Outbound static IP addresses
ForgeRock allocates outbound static IP addresses to each of your development, staging, and production tenant environments (and your sandbox tenant environment if you have one). This lets you identify network traffic originating from Identity Cloud and from individual environments within Identity Cloud.
Having static IP addresses for outbound requests lets you implement IP allowlisting in your enterprise network. Some examples of IP allowlisting are:
-
Adding IP addresses to your firewall settings to restrict access to your internal APIs
-
Adding IP addresses to your SMTP server settings so emails sent from Identity Cloud are not marked as spam
