This is the API Reference for Network Firewall.
This guide is for developers who need detailed information about the Network Firewall API actions, data types, and errors.
* The REST API requires you to handle connection details, such as calculating signatures, handling request retries, and error handling. For general information about using the Amazon Web Services REST APIs, see Amazon Web Services APIs.
To access Network Firewall using the REST API endpoint:
https://network-firewall..amazonaws.com
* Alternatively, you can use one of the Amazon Web Services SDKs to access an API that's tailored to the programming language or platform that you're using. For more information, see Amazon Web Services SDKs.
* For descriptions of Network Firewall features, including and step-by-step instructions on how to use them through the Network Firewall console, see the Network Firewall Developer Guide.
Network Firewall is a stateful, managed, network firewall and intrusion detection and prevention service for Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC). With Network Firewall, you can filter traffic at the perimeter of your VPC. This includes filtering traffic going to and coming from an internet gateway, NAT gateway, or over VPN or Direct Connect. Network Firewall uses rules that are compatible with Suricata, a free, open source network analysis and threat detection engine.
You can use Network Firewall to monitor and protect your VPC traffic in a number of ways. The following are just a few examples:
* Allow domains or IP addresses for known Amazon Web Services service endpoints, such as Amazon S3, and block all other forms of traffic.
* Use custom lists of known bad domains to limit the types of domain names that your applications can access.
* Perform deep packet inspection on traffic entering or leaving your VPC.
* Use stateful protocol detection to filter protocols like HTTPS, regardless of the port used.
To enable Network Firewall for your VPCs, you perform steps in both Amazon VPC and in Network Firewall. For information about using Amazon VPC, see Amazon VPC User Guide.
To start using Network Firewall, do the following:
1. (Optional) If you don't already have a VPC that you want to protect, create it in Amazon VPC.
2. In Amazon VPC, in each Availability Zone where you want to have a firewall endpoint, create a subnet for the sole use of Network Firewall.
3. In Network Firewall, create stateless and stateful rule groups, to define the components of the network traffic filtering behavior that you want your firewall to have.
4. In Network Firewall, create a firewall policy that uses your rule groups and specifies additional default traffic filtering behavior.
5. In Network Firewall, create a firewall and specify your new firewall policy and VPC subnets. Network Firewall creates a firewall endpoint in each subnet that you specify, with the behavior that's defined in the firewall policy.
6. In Amazon VPC, use ingress routing enhancements to route traffic through the new firewall endpoints.

Associates a FirewallPolicy to a Firewall.
A firewall policy defines how to monitor and manage your VPC network traffic, using a collection of inspection rule groups and other settings. Each firewall requires one firewall policy association, and you can use the same firewall policy for multiple firewalls.
Associates the specified subnets in the Amazon VPC to the firewall.
You can specify one subnet for each of the Availability Zones that the VPC spans.
This request creates an Network Firewall firewall endpoint in each of the subnets. To enable the firewall's protections, you must also modify the VPC's route tables for each subnet's Availability Zone, to redirect the traffic that's coming into and going out of the zone through the firewall endpoint.
Creates an Network Firewall Firewall and accompanying FirewallStatus for a
VPC.
The firewall defines the configuration settings for an Network Firewall firewall. The settings that you can define at creation include the firewall policy, the subnets in your VPC to use for the firewall endpoints, and any tags that are attached to the firewall Amazon Web Services resource.
After you create a firewall, you can provide additional settings, like the logging configuration.
To update the settings for a firewall, you use the operations that apply to the
settings
themselves, for example UpdateLoggingConfiguration, AssociateSubnets, and
UpdateFirewallDeleteProtection.
To manage a firewall's tags, use the standard Amazon Web Services resource
tagging operations, ListTagsForResource, TagResource, and UntagResource.
To retrieve information about firewalls, use ListFirewalls and
DescribeFirewall.
Creates the firewall policy for the firewall according to the specifications.
An Network Firewall firewall policy defines the behavior of a firewall, in a collection of stateless and stateful rule groups and other settings. You can use one firewall policy for multiple firewalls.
Creates the specified stateless or stateful rule group, which includes the rules for network traffic inspection, a capacity setting, and tags.
You provide your rule group specification in your request using either
RuleGroup or Rules.
create_t_l_s_inspection_configuration(client, input, options \\ [])
View SourceCreates an Network Firewall TLS inspection configuration.
Network Firewall uses TLS inspection configurations to decrypt your firewall's inbound and outbound SSL/TLS traffic. After decryption, Network Firewall inspects the traffic according to your firewall policy's stateful rules, and then re-encrypts it before sending it to its destination. You can enable inspection of your firewall's inbound traffic, outbound traffic, or both. To use TLS inspection with your firewall, you must first import or provision certificates using ACM, create a TLS inspection configuration, add that configuration to a new firewall policy, and then associate that policy with your firewall.
To update the settings for a TLS inspection configuration, use
UpdateTLSInspectionConfiguration.
To manage a TLS inspection configuration's tags, use the standard Amazon Web
Services resource tagging operations, ListTagsForResource, TagResource, and
UntagResource.
To retrieve information about TLS inspection configurations, use
ListTLSInspectionConfigurations and DescribeTLSInspectionConfiguration.
For more information about TLS inspection configurations, see Inspecting SSL/TLS traffic with TLS inspection configurations in the Network Firewall Developer Guide.
Deletes the specified Firewall and its FirewallStatus.
This operation requires the firewall's DeleteProtection flag to be
FALSE. You can't revert this operation.
You can check whether a firewall is
in use by reviewing the route tables for the Availability Zones where you have
firewall subnet mappings. Retrieve the subnet mappings by calling
DescribeFirewall.
You define and update the route tables through Amazon VPC. As needed, update the
route tables for the
zones to remove the firewall endpoints. When the route tables no longer use the
firewall endpoints,
you can remove the firewall safely.
To delete a firewall, remove the delete protection if you need to using
UpdateFirewallDeleteProtection,
then delete the firewall by calling DeleteFirewall.
Deletes the specified FirewallPolicy.
Deletes a resource policy that you created in a PutResourcePolicy request.
Deletes the specified RuleGroup.
delete_t_l_s_inspection_configuration(client, input, options \\ [])
View SourceDeletes the specified TLSInspectionConfiguration.

