问题描述
使用Azure API Management, 想对一些固定的IP地址进行访问次数的限制,如被限制的IP地址一分钟可以访问10次,而不被限制的IP地址则可以无限访问?
ChatGPT 解答
最近ChatGPT爆火,所以也把这个问题让ChatGPT来解答,然后人工验证它的回答正确与否?
根据对APIM Policy的文档参考, choose 和 rate-limit 策略组合理论上的确可以实现要求, 接下来就让我们实际验证:
- choose策略:Azure API 管理策略参考 | Azure Docs ,choose 策略根据布尔表达式的求值结果应用括住的策略语句,类似于编程语言中的 if-then-else 或开关构造。
- rate-limit策略:Azure API 管理策略参考 | Azure Docs , rate-limit 策略可以对调用速率进行限制,使每个指定时段的调用不超出指定的数目,避免单个订阅的 API 使用量暴增。 超过调用速率时,调用方会收到 429 Too Many Requests 响应状态代码。
验证步骤
1)在API的Inbound 策略中添加 choose策略
(策略具体内容,见文末)
2) 测试验证,连续对该API访问10次以上,得到429 Too Many Requests错误
3)以上证明,ChatGPT针对这个问题的解答是正确的!
工程师解答
在参考ChatGPT给出的 choose + rate limit 组合后,我们也发现另一个选项。使用 rate-limit-by-key 策略实现对特定IP的速率限制。
- rate-limit-by-key 策略:Azure API 管理策略参考 | Azure Docs , 可以对调用速率进行限制,使指定时段的调用不超出指定的数目,避免单个密钥的 API 使用量暴增。 密钥的值可以是任意字符串,通常使用策略表达式来提供密钥。 可以添加可选增量条件,指定在决定是否到达限制值时应该进行计数的请求。 超过此调用速率时,调用方会收到
429 Too Many Requests
响应状态代码。
在官方文档中给出的示例中,是针对所有的IP(context.Request.IpAddress)都进行了10次/60秒请求的限制,而本示例中则特指“某些固定IP”限制。那么如何来完成这个需求呢?
答案 就在“rate-limit-by-key 策略”的说明中,”可以添加可选增量条件,指定在决定是否到达限制值时应该进行计数的请求”, 所以,只要可选增量条件(increment-condition) 的值根据输入的IP地址动态赋值True/False, 就能完美匹配以上要求。
理论推断,只需要实现如下逻辑,即可以实现终极需求“想对一些固定的IP地址进行访问次数的限制,如被限制的IP地址一分钟可以访问10次,而不被限制的IP地址则可以无限访问?”
只需两步:
1)通过设置一个变量(set-variable) 值,用C#代码来计算变量值,在赋值语句中,预先定义一个IP限制列表,通过 contains 检查当前请求IP是否在列表中,返回True or False 。True表示当前请求的IP需要速率限制, 否则,不需要。
2) 然后,在rate-limit-by-key 的 increment-condition条件中使用上一步参数值,进行判断是否计入限制
验证步骤
1)在API的 Inbound 策略中添加 rate-limit-by-key策略
(策略具体内容,见文末)
2)验证在30秒,访问5次以上后,同样得到429 Too Many Requests错误
3) 当在请求Headers中添加Ocp-Apim-Trace: true 和 Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key: {订阅Key}后,可以查看请求在APIM中执行的日志跟踪。可以查看rate-limit-by-key 策略的执行情况.
总结
想实现固定IP地址访问次数的限制,至少有如下两种解决方案。
方案一:Choose + rate-limit 策略组合
