Blocking External Sites
A blocked site is an external IP address that is always blocked from
connecting to computers behind the Edge. When hackers try to con-
nect to your network, the Firebox® X Edge records data about the
hacker. You can examine the data to identify attacks and stop fur-
ther attacks from that address range. Use the IP address of the
attacker or a range of hostile IP addresses to create a Blocked Site.
