Allow/Deny IPs via web.config (SolidCP)

In order to allow or deny certain IPs via the web.config, please follow the steps below:

1. Login to the SolidCP.

2. Choose File Manager from under your Hosting Space.

3. Navigate to your domain.com/wwwroot/ directory and edit the web.config.

4. Add the following code into your web.config just under the  tag.

For blocking specific IP addresses:

PS: 10.0.0.1 being the IP you wish to block.

Deny all, but allow specific IPs or networks:

PS: 127.0.0.1 is allowed so the web-server/localhost can connect to your website and process your files.

If you wish to allow / deny a whole network rather than just one IP, you can add the following between the IP address subnetMask="255.255.255.0" (you will need to chang the subnetMask depending on the range of the network), so the completed line will look like this:

5. After you are done modifying the web.config, click Save.
