Configuring Firewall Settings
104 WatchGuard Firebox X Edge
Blocking External Sites
The Blocked Sites feature helps prevent traffic from hostile sites
from getting through the Firebox. When you identify a hacker, you
can stop all connections that hacker tries to make. When hackers try
to connect to your network, the Firebox® X Edge records data about
the hacker. You can examine the data to identify attacks.
A blocked site is an external IP address that is blocked from con-
necting to computers behind the Edge regardless of configured ser-
vices.
To add a location to the Blocked Sites list:
1 From the navigation bar, click Firewall > Blocked Sites.
The Blocked Sites page appears.
2 From the drop-down list, click Host IP Address, Network IP
Address, or Host Range.
3 In the text box, type a host IP address, a network IP address, or
a range of host IP addresses.
4 Click Add.
The IP address information appears in the Blocked Sites list.
5 Click Submit.
