Definitions of user-defined fields for CLOUD_ARMOR_NETWORK policies. A user-defined field consists of up to 4 bytes extracted from a fixed offset in the packet, relative to the IPv4, IPv6, TCP, or UDP header, with an optional mask to select certain bits. Rules may then specify matching values for these fields.

Example:

userDefinedFields: - name: "ipv4_fragment_offset" base: IPV4 offset: 6 size: 2 mask: "0x1fff"
securityPolicies[].userDefinedFields[].name

string

The name of this field. Must be unique within the policy.
securityPolicies[].userDefinedFields[].base

enum

The base relative to which 'offset' is measured. Possible values are:

  • IPV4: Points to the beginning of the IPv4 header.
  • IPV6: Points to the beginning of the IPv6 header.
  • TCP: Points to the beginning of the TCP header, skipping over any IPv4 options or IPv6 extension headers. Not present for non-first fragments.
  • UDP: Points to the beginning of the UDP header, skipping over any IPv4 options or IPv6 extension headers. Not present for non-first fragments.
required
securityPolicies[].userDefinedFields[].offset

This field may only be specified when versionedExpr is set to FIREWALL.
securityPolicies[].rules[].match.config.layer4Configs[]
(deprecated)

object

Pairs of IP protocols and ports that the rule should match.

This field may only be specified when versionedExpr is set to FIREWALL.
securityPolicies[].rules[].match.config.layer4Configs[]
(deprecated).ipProtocol
(deprecated)

string

The IP protocol to which this rule applies. The protocol type is required when creating a firewall rule. This value can either be one of the following well known protocol strings (tcp, udp, icmp, esp, ah, ipip, sctp), or the IP protocol number.
securityPolicies[].rules[].match.config.layer4Configs[]
(deprecated).ports[]
(deprecated)

string

An optional list of ports to which this rule applies. This field is only applicable for UDP or TCP protocol. Each entry must be either an integer or a range. If not specified, this rule applies to connections through any port.

Example inputs include: ["22"], ["80","443"], and ["12345-12349"].

This field may only be specified when versionedExpr is set to FIREWALL.
securityPolicies[].rules[].networkMatch

object

A match condition that incoming packets are evaluated against for CLOUD_ARMOR_NETWORK security policies. If it matches, the corresponding 'action' is enforced.

The match criteria for a rule consists of built-in match fields (like 'srcIpRanges') and potentially multiple user-defined match fields ('userDefinedFields').

Field values may be extracted directly from the packet or derived from it (e.g. 'srcRegionCodes'). Some fields may not be present in every packet (e.g. 'srcPorts'). A user-defined field is only present if the base header is found in the packet and the entire field is in bounds.

Each match field may specify which values can match it, listing one or more ranges, prefixes, or exact values that are considered a match for the field. A field value must be present in order to match a specified match field. If no match values are specified for a match field, then any field value is considered to match it, and it's not required to be present. For strings specifying '*' is also equivalent to match all.

For a packet to match a rule, all specified match fields must match the corresponding field values derived from the packet.

Example:

networkMatch: srcIpRanges: - "192.0.2.0/24" - "198.51.100.0/24" userDefinedFields: - name: "ipv4_fragment_offset" values: - "1-0x1fff"

The above match condition matches packets with a source IP in 192.0.2.0/24 or 198.51.100.0/24 and a user-defined field named "ipv4_fragment_offset" with a value between 1 and 0x1fff inclusive.
