WAF Permissions and Supported Actions

This topic describes fine-grained permissions management for your WAF instances. If your Huawei ID does not need individual IAM users, then you may skip over this section.

By default, new IAM users do not have any permissions assigned. You need to add a user to one or more groups, and assign permissions policies to these groups. Users inherit permissions from the groups to which they are added and can perform specified operations on cloud services based on the permissions.

You can grant users permissions by using roles and policies. Roles are provided by IAM to define service-based permissions depending on user's job responsibilities. Policies: A type of fine-grained authorization mechanism that defines permissions required to perform operations on specific cloud resources under certain conditions.

Supported Actions

WAF provides system-defined policies that can be directly used in IAM. You can also create custom policies and use them to supplement system-defined policies, implementing more refined access control.

Permission: A statement in a policy that allows or denies certain operations.
Action: Specific operations that are allowed or denied.
