Description

Replace the firewall rules for a specified database. This command requires the --rule flag.

You can configure multiple rules for the firewall by passing additional arguments in a comma-separated list with the --rule flag. Each rule passed using the --rule flag must be in a <type>:<value> format where: type is the type of resource that the firewall rule allows to access the database cluster. Possible values are: droplet, k8s, ip_addr, tag, app - value is either the ID of a specific resource, the name of a tag applied to a group of resources, or the IP address that the firewall rule allows to access the database cluster.

Example

The following example replaces the firewall rules for a database cluster, with the ID ca9f591d-f38h-5555-a0ef-1c02d1d1e35, with rules that allow a specific Droplet, a specific IP address, and any resources with the example-tag to access the database:
