A Firewall may have up to 25 rules across its inbound and outbound rulesets.

Multiple rules are applied in order. If two rules conflict, the first rule takes precedence. For example, if the first rule accepts inbound traffic from an address, and the second rule drops inbound traffic the same address, the first rule applies and inbound traffic from that address is accepted.

outbound
array

The outbound rules for the firewall, as a JSON array.

inbound_policy
string
Enum: "ACCEPT""DROP"

The default behavior for inbound traffic. This setting can be overridden by updating the inbound.action property of the Firewall Rule.

outbound_policy
