Blacklisting or Whitelisting IPs and Domains

There are two methods for adding IPs or domains to a blacklist or whitelist:

• Via the control panel:

  • Go to any of your zone’s settings, and click the “access parameters” tab.

  • Scroll down to the “IPs” and “target host” sections, as they are both responsible for white/blacklisting IPs and domains, respectively:

  Add all the relevant IPs and domains you’ll allow access to with your proxy zone.

• Via API endpoints:

  • Add IP to Zone whitelist

  • Remove IP from Zone whitelist

  • Add IP to Zone blacklist

  • Remove IP from Zone blacklist

  • Remove domain from Zone whitelist/blacklist

  • Add domain to Zone whitelist/blacklist

• Important tips re whitelist:

  • IPs that should be whitelisted are your machine’s IPs that you’ll be sending requests with, not the proxy IPs in your zones.

  • We strongly recommend whitelisting your IPs wherever possible, since when the whitelist is empty, you run the risk of getting your non-whitelisted IPs temporarily blocked in the case where our automatic security blocking system detects any irregular activity. See more info within this video.

  • There is no limit on how many IPs/domains you can add to the whitelist and we also support ranges of IPs.
