A rule group defines a collection of rules to inspect and control web requests that you can use in a WebACL. When you create a rule group, you define an immutable capacity limit. If you update a rule group, you must stay within the capacity. This allows others to reuse the rule group with confidence in its capacity requirements.

Properties

NameTypeDescription
Public Property ARN System.String

Gets and sets the property ARN.

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the entity.

Public Property AvailableLabels System.Collections.Generic.List<Amazon.WAFV2.Model.LabelSummary>

Gets and sets the property AvailableLabels.

The labels that one or more rules in this rule group add to matching web requests. These labels are defined in the RuleLabels for a Rule.

Public Property Capacity System.Int64

Gets and sets the property Capacity.

The web ACL capacity units (WCUs) required for this rule group.

When you create your own rule group, you define this, and you cannot change it after creation. When you add or modify the rules in a rule group, WAF enforces this limit. You can check the capacity for a set of rules using CheckCapacity.

WAF uses WCUs to calculate and control the operating resources that are used to run your rules, rule groups, and web ACLs. WAF calculates capacity differently for each rule type, to reflect the relative cost of each rule. Simple rules that cost little to run use fewer WCUs than more complex rules that use more processing power. Rule group capacity is fixed at creation, which helps users plan their web ACL WCU usage when they use a rule group. For more information, see WAF web ACL capacity units (WCU) in the WAF Developer Guide.

Public Property ConsumedLabels System.Collections.Generic.List<Amazon.WAFV2.Model.LabelSummary>

Gets and sets the property ConsumedLabels.

The labels that one or more rules in this rule group match against in label match statements. These labels are defined in a LabelMatchStatement specification, in the Statement definition of a rule.

Public Property CustomResponseBodies System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<System.String, Amazon.WAFV2.Model.CustomResponseBody>

Gets and sets the property CustomResponseBodies.

A map of custom response keys and content bodies. When you create a rule with a block action, you can send a custom response to the web request. You define these for the rule group, and then use them in the rules that you define in the rule group.

For information about customizing web requests and responses, see Customizing web requests and responses in WAF in the WAF Developer Guide.

For information about the limits on count and size for custom request and response settings, see WAF quotas in the WAF Developer Guide.

Public Property Description System.String

Gets and sets the property Description.

A description of the rule group that helps with identification.

Public Property Id System.String

Gets and sets the property Id.

A unique identifier for the rule group. This ID is returned in the responses to create and list commands. You provide it to operations like update and delete.

Public Property LabelNamespace System.String

Gets and sets the property LabelNamespace.

The label namespace prefix for this rule group. All labels added by rules in this rule group have this prefix.

  • The syntax for the label namespace prefix for your rule groups is the following:

    awswaf::rulegroup::

  • When a rule with a label matches a web request, WAF adds the fully qualified label to the request. A fully qualified label is made up of the label namespace from the rule group or web ACL where the rule is defined and the label from the rule, separated by a colon:

Public Property Name System.String

Gets and sets the property Name.

The name of the rule group. You cannot change the name of a rule group after you create it.

Public Property Rules System.Collections.Generic.List<Amazon.WAFV2.Model.Rule>

Gets and sets the property Rules.

The Rule statements used to identify the web requests that you want to manage. Each rule includes one top-level statement that WAF uses to identify matching web requests, and parameters that govern how WAF handles them.

Public Property VisibilityConfig Amazon.WAFV2.Model.VisibilityConfig

Gets and sets the property VisibilityConfig.

Defines and enables Amazon CloudWatch metrics and web request sample collection.
