BLOCK BAD REPUTATION IPS IN A DYNAMIC WAY

[K_montalvo]

Hello experts,

Kindly guide me if its possible to have like a rule, blade or external connector or any recommended configuration in order to have protection on the Gateway perimeter  to block malicious reported IP address range like botnets, hackers etc? This is with the purpose to reduce having to create objects and manually applied to specific existing block rule on the network access layer.

Thanks!

Well, you would be managing it from actual management server, NOT locally, so object in dashboard would need to have proper topology, rules etc. Honestly, I would not take any such steps yet, maybe open TAC case and ask to get an official answer to your question about best way to block malicious IPs on locally managed SMB appliance.

Thats at least what I would do : - )
