aws waf create-rule-group
This is AWS WAF Classic documentation. For more information, see AWS WAF Classic 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. Creates a RuleGroup. A rule group is a collection of predefined rules that you add to a web ACL. You use UpdateRuleGroup to add rules to the rule group. Rule groups are subject to the following limits: Three rule groups per account. You can request an increase to this limit by contacting customer support. One rule group per web ACL. Ten rules per rule group. For more information about how to use the AWS WAF API to allow or block HTTP requests, see the AWS WAF Developer Guide
