Description

Lists

If you want to perform JavaScript validation and bot management for multiple IP addresses or CIDR blocks, you can specify different IP addresses or CIDR blocks in a list. Then, you can reference the list when you configure protection rules such as Web Application Firewall (WAF) or bot management rules. This helps prevent repeated entry of IP addresses or CIDR blocks.

Scenario policies

Your website anticipates much higher traffic than usual during major events such as new game launching and e-commerce promotions. In this case, you can create scenario policies to apply the Major Events template. This template automatically adjusts anti-DDoS protection policies during major events to prevent blocking normal requests.

Custom pages

By default, pages with an Edge Security Acceleration (ESA) identifier and the 403 error code are returned for requests that are blocked by ESA. If you want to use a personalized page with a business identifier, you can create a custom error page.
