AWS WAF endpoints and quotas - AWS General Reference

AWS WAF endpoints and quotas

The following are the service endpoints and service quotas for this service. To connect programmatically to an AWS service, you use an endpoint. In addition to the standard AWS endpoints, some AWS services offer FIPS endpoints in selected Regions. For more information, see AWS service endpoints. Service quotas, also referred to as limits, are the maximum number of service resources or operations for your AWS account. For more information, see AWS service quotas.

Note

This page provides information related the latest version of AWS WAF, released in November 2019. The names of the entities that you use to access AWS WAF, like endpoints and namespaces, all have the versioning information added, like V2 or v2, to distinguish from the prior version.
