IP Range Blocking
-
If you have a large number of Blacklisted IP addresses that are attacking your website and they are within a particular range, we provide you with an option to block the whole range of IP addresses using the IP range blocking feature.
-
If an IP address falls within the range of the blocked IP addresses and tries to access your website, that request would automatically be shown the 403 Forbidden page and will be restricted from accessing your website.
