    Now that Quic Cloud is a full pay as you go CDN; when will the ability be available to drop traffic instead of just rerouting it?

    Correct me if I am wrong, but as it sits now any unwanted/hostile traffic from a de-selected region just gets routed to any enabled regions where it will continue to suck resources with no ability to managed payed bandwidth.

    Ideally, as a minimum there should be the ability to: drop or re-route to another region or re-route to origin server.

    Hi,

    I will pass it as feature request for this

    as a temporarily workaround , if you have admin/root access to your server , you can set up a GeoIP module for LiteSpeed and then use rewrite rule to block or allow based visitor’s country/continent , it will still goes through CDN node, but origin will only give 403 page on blocked user, which should be minimal on traffic-wise

    Best regards,

    Thanks.

    I am already blocking geoIPs with CSF but it is far from perfect; largely I am specific to the NA region and am only allowing the applicable QC IP addresses. But on another VPS I am targeting the UK, but when I selected the EU region and allowed only the specific UK QC IP addys I had almost a gig sucked in a short period from Germany.

    Obviously bots/scrapers/hostiles are a large part of internet traffic these days some sort of defense is needed.

    Hi,

    duly noted.

    I have asked our devs to make a country/continent block feature , which I also feel it could be useful thing
