NETWORK_SECURITY-LIST(1)

NAME
network_security-list -

DESCRIPTION

A set of virtual firewall rules for your VCN. Security lists are configured at the subnet level, but the rules are applied to the ingress and egress traffic for the individual instances in the subnet. The rules can be stateful or stateless. For more information, see Security Lists <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Network/Concepts/securitylists.htm>. Note: Compare security lists to
`
NetworkSecurityGroup <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/api/#/en/iaas/latest/NetworkSecurityGroup/>`__s, which let you apply a set of security rules to a specific set of VNICs instead of an entire subnet. Oracle recommends using network security groups instead of security lists, although you can use either or both together.

Important: Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Compute service images automatically include firewall rules (for example, Linux iptables, Windows firewall). If there are issues with some type of access to an instance, make sure both the security lists associated with the instance’s subnet and the instance’s firewall rules are set correctly.

To use any of the API operations, you must be authorized in an IAM policy. If you’re not authorized, talk to an administrator. If you’re an administrator who needs to write policies to give users access, see Getting Started with Policies <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Identity/Concepts/policygetstarted.htm>.

  Description

Moves a security list into a different compartment within the same tenancy. For information about moving resources between compartments, see Moving Resources to a Different Compartment <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Identity/Tasks/managingcompartments.htm#moveRes>.

  Usage

oci network security-list change-compartment [OPTIONS]

  Required Parameters

--compartment-id, -c [text]

    The OCID <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm> of the compartment to move the security list to.

--security-list-id [text]

    The OCID <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm> of the security list.

  Optional Parameters

--from-json [text]

    Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.

    The --generate-full-command-json-input option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

    Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

•   Usage

•   Required Parameters

•   Optional Parameters

•   Global Parameters

•   Examples

  Description

Creates a new security list for the specified VCN. For more information about security lists, see Security Lists <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Network/Concepts/securitylists.htm>. For information on the number of rules you can have in a security list, see Service Limits <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/servicelimits.htm>.

For the purposes of access control, you must provide the OCID of the compartment where you want the security list to reside. Notice that the security list doesn’t have to be in the same compartment as the VCN, subnets, or other Networking Service components. If you’re not sure which compartment to use, put the security list in the same compartment as the VCN. For more information about compartments and access control, see Overview of the IAM Service <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/Identity/Concepts/overview.htm>. For information about OCIDs, see Resource Identifiers <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/identifiers.htm>.

You may optionally specify a display name for the security list, otherwise a default is provided. It does not have to be unique, and you can change it. Avoid entering confidential information.

    This option is a JSON list with items of type EgressSecurityRule. For documentation on EgressSecurityRule please see our API reference: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/api/#/en/iaas/20160918/datatypes/EgressSecurityRule. This 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.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

    Example:

    '[{"destination": "10.0.2.0/24", "protocol": "6", "isStateless": true, "tcpOptions": {"destinationPortRange": {"max": 1521, "min": 1521}, "sourcePortRange": {"max": 1521, "min": 1521}}}]'

--force

    Perform update without prompting for confirmation.

--freeform-tags [complex type]

    Free-form tags for this resource. Each tag is a simple key-value pair with no predefined name, type, or namespace. For more information, see Resource Tags <https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/General/Concepts/resourcetags.htm>.

    Example:

    {"Department": "Finance"}

    This 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.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

--from-json [text]

    Provide input to this command as a JSON document from a file using the file://path-to/file syntax.

    The --generate-full-command-json-input option can be used to generate a sample json file to be used with this command option. The key names are pre-populated and match the command option names (converted to camelCase format, e.g. compartment-id –> compartmentId), while the values of the keys need to be populated by the user before using the sample file as an input to this command. For any command option that accepts multiple values, the value of the key can be a JSON array.

    Options can still be provided on the command line. If an option exists in both the JSON document and the command line then the command line specified value will be used.

    For examples on usage of this option, please see our “using CLI with advanced JSON options” link: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliusing.htm#AdvancedJSONOptions

--if-match [text]

    For optimistic concurrency control. In the PUT or DELETE call for a resource, set the if-match parameter to the value of the etag from a previous GET or POST response for that resource. The resource will be updated or deleted only if the etag you provide matches the resource’s current etag value.

--ingress-security-rules [complex type]

    Rules for allowing ingress IP packets.

    This option is a JSON list with items of type IngressSecurityRule. For documentation on IngressSecurityRule please see our API reference: https://docs.cloud.oracle.com/api/#/en/iaas/20160918/datatypes/IngressSecurityRule. This 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.

    The --generate-param-json-input option can be used to generate an example of the JSON which must be provided. We recommend storing this example in a file, modifying it as needed and then passing it back in via the file:// syntax.

    Example:

    '[{"source": "10.0.2.0/24", "protocol": "6", "isStateless": true, "tcpOptions": {"destinationPortRange": {"max": 1521, "min": 1521}, "sourcePortRange": {"max": 1521, "min": 1521}}}]'

--max-wait-seconds [integer]

    The maximum time to wait for the resource to reach the lifecycle state defined by --wait-for-state. Defaults to 1200 seconds.

--wait-for-state [text]

    This operation creates, modifies or deletes a resource that has a defined lifecycle state. Specify this option to perform the action and then wait until the resource reaches a given lifecycle state. Multiple states can be specified, returning on the first state. For example, --wait-for-state SUCCEEDED --wait-for-state FAILED would return on whichever lifecycle state is reached first. If timeout is reached, a return code of 2 is returned. For any other error, a return code of 1 is returned.

    Accepted values are:

    AVAILABLE, PROVISIONING, TERMINATED, TERMINATING

--wait-interval-seconds [integer]

    Check every --wait-interval-seconds to see whether the resource to see if it has reached the lifecycle state defined by --wait-for-state. Defaults to 30 seconds.

  Global Parameters

Use oci --help for help on global parameters.

--auth-purpose, --auth, --cert-bundle, --cli-rc-file, --config-file, --debug, --defaults-file, --endpoint, --generate-full-command-json-input, --generate-param-json-input, --help, --latest-version, --max-retries, --no-retry, --opc-client-request-id, --opc-request-id, --output, --profile, --query, --raw-output, --region, --release-info, --request-id, --version, -?, -d, -h, -v

  Examples

Copy and paste the following example into a JSON file, replacing the example parameters with your own.

    oci network security-list create --generate-param-json-input egress-security-rules > egress-security-rules.json
    oci network security-list create --generate-param-json-input ingress-security-rules > ingress-security-rules.json

Copy the following CLI commands into a file named example.sh. Run the command by typing “bash example.sh” and replacing the example parameters with your own.

Please note this sample will only work in the POSIX-compliant bash-like shell. You need to set up the OCI configuration <https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/API/SDKDocs/cliinstall.htm#configfile> and appropriate security policies <https://docs.oracle.com/en-us/iaas/Content/Identity/Concepts/policygetstarted.htm> before trying the examples.
