<note> <p>This is <b>AWS WAF Classic</b> documentation. For more information, see <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/classic-waf-chapter.html">AWS WAF Classic</a> in the developer guide.</p> <p> <b>For the latest version of AWS WAF</b>, use the AWS WAFV2 API and see the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/waf-chapter.html">AWS WAF Developer Guide</a>. With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use. </p> </note> <p>Creates an <a>IPSet</a>, which you use to specify which web requests that you want to allow or block based on the IP addresses that the requests originate from. For example, if you're receiving a lot of requests from one or more individual IP addresses or one or more ranges of IP addresses and you want to block the requests, you can create an <code>IPSet</code> that contains those IP addresses and then configure AWS WAF to block the requests. </p> <p>To create and configure an <code>IPSet</code>, perform the following steps:</p> <ol> <li> <p>Use <a>GetChangeToken</a> to get the change token that you provide in the <code>ChangeToken</code> parameter of a <code>CreateIPSet</code> request.</p> </li> <li> <p>Submit a <code>CreateIPSet</code> request.</p> </li> <li> <p>Use <code>GetChangeToken</code> to get the change token that you provide in the <code>ChangeToken</code> parameter of an <a>UpdateIPSet</a> request.</p> </li> <li> <p>Submit an <code>UpdateIPSet</code> request to specify the IP addresses that you want AWS WAF to watch for.</p> </li> </ol> <p>For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/waf/latest/developerguide/">AWS WAF Developer Guide</a>.</p>
