IP address sets
An IP address set is a named collection of IP addresses or CIDR ranges. Reference a set as the source or destination in a security group rule so you can update many rules by editing one set.
In the console
Choose Networking, IP Address Sets.
To create an IP address set
- Choose Networking, IP Address Sets, then create an IP address set.
- For Name, enter a name.
- For Type, choose IPv4 or IPv6.
- Add one or more entries. For each entry, enter a Name and an IP Address (single address or CIDR, for example
203.0.113.10or10.0.0.0/24). - Choose Save.
Fields
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Display name for the set |
| Type | IPv4 or IPv6 |
| Entries | Named IP addresses or CIDR ranges in the set |
Use with security groups
When you create or edit a security group rule, choose an IP address set as the source (inbound) or destination (outbound) instead of a single CIDR.
Global and managed sets
Some sets are marked Global or Managed. myStack provides these for platform traffic. You can view them, but you cannot edit or delete them.
To edit an IP address set
- Open the set and choose Edit.
- Update the name or entries, then choose Save.
Important
Changes to an IP address set are applied to all security groups that reference the set. Unlike parameter groups, you do not need to re-attach anything—every referencing rule picks up the updated addresses.
To delete an IP address set
- Open the set.
- Choose Delete.
Important
You cannot delete an IP address set that is still referenced by one or more security group rules. Remove or update those rules first.
