This update introduces a split in the IP address list, now presented as two distinct categories: user IP addresses and Portal Middleware IPs.\u00a0 Managing IP access control policies is essential for maintaining a secure environment. \u00a0Earlier this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/azure\/cosmos-db\/how-to-configure-firewall#new-azure-portal-ip-addresses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">new Portal IP addresses were introduced<\/a> as part of the Azure Cosmos DB portal service upgrade. Now, you can easily update these addresses with a single click in the portal.<\/p>\n<h2>Understanding the Changes<\/h2>\n<p>This update aims to give users a more streamlined and user-friendly way to manage IP addresses. By dividing the IP addresses into two lists, you can now clearly tell apart your own from those used by our Portal Middleware. Removing Portal Legacy Middleware IPs and adding new ones is now just a click away.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Use the New Features<\/h2>\n<p>Leveraging these new features is straightforward:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Add User IP Addresses and Portal Middleware Ips:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/add.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8932\" src=\"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/add.png\" alt=\"Image add\" width=\"1248\" height=\"997\" srcset=\"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/add.png 1248w, https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/add-300x240.png 300w, https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/add-1024x818.png 1024w, https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/add-768x614.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1248px) 100vw, 1248px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Within the Azure Portal, open your Azure Cosmos DB account.<\/li>\n<li>Navigate to the Networking in your Azure Cosmos DB account.<\/li>\n<li>Select Public network access: Selected networks<\/li>\n<li>Find the two separate lists for IP addresses: one for user IPs and one for Portal Middleware IPs.<\/li>\n<li>To add or remove Portal Middleware IPs, simply click the designated link.\u00a0 They must be first added for the option to remove them to appear.\n<ul>\n<li>\u2013 Add Azure Portal Middleware IPs<\/li>\n<li>\u2013 Remove Azure Portal Middleware IPs<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Click Save.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/remove.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-8933\" src=\"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/remove.png\" alt=\"Image remove\" width=\"1248\" height=\"1066\" srcset=\"https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/remove.png 1248w, https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/remove-300x256.png 300w, https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/remove-1024x875.png 1024w, https:\/\/devblogs.microsoft.com\/cosmosdb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/52\/2024\/10\/remove-768x656.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1248px) 100vw, 1248px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Remove Azure Cosmos DB Portal Legacy Middleware IPs:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Within the Azure Portal, open your Azure Cosmos DB account.<\/li>\n<li>Navigate to the Networking in your Azure Cosmos DB account.<\/li>\n<li>Select Public network access: Selected networks<\/li>\n<li>To remove Portal Legacy Middleware IPs, simply click the designated link: Remove Portal Legacy Middleware IPs.
