NetworkAcl

Learn how to create, update, and manage AWS EC2 NetworkAcls using Alchemy Cloud Control.

The NetworkAcl resource allows you to manage AWS EC2 Network Acls for controlling inbound and outbound traffic to and from your subnets.

Minimal Example

Create a basic NetworkAcl in a specified VPC with a tag.

import AWS from "alchemy/aws/control";

const basicNetworkAcl = await AWS.EC2.NetworkAcl("basicNetworkAcl", {
  VpcId: "vpc-123abc45",
  Tags: [{ Key: "Name", Value: "BasicNetworkAcl" }]
});

Advanced Configuration

Configure a NetworkAcl with additional tags and adopt existing resources.

const advancedNetworkAcl = await AWS.EC2.NetworkAcl("advancedNetworkAcl", {
  VpcId: "vpc-678def90",
  Tags: [
    { Key: "Environment", Value: "Production" },
    { Key: "Department", Value: "IT" }
  ],
  adopt: true
});

Example with Security Rules

Create a NetworkAcl that includes specific traffic rules for inbound and outbound access.

const secureNetworkAcl = await AWS.EC2.NetworkAcl("secureNetworkAcl", {
  VpcId: "vpc-abc123de",
  Tags: [{ Key: "Name", Value: "SecureNetworkAcl" }],
  Rules: [
    {
      RuleAction: "allow",
      RuleNumber: 100,
      Protocol: "tcp",
      PortRange: { From: 22, To: 22 },
      CidrBlock: "0.0.0.0/0",
      Egress: false
    },
    {
      RuleAction: "allow",
      RuleNumber: 101,
      Protocol: "tcp",
      PortRange: { From: 80, To: 80 },
      CidrBlock: "0.0.0.0/0",
      Egress: true
    },
    {
      RuleAction: "deny",
      RuleNumber: 102,
      Protocol: "-1",
      CidrBlock: "0.0.0.0/0",
      Egress: false
    }
  ]
});

Adoption of Existing NetworkAcl

Adopt an existing NetworkAcl with the option to manage it through Alchemy.

const adoptExistingNetworkAcl = await AWS.EC2.NetworkAcl("adoptNetworkAcl", {
  VpcId: "vpc-existing-01",
  adopt: true
});
