A Network Firewall that Prevents rather than Detects

An INSPECT rule hands the flow to the threat engine, and inspection decides what happens next: INTRUSION_PREVENTION drops the session, INTRUSION_DETECTION logs it and forwards it, and the rule reads INSPECT either way. Every inspect rule is prevention unless detection is accepted by name; policy and appliance are both created, and the address the route tables must point at is an output.

This is the operations reference: version drift, dependants and neighbours. For what the module provisions, its inputs and outputs, and how to buy it, see the catalogue entry.

Provider drift

This artifact declares no Terraform provider requirements, so there is nothing to drift. Provider freshness applies to Terraform and OpenTofu modules.

What depends on this

No reference architecture names this module, so changing it affects only configurations that reference it directly.

Nearest alternatives

Same cloud, same category. These are what you would weigh against it without changing provider.

The same job on other clouds

Managed Network Firewall on other providers. Useful when the cloud is still open, or when you are pricing a second one. How far a comparison like that can be trusted is covered in comparing clouds.

Installing it

module "oci_network_firewall" {
  source  = "www.iac-bazaar.com/iac-bazaar/oci-network-firewall/oci"
  version = "1.0.0"
}

A registry token is required for the download itself. Installing through the registry protocol has the two credential steps.
