Follow these simple steps to block one or more IPv4 addresses from accessing your store.


Step 1: Open the IPv4 Blocking Section

  • Go to Block Settings.
  • Locate the Block IPv4 section.
  • Click Manage Addresses.


This will open the Blocked IPv4 IPs page.




Step 2: Add a New IPv4 Address


On the Blocked IPv4 IPs page, you can add a new IP address in either of these ways:

  • Click Add New IPv4 in the top-right corner.
  • Or click the Add New IPs button in the center of the page.




Step 3: Enter the IP Address


On the Block New IPv4 IP page:

  • Your current public IPv4 address is displayed at the top for reference.
  • Example: Your current IP is 38.68.134.126
  • To block a single IP address, enter the same IP in both the Start IP and End IP fields.
  • To block a range of IP addresses, enter the first IP in Start IP and the last IP in End IP.


Single IP Example:

  • Start IP : 38.68.135.128
  • End IP   : 38.68.135.128


IP Range Example:

  • Start IP : 38.68.135.1
  • End IP   : 38.68.135.255



Step 4: Save the Rule


  • After entering the IP address or IP range, click Save to add it to your blocked list.
  • The specified IP address(es) will now be prevented from accessing your store.



Import IPv4 Addresses


To add multiple IP addresses at once:

  • Click Import.
  • Upload your supported file containing IPv4 addresses.
  • Complete the import process.


This is useful when blocking a large list of IP addresses.



Export IPv4 Addresses


To download your existing blocked IPv4 list:

  • Click Export.
  • A file containing all blocked IPv4 addresses will be downloaded.


This can be used for backup or migration purposes.



Tips:

  • Use the same IP in both fields to block a single address.
  • Use Start IP and End IP to block an entire IP range.
  • Verify the IP address before saving to avoid blocking legitimate visitors.
  • Use the Import feature when adding a large number of IP addresses.
  • Regularly Export your blocked IP list to keep a backup of your settings.
