Whitelist

Use Whitelist to add trusted allow rules for traffic that should remain allowed by your STOPBOT-protected services.

Whitelist rules are intended for trusted sources such as your own server, office network, monitoring service, partner network, or another known visitor source that should not be blocked by custom rules.

Add A Whitelist Rule

  1. Open Settings > Whitelist.

  2. Choose IP Address or Hostname.

  3. Select the rule type.

  4. Enter the trusted value.

  5. Click Add.

Best Practices

  • Only whitelist traffic you trust.

  • Prefer exact IP addresses or exact hostnames when possible.

  • Avoid broad wildcard or range rules unless the whole range is trusted.

  • Review whitelist entries regularly.

  • Remove old entries when a server, office network, or provider changes.
