied within seconds, but there might be a brief period of inconsistency when the changes have arrived in some places and not in others. So, for example, if you change a rule action setting, the action might be the old action in one area and the new action in another area. Or if you add an IP address to an IP set used in a blocking rule, the new address might briefly be blocked in one area while still allowed in another. This temporary inconsistency can occur when you first associate a web ACL with an Amazon Web Services resource and when you change a web ACL that is already associated with a resource. Generally, any inconsistencies of this type last only a few seconds.

Request Syntax

response = client.update_ip_set(
    Name='string',
    Scope='CLOUDFRONT'|'REGIONAL',
    Id='string',
    Description='string',
    Addresses=[
        'string',
    ],
    LockToken='string'
)
Parameters:

  • Name (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

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

  • Scope (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    Specifies whether this is for an Amazon CloudFront distribution or for a regional application. A regional application can be an Application Load Balancer (ALB), an Amazon API Gateway REST API, an AppSync GraphQL API, an Amazon Cognito user pool, or an App Runner service.

    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.

  • Id (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    A unique identifier for the set. This ID is returned in the responses to create and list commands. You provide it to operations like update and delete.

  • Description (string) – A description of the IP set that helps with identification.

  • Addresses (list) –

    [REQUIRED]

    Contains an array of strings that specifies zero or more IP addresses or blocks of IP addresses. 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:

    • To configure WAF to allow, block, or count requests that originated from the IP address 192.0.2.44, specify 192.0.2.44/32.

    • To configure WAF to allow, block, or count requests that originated from IP addresses from 192.0.2.0 to 192.0.2.255, specify 192.0.2.0/24.

    • To configure WAF to allow, block, or count 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.

    • To configure WAF to allow, block, or count 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

    • (string) –

  • LockToken (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    A token used for optimistic locking. WAF returns a token to your get and list requests, to mark the state of the entity at the time of the request. To make changes to the entity associated with the token, you provide the token to operations like update and delete. WAF uses the token to ensure that no changes have been made to the entity since you last retrieved it. If a change has been made, the update fails with a WAFOptimisticLockException. If this happens, perform another get, and use the new token returned by that operation.

Return type:

dict

Returns:

Response Syntax

{
    'NextLockToken': 'string'
}

Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • NextLockToken (string) –

      A token used for optimistic locking. WAF returns this token to your update requests. You use NextLockToken in the same manner as you use LockToken.
