How can I add a list of IP ranges to be whitelisted in Azure Cosmos DB?

Question

From Azure Cosmos DB networking tab, I'm able to add individual IP address for whitelisting But I have a few IP ranges. Please let me know how to add them.

Answer 1

Hi Sheethal,

You can add the public IP ranges in Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) format. You can use a free online IP range to CIDR calculator to help (search engine will give many to choose from).

For example, say you wanted to allow IP range 104.87.85.176 - 104.87.85.179, you would enter 104.87.85.176/30 on the Networking blade of your Cosmos DB.

Thanks.

Check the way to add using the Azure CLI here

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cosmos-db/how-to-configure-firewall#configure-ip-firewall-cli

# Create an Azure Cosmos DB account with default values and IP Firewall enabled

resourceGroupName='MyResourceGroup'

accountName='mycosmosaccount'

ipRangeFilter='192.168.221.17,183.240.196.255,40.76.54.131'

# Make sure there are no spaces in the comma-delimited list of IP addresses or CIDR ranges.

az cosmosdb create -n $accountName -g $resourceGroupName --locations regionName='West US 2' failoverPriority=0 isZoneRedundant=False --locations regionName='East US 2' failoverPriority=1 isZoneRedundant=False --ip-range-filter $ipRangeFilter
