    Hi!

    Sorry to bother you but I just got a CDN plan and they gave me a list of IPs I need to white list but I’m kinda confused when trying to do it on Wordfence. Several IPs end in
    XXX.XXX.XX.X/20 XXX.XXX.XX.X/22 XXX.XXX.XX.X/27 XXX.XXX.XX.X/26 XXX.XXX.XX.X/24 XXX.XXX.XX.X/28 XXX.XXX.XX.X/30 XXX.XXX.XX.X/32 XXX.XXX.XX.X/19

    I know I’m not suppose to put /XX so how do I input those endings in the white list?
    Thanks

  • Thanks for bringing this up. I seem to recall having encountered this as well, it’s the issue of whether Wordfence will take IP ranges instead of just single IPs, if/where to input. Will be interesting to get an answer.

    Meanwhile, while looking at ver 7 Wordfence, under Firewall/Blocking/IP-Address it does say under “Blocking” that it takes “Range.” So presumably you could put in one of those ranges and be good.

    I usually do this in the .htaccess file, so I don’t have much experience with the IP blocking in Wordfence.

    Hi @codywulfy,

    In order to whitelist whole networks you need to convert CIDR formats to ranges; to do so please refer to this article from our documentation.
