WafClient Class

Member Function Documentation

WafClient::WafClient(const QtAws::Core::AwsRegion::Region region = QtAws::Core::AwsRegion::InvalidRegion, QtAws::Core::AwsAbstractCredentials *credentials = NULL, QNetworkAccessManager * const manager = NULL, QObject * const parent = 0)

Constructs a WafClient object.

The new client object will region, credentials, and manager for network operations.

The new object will be owned by parent, if set.

WafClient::WafClient(const QUrl &endpoint, QtAws::Core::AwsAbstractCredentials *credentials = NULL, QNetworkAccessManager * const manager = NULL, QObject * const parent = 0)

This function overloads WafClient().

This overload allows the caller to specify the specific endpoint to send requests to. Typically, it is easier to use the alternative constructor, which allows the caller to specify an AWS region instead, in which case this client will determine the correct endpoint for the given region automatically (via AwsEndpoint::getEndpoint).

See also QtAws::Core::AwsEndpoint::getEndpoint.

[slot] CreateByteMatchSetResponse *WafClient::createByteMatchSet(const CreateByteMatchSetRequest &request)

Sends request to the WafClient service, and returns a pointer to an CreateByteMatchSetResponse object to track the result.

Note: The caller is to take responsbility for the resulting pointer.

Creates a <code>ByteMatchSet</code>. You then use <a>UpdateByteMatchSet</a> to identify the part of a web request that you want AWS WAF to inspect, such as the values of the <code>User-Agent</code> header or the query string. For example, you can create a <code>ByteMatchSet</code> that matches any requests with <code>User-Agent</code> headers that contain the string <code>BadBot</code>. You can then configure AWS WAF to reject those

requests>

To create and configure a <code>ByteMatchSet</code>, perform the following

steps> <ol> <li>

Use <a>GetChangeToken</a> to get the change token that you provide in the <code>ChangeToken</code> parameter of a <code>CreateByteMatchSet</code>

[slot] CreateIPSetResponse *WafClient::createIPSet(const CreateIPSetRequest &request)

Sends request to the WafClient service, and returns a pointer to an CreateIPSetResponse object to track the result.

Note: The caller is to take responsbility for the resulting pointer.

Creates an <a>IPSet</a>, which you use to specify which web requests you want to allow or block based on the IP addresses that the requests originate from. For example, if you're receiving a lot of requests from one or more individual IP addresses or one or more ranges of IP addresses and you want to block the requests, you can create an <code>IPSet</code> that contains those IP addresses and then configure AWS WAF to block the requests.

</p

To create and configure an <code>IPSet</code>, perform the following

steps> <ol> <li>

Use <a>GetChangeToken</a> to get the change token that you provide in the <code>ChangeToken</code> parameter of a <code>CreateIPSet</code>

request> </li> <li>

[slot] CreateRateBasedRuleResponse *WafClient::createRateBasedRule(const CreateRateBasedRuleRequest &request)

Sends request to the WafClient service, and returns a pointer to an CreateRateBasedRuleResponse object to track the result.

Note: The caller is to take responsbility for the resulting pointer.

Creates a <a>RateBasedRule</a>. The <code>RateBasedRule</code> contains a <code>RateLimit</code>, which specifies the maximum number of requests that AWS WAF allows from a specified IP address in a five-minute period. The <code>RateBasedRule</code> also contains the <code>IPSet</code> objects, <code>ByteMatchSet</code> objects, and other predicates that identify the requests that you want to count or block if these requests exceed the

<code>RateLimit</code>>

If you add more than one predicate to a <code>RateBasedRule</code>, a request not only must exceed the <code>RateLimit</code>, but it also must match all the specifications to be counted or blocked. For example, suppose you add the following to a

<code>RateBasedRule</code>> <ul> <li>

An <code>IPSet</code> that matches the IP address <code>192.0.2.44/32</code>

</p </li> <li>

A <code>ByteMatchSet</code> that matches <code>BadBot</code> in the <code>User-Agent</code>

heade> </li> </ul>

Further, you specify a <code>RateLimit</code> of

15,000>

You then add the <code>RateBasedRule</code> to a <code>WebACL</code> and specify that you want to block requests that meet the conditions in the rule. For a request to be blocked, it must come from the IP address 192.0.2.44 <i>and</i> the <code>User-Agent</code> header in the request must contain the value <code>BadBot</code>. Further, requests that match these two conditions must be received at a rate of more than 15,000 requests every five minutes. If both conditions are met and the rate is exceeded, AWS WAF blocks the requests. If the rate drops below 15,000 for a five-minute period, AWS WAF no longer blocks the

requests>

As a second example, suppose you want to limit requests to a particular page on your site. To do this, you could add the following to a

