Auto IP Blocking History

Auto IP Blocking History

This page shows the history of the automatic IP bans imposed on repeat offenders. You will only see any records here if you have turned on the "IP blocking of repeat offenders" option in the Configure WAF page and there have been repeat offenders in the past whose automatic ban has now been lifted. For each old auto-banned IP record you can see the IP address which was banned, the latest security exception this IP triggered before it got banned and until when (GMT timezone!) this auto-ban was in effect.

The contents of this page are used by Admin Tools together with the "IP blacklisting of persistent offenders" option in the Configure WAF page to determine which IPs of repeat offenders should be automatically added in the permanent IP blacklist.

[Note]Note

If you want to unblock someone who got their IP inadvertently blocked you will have to remove all records belonging to their IP address in FOUR (4) places: Site IP blacklist, Security Exceptions Log, Auto IP Blocking Administration and Auto IP Blocking History.
