Google Cloud Platform Creating Firewall Rule What Allows Request Coming From One And Only Specific Country

Question

i am kind of new on GCP. I am trying to figure out how can i create a firewall rule that allows requests coming from one specific country like Belgium, Italy etc. I may miss the tips in docs. Any ideas?

Answer 1

Have a look at the documentation Using firewall rules section Creating firewall rules . Unfortunately, GCP Firewall doesn't provide geo filtration at the moment.

Please check if Cloud Armor suits your use case. If so, you'll be able to use geography-based access controls to allow or deny traffic based on source geo using Google's geoIP mapping.

If your use case requires geo filtration provided by GCP Firewall you can file a feature quest at Google Public Issue Tracker .
