Move a Firewall to Another Compartment

You can move a firewall from one compartment to another.

After you move a firewall to a new compartment, inherent policies apply immediately and affect access to the firewall through the Console, SDK or CLI.  For more information, see Managing Compartments.

    1. On the navigation menu, select Identity & Security. Go to Firewalls, select Network Firewalls.
    2. Find the firewall in the list, select the Actions menu (three dots), and then select Move resource.
    3. Select a destination compartment from the list.
    4. Select Move resource.
  • Use the network-firewall network-firewall change-compartment command and required parameters to move the network firewall to a different compartment. 
    oci network-firewall network-firewall change-compartment 
--compartment-id compartment_id--network-firewall-id network_firewall_id [OPTIONS]

    For a complete list of flags and variable options for CLI commands, see the Command Line Reference.

  • Run the ChangeNetworkFirewallCompartment operation to change the compartment of a network firewall.
