Restricting Connections
By default, Exoscale DBaaS are not accessible from the whole internet. Data does not transmit in clear over the network as it is SSL encrypted by default and authenticated.
To allow incoming connections to your database service, you can add a filter allowing:
- just one IP address,
- a network range,
- or a combination of IP address and network range
To do this, update your service or create it with the IP filter, which is a comma separated list of CIDRs:
$ exo dbaas update -z de-fra-1 test-pg --pg-ip-filter=a.b.c.d/32,w,x,y,z/24
