Say you want to prevent a particular person or a group of persons, this functionality is perfect for you. This feature will allow you to block a range of IP addresses to prevent them from accessing your site. You can also enter a fully qualified domain name, and the IP Deny Manager will attempt to resolve it (map it) to an IP address for you.

  • As said above, say you add this IP Address: 47.185.197.160.

Note: 10. as an implied IP address implies 10.*.*.*, where each * represents a positive whole number. If you enter 10., the system blocks access to any IP address that begin with 10.

If you enter IP addresses directly into the .htaccess file, enter them in CIDR format only.
