Web Application Firewall (reverse proxy) - block or whitelist public ip addresses

Jason Brainerd1 8 months ago

I'm using the WAF as a reverse proxy. I'm wondering if there is a way to block or whitelist access by ip address?

i found this post from 9 years ago saying it'd be available in 9.3 but if it's available now i'm not seeing it:

Not sure what you mean.

You can limit access by

geoblocking (country or continent based)

IP reputation

explicitly naming IPs in firewall rules

virus scan (uploads only)

and firewall profiles, e.g. protocol violations

... and an access-list within WAF / sitepath-routing (i think)
