Configure IP firewall for Azure Event Grid topics or domains

By default, topic and domain are accessible from internet as long as the request comes with valid authentication and authorization. With IP firewall, you can restrict it further to only a set of IPv4 addresses or IPv4 address ranges in CIDR (Classless Inter-Domain Routing) notation. Publishers originating from any other IP address will be rejected and will receive a 403 (Forbidden) response. For more information about network security features supported by Event Grid, see Network security for Event Grid.

This article describes how to configure IP firewall settings for Azure Event Grid topics or domains.

Use Azure portal

This section shows you how to use the Azure portal to enable public or private access while creating a topic or for an existing topic. The steps shown in this section are for topics. You can use similar steps to enable public or private access for domains.

When creating a topic

This section shows you how to enable public or private network access for an Event Grid topic or a domain. For step-by-step instructions to create a new topic, see Create a custom topic.

  1. On the Basics page of the Create topic wizard, select Next: Networking at the bottom of the page after filling the required fields.

    Screenshot showing the selection of Networking link at the bottom of the page.

  2. If you want to allow clients to connect to the topic endpoint via a public IP address, keep the Public access option selected.

    You can restrict access to the topic from specific IP addresses by specifying values for the Address range field. Specify a single IPv4 address or a range of IP addresses in Classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) notation.

  3. To allow access to the Event Grid topic via a private endpoint, select the Private access option.

  4. Follow instructions in the Add a private endpoint using Azure portal section to create a private endpoint.

For an existing topic

  1. In the Azure portal, Navigate to your Event Grid topic or domain, and switch to the Networking tab.

  2. Select Public networks to allow all networks, including the internet, to access the resource.

    You can restrict access to the topic from specific IP addresses by specifying values for the Address range field. Specify a single IPv4 address or a range of IP addresses in Classless inter-domain routing (CIDR) notation.

  3. Select Private endpoints only to allow only private endpoint connections to access this resource. Use the Private endpoint connections tab on this page to manage connections.

    For step-by-step instructions to create a private endpoint connection, see Add a private endpoint using Azure portal.

    Screenshot that shows the Public network access page with Private endpoints only option selected.

  4. Select Save on the toolbar.

Use Azure CLI

This section shows you how to use Azure CLI commands to create topics with inbound IP rules. The steps shown in this section are for topics. You can use similar steps to create inbound IP rules for domains.

Enable or disable public network access

By default, the public network access is enabled for topics and domains. You can also enable it explicitly or disable it. You can restrict traffic by configuring inbound IP firewall rules.

Enable public network access while creating a topic

az eventgrid topic create \
    --resource-group $resourceGroupName \
    --name $topicName \
    --location $location \
    --public-network-access enabled

Disable public network access while creating a topic

az eventgrid topic create \
    --resource-group $resourceGroupName \
    --name $topicName \
    --location $location \
    --public-network-access disabled

Note

When public network access is disabled for a topic or domain, traffic over public internet isn't allowed. Only private endpoint connections will be allowed to access these resources.

Enable public network access for an existing topic

az eventgrid topic update \
    --resource-group $resourceGroupName \
    --name $topicName \
    --public-network-access enabled 

Disable public network access for an existing topic

az eventgrid topic update \
    --resource-group $resourceGroupName \
    --name $topicName \
    --public-network-access disabled

Create a topic with single inbound ip rule

The following sample CLI command creates an Event Grid topic with inbound IP rules.

az eventgrid topic create \
    --resource-group $resourceGroupName \
    --name $topicName \
    --location $location \
    --public-network-access enabled \
    --inbound-ip-rules <IP ADDR or CIDR MASK> allow 

Create a topic with multiple inbound ip rules

The following sample CLI command creates an Event Grid topic two inbound IP rules in one step:

az eventgrid topic create \
    --resource-group $resourceGroupName \
    --name $topicName \
    --location $location \
    --public-network-access enabled \
    --inbound-ip-rules <IP ADDR 1 or CIDR MASK 1> allow \
    --inbound-ip-rules <IP ADDR 2 or CIDR MASK 2> allow

Update an existing topic to add inbound IP rules

This example creates an Event Grid topic first and then adds inbound IP rules for the topic in a separate command. It also updates the inbound IP rules that were set in the second command.


# create the event grid topic first
az eventgrid topic create \
    --resource-group $resourceGroupName \
    --name $topicName \
    --location $location

# add inbound IP rules to an existing topic
az eventgrid topic update \
    --resource-group $resourceGroupName \
    --name $topicName \
    --public-network-access enabled \
    --inbound-ip-rules <IP ADDR or CIDR MASK> allow

# later, update topic with additional ip rules
az eventgrid topic update \
    --resource-group $resourceGroupName \
    --name $topicName \
    --public-network-access enabled \
    --inbound-ip-rules <IP ADDR 1 or CIDR MASK 1> allow \
    --inbound-ip-rules <IP ADDR 2 or CIDR MASK 2> allow

Remove an inbound IP rule

The following command removes the second rule you created in the previous step by specifying only the first rule while updating the setting.

az eventgrid topic update \
    --resource-group $resourceGroupName \
    --name $topicName \
    --public-network-access enabled \
    --inbound-ip-rules <IP ADDR 1 or CIDR MASK 1> allow

Use PowerShell

This section shows you how to use Azure PowerShell commands to create Azure Event Grid topics with inbound IP firewall rules. The steps shown in this section are for topics. You can use similar steps to create inbound IP rules for domains.

By default, the public network access is enabled for topics and domains. You can also enable it explicitly or disable it. You can restrict traffic by configuring inbound IP firewall rules.

Enable public network access while creating a topic

New-AzEventGridTopic -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroupName -Name Topic1 -Location eastus -PublicNetworkAccess enabled

Disable public network access while creating a topic

New-AzEventGridTopic -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroupName -Name Topic1 -Location eastus -PublicNetworkAccess disabled

Note

When public network access is disabled for a topic or domain, traffic over public internet isn't allowed. Only private endpoint connections will be allowed to access these resources.

Create a topic with public network access and inbound ip rules

The following sample CLI command creates an Event Grid topic with public network access and inbound IP rules.

New-AzEventGridTopic -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroupName -Name Topic1 -Location eastus -PublicNetworkAccess enabled -InboundIpRule @{ "10.0.0.0/8" = "Allow"; "10.2.0.0/8" = "Allow" }

Update an existing a topic with public network access and inbound ip rules

The following sample CLI command updates an existing Event Grid topic with inbound IP rules.

Set-AzEventGridTopic -ResourceGroupName MyResourceGroupName -Name Topic1 -PublicNetworkAccess enabled -InboundIpRule @{ "10.0.0.0/8" = "Allow"; "10.2.0.0/8" = "Allow" } -Tag @{}

Disable public network access for an existing topic

Set-AzEventGridTopic -ResourceGroup MyResourceGroupName -Name Topic1 -PublicNetworkAccess disabled -Tag @{} -InboundIpRule @{}
