IP Filters


To activate the IP Filter feature, go to the Settings - IP Filter section.

A filter can be selected by left-clicking it. Multiple items can be selected by holding down the CTRL key when clicking, which will allow a cumulative selection.

IPs are checked against the lists in the order they are displayed. You can change the order by simply dragging the list(s) with the left mouse button.

The 'Action' column shows exactly how IPs will be processed in an individual list:

Drop Matches If an IP is found in the list, it will be blocked. IPs not found in the list will continue to the next list or not be blocked if there are no more lists.
Drop Non-Matches If an IP is NOT found in the list, it will be blocked. IPs found in the list will continue to the next list or not be blocked if there are no more lists.
Accept Matches If an IP is found in the list, it will not be blocked. IPs not found in the list will continue to the next list or not be blocked if there are no more lists.
Accept Non-Matches If an IP is NOT found in the list, it will not be blocked. IPs found in the list will continue to the next list or not be blocked if there are no more lists.


IPv6 Blocklist Format


As of version 1.85, blocklists can contain IPv6 addresses.

An example of the preferred format:
example network to block:[2001:db8::]/32

Ranges can also be specified:
another example:[2001:db8:3000::]-[2001:db8:3fff::]

You can omit the [] brackets around each address IF the description does not contain any : characters. In other words, the first : character from the left must mark the beginning of an address, unless all addresses are enclosed in [] brackets as in our examples above.


Country-Based IP Blocking


Simply click the Add button, and instead of entering a URL, enter a single @ character followed by one or more ISO 3166-1 alpha-2(external link) country codes, separated by spaces.
