Ruleset Engine migration

Two existing features are now part of the Ruleset Engine rules language, and have been updated to use the Rulesets API (similar to WAF managed rules).

  • Rate-limiting rules: The new version of these rules allows you to apply rate-limiting to more specific kinds of traffic. For more information, see Migrating to new rate-limiting rules.