<code>RateBasedRule</code>> <ul> <li>

A <code>ByteMatchSet</code> with <code>FieldToMatch</code> of <code>URI</code>

</p </li> <li>

A <code>PositionalConstraint</code> of <code>STARTS_WITH</code>

</p </li> <li>

A <code>TargetString</code> of <code>login</code>

</p </li> </ul>

Further, you specify a <code>RateLimit</code> of

15,000>

By adding this <code>RateBasedRule</code> to a <code>WebACL</code>, you could limit requests to your login page without affecting the rest of your

site>

To create and configure a <code>RateBasedRule</code>, perform the following

steps> <ol> <li>

Create and update the predicates that you want to include in the rule. For more information, see <a>CreateByteMatchSet</a>, <a>CreateIPSet</a>, and

<a>CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet</a>> </li> <li>

Use <a>GetChangeToken</a> to get the change token that you provide in the <code>ChangeToken</code> parameter of a <code>CreateRule</code>

request> </li> <li>

1111::0111/12> </li> <li>

1111::111/12> </li> </ul>

You use an <code>IPSet</code> to specify which web requests you want to allow or block based on the IP addresses that the requests originated from. For example, if you're receiving a lot of requests from one or a small number of IP addresses and you want to block the requests, you can create an <code>IPSet</code> that specifies those IP addresses, and then configure AWS WAF to block the requests.

</p

To create and configure an <code>IPSet</code>, perform the following

[slot] UpdateRateBasedRuleResponse *WafClient::updateRateBasedRule(const UpdateRateBasedRuleRequest &request)

Sends request to the WafClient service, and returns a pointer to an UpdateRateBasedRuleResponse object to track the result.

Note: The caller is to take responsbility for the resulting pointer.

Inserts or deletes <a>Predicate</a> objects in a rule and updates the <code>RateLimit</code> in the rule.

</p

Each <code>Predicate</code> object identifies a predicate, such as a <a>ByteMatchSet</a> or an <a>IPSet</a>, that specifies the web requests that you want to block or count. The <code>RateLimit</code> specifies the number of requests every five minutes that triggers the

rule>

If you add more than one predicate to a <code>RateBasedRule</code>, a request must match all the predicates and exceed the <code>RateLimit</code> to be counted or blocked. For example, suppose you add the following to a

<code>RateBasedRule</code>> <ul> <li>

An <code>IPSet</code> that matches the IP address <code>192.0.2.44/32</code>

</p </li> <li>

A <code>ByteMatchSet</code> that matches <code>BadBot</code> in the <code>User-Agent</code>

heade> </li> </ul>

Further, you specify a <code>RateLimit</code> of

15,000>

You then add the <code>RateBasedRule</code> to a <code>WebACL</code> and specify that you want to block requests that satisfy the rule. For a request to be blocked, it must come from the IP address 192.0.2.44 <i>and</i> the <code>User-Agent</code> header in the request must contain the value <code>BadBot</code>. Further, requests that match these two conditions much be received at a rate of more than 15,000 every five minutes. If the rate drops below this limit, AWS WAF no longer blocks the

requests>

As a second example, suppose you want to limit requests to a particular page on your site. To do this, you could add the following to a

<code>RateBasedRule</code>> <ul> <li>

A <code>ByteMatchSet</code> with <code>FieldToMatch</code> of <code>URI</code>

</p </li> <li>

A <code>PositionalConstraint</code> of <code>STARTS_WITH</code>

</p </li> <li>

A <code>TargetString</code> of <code>login</code>

</p </li> </ul>

Further, you specify a <code>RateLimit</code> of

15,000>

By adding this <code>RateBasedRule</code> to a <code>WebACL</code>, you could limit requests to your login page without affecting the rest of your

[slot] UpdateRuleResponse *WafClient::updateRule(const UpdateRuleRequest &request)

Sends request to the WafClient service, and returns a pointer to an UpdateRuleResponse object to track the result.

