Cloud Firewall and IP list
Someone miss ip lists to use in cloud firewall?

Not really sure exactly what you mean, but…
You can use IP ranges/subnet masks in cloud firewalls - e.g. 80.42.24.62/27.
You can also add multiple IPs/ranges to a single rule - just click the “Add an IP” link.
Having the ability to create lists of IPs/ranges, and then allocating those to rules would be useful, so if an IP changes, you only have to update the IP list to update all rules… but this isn’t a feature.
Hi
I know, I know….
Think, you have … say 10 firewalls in place and have a …say 20 ip to put in each of the firewall rules and say 1 firewall has 2 rules.
That is a lot of keyboard work, I think, to do and to maintain.
List: you have a list with the 20 ip, and in each rule you add the list. When you need to change 1 ip, no need to go firewall by firewall, rule by rule, change it in the list and that´s all.
Well, maybe not an infinite number of list, but 1? 2? whitelist and blacklist?
This is all similar to ipset rules in iptables:
