Is there an ip-block for whitelisting?

1

Hello

Is there an ip-block for whitelisting to access our cloud resources within Grafana? For example, if we have an RDS instance and want to use that as a data-source within Grafana. We use known IPs for access and would need the IP or ip-block to whitelist to allow this connection to happen. Thanks in advance.

Received a response from Amazon... they are working on a VPC connections that can be used for this sort of a behavior with Q3 as target. For the timebeing, we can add the following IPs into a security group to allow whatever the resource:

3.234.162.252
35.170.12.166
54.88.16.229

Tested this on my preview dashboard and all is well now.

  • Yeah, VPC Endpoint make sense as a solution this problem.

It is hard for me to believe no one faced this in the three months this has been in preview. Looking at a couple of threads in the forum here, I see they are similar to mine, but I see no responses.

I could download https://ip-ranges.amazonaws.com/ip-ranges.json per the document at: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-ip-ranges.html

Running the following jq command shows me 4087 entries to work with.
$ jq '.prefixes[]|{ip_prefix,region:"us-east-1"}|.ip_prefix' ip-ranges.json

I wonder if creating a security group with these 4087 entries is good enough to get started with Grafana. Any thoughts?

Is there an update on this feature as of yet? We need it as we don't want to expose our VPC RDS instances on public interfaces.
