Editing an egress firewall for a project¶

As a cluster administrator, you can modify network traffic rules for an existing egress firewall.

Editing an EgressFirewall custom resource (CR)¶

As a cluster administrator, you can update the egress firewall for a project.

Prerequisites

• A cluster using the OVN-Kubernetes network plugin.
• Install the OpenShift CLI (oc).
• You must log in to the cluster as a cluster administrator.

Procedure

1. Find the name of the EgressFirewall CR for the project. Replace <project> with the name of the project.
   terminal

   $ oc get -n <project> egressfirewall

2. Optional: If you did not save a copy of the EgressFirewall object when you created the egress network firewall, enter the following command to create a copy.
   terminal

   $ oc get -n <project> egressfirewall <name> -o yaml > <filename>.yaml

   Replace <project> with the name of the project. Replace <name> with the name of the object. Replace <filename> with the name of the file to save the YAML to.

3. After making changes to the policy rules, enter the following command to replace the EgressFirewall CR. Replace <filename> with the name of the file containing the updated EgressFirewall CR.
   terminal

   $ oc replace -f <filename>.yaml