Note: The caller is to take responsbility for the resulting pointer.

Inserts or deletes <a>Predicate</a> objects in a <code>Rule</code>. Each <code>Predicate</code> object identifies a predicate, such as a <a>ByteMatchSet</a> or an <a>IPSet</a>, that specifies the web requests that you want to allow, block, or count. If you add more than one predicate to a <code>Rule</code>, a request must match all of the specifications to be allowed, blocked, or counted. For example, suppose you add the following to a <code>Rule</code>:

</p <ul> <li>

A <code>ByteMatchSet</code> that matches the value <code>BadBot</code> in the <code>User-Agent</code>

heade> </li> <li>

An <code>IPSet</code> that matches the IP address <code>192.0.2.44</code>

</p </li> </ul>

You then add the <code>Rule</code> to a <code>WebACL</code> and specify that you want to block requests that satisfy the <code>Rule</code>. For a request to be blocked, the <code>User-Agent</code> header in the request must contain the value <code>BadBot</code> <i>and</i> the request must originate from the IP address

192.0.2.44>

To create and configure a <code>Rule</code>, perform the following

steps> <ol> <li>

[slot] UpdateWebACLResponse *WafClient::updateWebACL(const UpdateWebACLRequest &request)

Sends request to the WafClient service, and returns a pointer to an UpdateWebACLResponse object to track the result.

Note: The caller is to take responsbility for the resulting pointer.

Inserts or deletes <a>ActivatedRule</a> objects in a <code>WebACL</code>. Each <code>Rule</code> identifies web requests that you want to allow, block, or count. When you update a <code>WebACL</code>, you specify the following

values> <ul> <li>

A default action for the <code>WebACL</code>, either <code>ALLOW</code> or <code>BLOCK</code>. AWS WAF performs the default action if a request doesn't match the criteria in any of the <code>Rules</code> in a

<code>WebACL</code>> </li> <li>

The <code>Rules</code> that you want to add and/or delete. If you want to replace one <code>Rule</code> with another, you delete the existing <code>Rule</code> and add the new

one> </li> <li>

For each <code>Rule</code>, whether you want AWS WAF to allow requests, block requests, or count requests that match the conditions in the

<code>Rule</code>> </li> <li>

The order in which you want AWS WAF to evaluate the <code>Rules</code> in a <code>WebACL</code>. If you add more than one <code>Rule</code> to a <code>WebACL</code>, AWS WAF evaluates each request against the <code>Rules</code> in order based on the value of <code>Priority</code>. (The <code>Rule</code> that has the lowest value for <code>Priority</code> is evaluated first.) When a web request matches all of the predicates (such as <code>ByteMatchSets</code> and <code>IPSets</code>) in a <code>Rule</code>, AWS WAF immediately takes the corresponding action, allow or block, and doesn't evaluate the request against the remaining <code>Rules</code> in the <code>WebACL</code>, if any.

</p </li> </ul>

To create and configure a <code>WebACL</code>, perform the following

steps> <ol> <li>

Create and update the predicates that you want to include in <code>Rules</code>. For more information, see <a>CreateByteMatchSet</a>, <a>UpdateByteMatchSet</a>, <a>CreateIPSet</a>, <a>UpdateIPSet</a>, <a>CreateSqlInjectionMatchSet</a>, and

<a>UpdateSqlInjectionMatchSet</a>> </li> <li>

Create and update the <code>Rules</code> that you want to include in the <code>WebACL</code>. For more information, see <a>CreateRule</a> and

<a>UpdateRule</a>> </li> <li>

request> </li> <li>

Submit an <code>UpdateWebACL</code> request to specify the <code>Rules</code> that you want to include in the <code>WebACL</code>, to specify the default action, and to associate the <code>WebACL</code> with a CloudFront distribution.

</p </li> </ol>

Be aware that if you try to add a RATE_BASED rule to a web ACL without setting the rule type when first creating the rule, the <a>UpdateWebACL</a> request will fail because the request tries to add a REGULAR rule (the default rule type) with the specified ID, which does not exist.
