How do I change the external IP used by the Oracle Autonomous database in the free tier? The existing IP is blacklisted.

tor77954311 hours ago

I use an Oracle Autonomous database in the always free tier and I have some API calls from it to various sites. One of these sites use Akamai for their web filtering / DDoS protection and Akamai has now flagged the oracle IP I am coming from as malicious (see the below response). Going to https://www.akamai.com/us/en/clientrep-lookup/ does not allow me to specify the Oracle IP and I can't open a browser from the Oracle autonomous database so I cant start the investigation they are suggesting. I assume the IP is shared by lots of Oracle customers and I don't think I did anything to flag it. I tried to open a case with Oracle but they closed it since they do not support the free tier.

The IP in question is 150.136.133.92 and as per this tool it is not blacklisted:

https://www.ip-tracker.org/blacklist-check.php?ip=150.136.133.92

So is there a way to rotate the IP or something so it uses a different IP that is not flagged?

Here is the error from Akamai:

{ "code": 404, "message": "Akamai observed malicious activity originating from this IP address. You can use the Client Reputation lookup application at https://www.akamai.com/us/en/clientrep-lookup/ to check whether your connecting IP address received a bad reputation score and submit an investigation request in case you believe it was mistakenly flagged as malicious." }
