Update an IP ACL

This API is used to update an existing IP ACL.

You must specify all of the properties of the IP ACL when calling this API with the PUT HTTP method. When used with PUT, this API doesn't merge the existing IP ACL and your new data. It replaces the existing IP ACL with your new data.

Utilize the PATCH HTTP method to send specific changes to merge into an existing IP ACL.

Request#

Update the IP ACL with the given Id

PUT/api/ip-acl/{ipAccessControlListId}

PATCH/api/ip-acl/{ipAccessControlListId}

For backward compatibility, the PATCH method accepts the same media type (specified by a Content-Type of application/json) and body as the PUT request. You can also use the following media types for different behavior:

JSON Patch/RFC 6902: application/json-patch+json
JSON Merge Patch/RFC 7396: merge-patch+json

For details, see the PATCH documentation.

Using a media type of application/json merges the provided request parameters into the existing object. As a result, all parameters are optional with PATCH: only provide the values you want to change. To remove a value, provide a null value. Patching an Array appends all values in the new list to the old list.

Request Parameters#

ipAccessControlListIdUUIDrequired

The Id of the IP ACL to update.

Request Body#

ipAccessControlList.entriesArrayrequired

A list of IP ranges and the action to apply for each. One and only one entry must have a startIPAddress of * to indicate the default action of the IP ACL.

ipAccessControlList.entries[x].actionStringrequired

The action to take for this IP Range. The possible values are:

Allow - allow all IPs in the range
Block - block all IPs in the range

ipAccessControlList.entries[x].endIPAddressStringrequired

The ending IP (IPv4) for this range. The only time this is not required is when startIPAddress is equal to *, in which case this field is ignored. This value must be greater than or equal to the startIPAddress. To define a range of a single IP address, set this field equal to the value for startIPAddress.

ipAccessControlList.entries[x].startIPAddressStringrequired

The starting IP (IPv4) for this range.

ipAccessControlList.nameStringrequired

The unique name of this IP ACL.
