Question Exclude IP Adress in Nginx Webserver

Pamibo

New Pleskian
Hello,
how can I teach the Nginx web server under Plesk Onyx to exclude the IP adress for example 1.2.3.1-1.2.3.255?
Where do I have to enter the IPs to be blocked?
Thanks for help
Paul
 
I am not sure if I fully understand your question. Do you want to block IP addresses and IP ranges to access your websites/server?
 
Yes, thats what I want. To block adresses from China Bots or US Bots for example.
I had a lot of them blocked with htaccess, but now I need to use Nginx and want to do the same
 
Instead of using Nginx you are probably better off using the Plesk Firewall. You can find the Plesk Firewall under Tools & Settings > Security.plesk.png

Also do you have fail2ban running on your server? Fail2ban automatically bans IP address that try to brute force attack your server. A really useful tool! More info on: Protection Against Brute Force Attacks (Fail2Ban)
