The blocklist
The blocklist (formerly known as blacklist) is a list of IP addresses and networks (CIDR notation) that are blocked by Syncplify Server! and cannot connect to any of its protocol handlers.
Items in this list can be added manually by an administrator, or automatically by Syncplify’s Protector™ subsystem, an intelligent attack detector capable of identifying potentially dangerous situations and auto-block the IP address of the perpetrator’s client.
IP addresses that automatically added by Protector™ are only temporarily blocked. If they keep trying to connect while blocked, though, each attempt will result in the temporary ban to be extended.
The image here above shows a network (class C) manually and permanently added to the blocklist by an administrator, as well as an individual IP address temporarily added (automatically) by Protector™.
