Create a WAF Policy

You use a WAF policy to configure the access rules, rate limiting rules, and protection rules for your Web Application Firewall service.

When creating and configuring a WAF policy for your custom URL, you'll need to specify the load balancer used for your Visual Builder instance.

To create a WAF policy and specify the load balancer:

  1. Sign in to the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console and open WAF Policies under Security.
  2. Select the compartment you want the WAF policy to be created in and click Create WAF Policy.
  3. Enter the policy name in the Create WAF Policy dialog box.
  4. Accept all other defaults, and then click Next until you reach the Select Enforcement Point step.
  5. In the Select Enforcement Point step, select the load balancer you created and complete the WAF configuration.
  6. Click Create WAF Policy.

Now that the policy is created and you've configured it to use your load balancer, you can configure the policy rules. You can edit the policy configuration at any time. When configuring the policy, you can use the pre-defined actions, or create your own customized actions. For more about WAF policies, see Getting Started with Web Application Firewall Policies.
