Community Update - [Action required] Deprecation notice for WAF Managed Rules, Firewall Rules, and Rate Limiting Rules

Great thanks.

Another feature that will help us is to allow searching in all lists from the front end.
https://dash.cloudflare.com/.../configurations/lists
Currently we have to go to each list and search within.

It would be great if we can just search through all lists so we don’t have to find which rule blocked/ignored an IP then open the rule to find which list it’s using.

Thanks!

ChatGPT Says:
The requested feature aims to enhance user experience by providing a streamlined search functionality across all lists directly from the front end of the platform. Currently, users must navigate through each individual list to conduct searches, which can be time-consuming and cumbersome, particularly when trying to pinpoint specific rules or entries that affect a particular IP address.

By implementing a unified search capability that spans across all lists, users will gain efficiency and convenience in identifying relevant rules or entries associated with a specific IP address. This feature would eliminate the need for users to manually traverse multiple lists, allowing them to quickly locate the pertinent information they need without unnecessary navigation steps.

Additionally, this feature would simplify the troubleshooting process by enabling users to directly search for the rule or list that might have blocked or ignored a particular IP address, saving valuable time and effort in diagnosing issues and making necessary adjustments.

In summary, the proposed enhancement to enable searching across all lists from the front end of the platform would significantly improve usability and efficiency for users managing configurations and rules, ultimately enhancing their overall experience with the platform.

Hi Daniele,

Date when old managed rules will stop is still 1 May 2024 or extended to 1 July 2024?

Hi @daniele , ( sorry for posting again, i forgot to mention you )

Date when old WAF managed rules will stop is still 1 May 2024 or extended to 1 July 2024?

Hello,

sunset date for Firewall Rules API, old WAF Managed Rules and old Rate Limiting has been extended to July 1st. After that date the products could be turned off at any time and your configuration will be forced migrated.

Thanks

Hi @daniele,

Looks like in Lists we can’t add a specific ipv6 when using the list for blocking purposes.
Is it possible to add a single ipv6 or we have to use the CIDR /64.
In IP Access Rules we were able to add full ipv6 without any issues.

I understand we can add single ipv6 in the Custom Rule but that increases the management overall.

Any suggestions? - is it possible to allow adding single ipv6 on lists?

Thanks!

We may just go with /64.
Any suggestions are still appreciated.

Thanks!

No, as you have found it requires a /64.

@daniele, @sjr
We need a sort option on the IPs within the list by Created or Modified date. Especially since we can’t search in comments yet.

If we add ip from the api, we can’t tell what was added recently as it’s sorting by ip address.

@daniele, @sjr

Also, we are missing CIDR search in Analytics & Logs. We can only search by single IP which will not be sufficient when we have to find what was blocked by the CIDR from the list.

It would be a great feature if we can use a list to search in Analytics & Logs!

Thanks!

Thanks for your feedback.

Allowing individual IPv6 in list is on our backlog.
Happy to take the Feature Request of sorting IPs by date, search in comments and CIDR in analytics.

@daniele,
We need the sorting feature sooner than later. We need to analyze the recently added IPs as the IPs are added daily.
Or get us the proper search feature like we have in WAF>Tools.

If you can’t get this in soon, please let us know so we can make our own solution.

Thanks,

Zunair

Hi,
Any update on the Feature Request of sorting IPs by date, search in comments and CIDR in analytics.

Thanks
