Import an address template for configuring rules
After creating an address template, you can go to the Edge firewall rules or NAT firewall rules page to call the template for configuring access control rules. The following example shows how to import an address template for configuring edge firewall rules. This also applies to NAT firewall rules.
Note
The access rules configured with the address template are valid for all IP addresses in the template.
Address templates can only be used to configure edge firewall rules and NAT firewall rules, rather than inter-VPC firewall rules.
Inbound rules only allow importing address templates for Access source, while Outbound rules only allow importing templates for Access destination.
Import an address template for inbound rules
a. On the Edge firewall rules page, select Inbound rules -> Add rule.
b. In the "Add inbound rule" window displayed, select "Address template" for "Access destination type", and click the "Access source" drop-down list to select an existing address template for configuring rules.
﻿
Import an address template for outbound rules
a. On the Edge firewall rules page, select Outbound rules -> Add rule.
b. In the "Add outbound rule" window displayed, select "Address template" for "Access destination type", and click the "Access destination" drop-down list to select an existing address template for configuring rules.
