class Aws::WAF::Types::WebACL

<note markdown=“1”> This is **AWS WAF Classic** documentation. For more information, see

AWS WAF Classic][1

in the developer guide.

**For the latest version of AWS WAF**, use the AWS WAFV2 API and see

the [AWS WAF Developer Guide]. With the latest version, AWS WAF has a single set of endpoints for regional and global use.

</note>

Contains the `Rules` that identify the requests that you want to allow, block, or count. In a `WebACL`, you also specify a default action (`ALLOW` or `BLOCK`), and the action for each `Rule` that you add to a `WebACL`, for example, block requests from specified IP addresses or block requests from specified referrers. You also associate the `WebACL` with a CloudFront distribution to identify the requests that you want AWS WAF to filter. If you add more than one `Rule` to a `WebACL`, a request needs to match only one of the specifications to be allowed, blocked, or counted. For more information, see UpdateWebACL.