rule group.
You can retrieve all objects for a rule group by calling DescribeRuleGroup.
describe_t_l_s_inspection_configuration(client, input, options \\ [])
View SourceReturns the data objects for the specified TLS inspection configuration.
Removes the specified subnet associations from the firewall.
This removes the firewall endpoints from the subnets and removes any network filtering protections that the endpoints were providing.
Retrieves the metadata for the firewall policies that you have defined.
Depending on your setting for max results and the number of firewall policies, a single call might not return the full list.
Retrieves the metadata for the firewalls that you have defined.
If you provide VPC identifiers in your request, this returns only the firewalls for those VPCs.
Depending on your setting for max results and the number of firewalls, a single call might not return the full list.
Retrieves the metadata for the rule groups that you have defined.
Depending on your setting for max results and the number of rule groups, a single call might not return the full list.
list_t_l_s_inspection_configurations(client, input, options \\ [])
View SourceRetrieves the metadata for the TLS inspection configurations that you have defined.
Depending on your setting for max results and the number of TLS inspection configurations, a single call might not return the full list.
Retrieves the tags associated with the specified resource.
Tags are key:value pairs that you can use to categorize and manage your resources, for purposes like billing. For example, you might set the tag key to "customer" and the value to the customer name or ID. You can specify one or more tags to add to each Amazon Web Services resource, up to 50 tags for a resource.
You can tag the Amazon Web Services resources that you manage through Network Firewall: firewalls, firewall policies, and rule groups.
Creates or updates an IAM policy for your rule group or firewall policy.
Use this to share rule groups and firewall policies between accounts. This operation works in conjunction with the Amazon Web Services Resource Access Manager (RAM) service to manage resource sharing for Network Firewall.
Use this operation to create or update a resource policy for your rule group or firewall policy. In the policy, you specify the accounts that you want to share the resource with and the operations that you want the accounts to be able to perform.
When you add an account in the resource policy, you then run the following Resource Access Manager (RAM) operations to access and accept the shared rule group or firewall policy.
*
GetResourceShareInvitations - Returns the Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of the resource share invitations.
*
- Accepts the share invitation for a specified resource share.
For additional information about resource sharing using RAM, see Resource Access Manager User Guide.

Sets the logging configuration for the specified firewall.
To change the logging configuration, retrieve the LoggingConfiguration by
calling DescribeLoggingConfiguration, then change it and provide
the modified object to this update call. You must change the logging
configuration one
LogDestinationConfig at a time inside the retrieved LoggingConfiguration
object.
You can perform only one of the following actions in any call to
UpdateLoggingConfiguration:
*
Create a new log destination object by adding a single
LogDestinationConfig array element to
LogDestinationConfigs.
*
Delete a log destination object by removing a single
LogDestinationConfig array element from
LogDestinationConfigs.
*
Change the LogDestination setting in a single
LogDestinationConfig array element.
You can't change the LogDestinationType or LogType in a
LogDestinationConfig. To change these settings, delete the existing
LogDestinationConfig object and create a new one, using two separate calls
to this update operation.
