An RPZ AIpAddress is an Substitute (IPv4 Address) Rule that maps an IP address represented by a host name to a substitute IPv4 address. To define a specific address-to-address mapping, add an Substitute (IPv4 Address) Rule to a previously defined Response Policy Zone.
This record represents the substitution rule for IP trigger policy. It matches IP addresses that would otherwise appear in A record in the “answer” section of DNS response.
You should use this object to create IP address substitution rules instead usage CNAMEIpAddress object.
References to record:rpz:a:ipaddress are object references. The name part of an AIpAddress record object reference has the following components:
- Name of the record
- Name of the view
Example: record:rpz:a:ipaddress/ZG5zLmhvc3RjkuMC4xLg:9.0.0.0/16.rpz.com/default
The object does not support the following operations:
The object cannot be managed on Cloud Platform members.
These fields are actual members of the object; thus, they can be requested by using _return_fields, if the fields are readable.
The basic version of the object contains the field(s): ipv4addr, name, view.
The following fields are required to create this object:
