How to Block an IP Address Print

  • 0

If a particular visitor or bot is causing problems, you can block their IP address from your website.

Blocking an IP Address

  1. Log in to cPanel (see How to Log In to cPanel)
  2. In the Security section, click IP Blocker
  3. Enter the IP address or range, for example:
    • A single address: 192.0.2.10
    • A range: 192.0.2.1-192.0.2.40
    • A whole block: 192.0.2.0/24
  4. Click Add

Blocked visitors see an "Access forbidden" error.

Unblocking an IP Address

Scroll down to Currently-Blocked IP Addresses and click Delete next to the address.

IP Blocker only stops access to your website. If you're being hit by a lot of bad traffic or a login attack, contact our support team as Imunify360 can block it at the server.
