Filter blocked traffic that is not already a blocked IP or range

    How can the traffic displayed in the Live Traffic view be filtered to *only* show events that Wordfence has blocked which are not already in my block list?

    In other words, I only wish to see those events which are new addresses that are trying to exploit my site.

    I have successfully added some ranges to be blocked, but periodically there is a new range. It is *very* tedious to scroll through the full list to find these new IPs.

    It would great to have a *Block Network* button added next to the Block IP button. The Block Network button should complete the information fields automatically from the available data, and not require this to be filled in manually as it is tedious.

    Thanks

    Hello @phonyroyal and thanks for reaching out to us!

    You can filter this information by going to All Options > Tool Options > Live Traffic Options. You can add all IPs to List of comma separated IP addresses to ignore, and this will exclude them from the Live Traffic.

    As for your feature request for Block Network, I will pass that request along to our dev team! If they get enough requests for it, they will look at implementing it in a future release.

    Thanks again for your support and suggestions!

    Thanks @wfadam but adding IPs manually is not a solution to my question: “How can the traffic displayed in the Live Traffic view be filtered to *only* show events that Wordfence has blocked which are not already in my block list?”

    I’ll try explain better:
    – Live Traffic is set to (1) display all security events and (2) expand all results.
    – If an event has an “Unblock Range” button then I don’t want that event displayed.
    – How do I filter these events out?

    This will then display all security events from new IPs only, which have a button that says “Block IP”.

    Thanks
