What Are the Precautions for Configuring a Protection Rule to Block IP Addresses?

Pay attention to the following points when configuring a protection rule to block IP addresses:

  1. You are advised to preferentially configure accurate IP addresses (for example, 192.168.10.5) to reduce network segment configurations and avoid incorrect interception.
  2. Exercise caution when configuring protection rules to block reverse proxy IP addresses, and WAF. You are advised to configure protection rules or whitelist to permit reverse proxy IP addresses.
  3. Forward proxy IP addresses (such as company egress IP addresses) have a large impact scope. Exercise caution when configuring protection rules to block forward proxy IP addresses.
  4. When configuring region protection, you need to consider the situation that the public IP address may be changed.
