About Allow and Deny Lists
When an endpoint attempts to re gister with
the VCS it presents a list of aliases. You can
control which endpoints are all owed to register
by setting the Restriction Po licy to AllowList
or DenyList and then includin g any one of the
endpoint’s aliases on the Allow List or th e
Deny list as appropriate. Each list c an contain
up to 2,500 entries. When an endpo int
attempts to register, each of its alias es is
compared with the patter ns in the relevant list
to see if it matches. Only one of the ali ases
needs to appear in the Allow List or t he Deny
List for the registration to be all owed or
denied.
For example, If the Registratio n Restriction
policy is set to DenyList and an endp oint
attempts to register using thre e aliases, one
of which matches a pattern on th e Deny list,
that endpoint’s registration wil l be denied.
Likewise, if the Registration Rest riction policy
is set to AllowList, only one of the endp oint’s
aliases needs to match a pattern o n the Allow
list for it to be allowed to register using a ll its
aliases.
Patterns and Pattern Types
Entries on the Allow List and Deny L ist are a
combination of Pattern and Type. T he Pattern
specifies the string to be ma tched; the Type
determines whether that str ing;
must match the Pattern exact ly (Exact)
must appear at the start of th e alias
(Prefix)
must appear at the end of the alias (Suf fix)
is in the form of a Regular Expressi on
(Regex).
