WAF Events


  • The events page shows all traffic intercepted by a firewall rule.
  • Event details include the source IP of the attempt, the rule that caught the attempt, and the action taken on the traffic.
  • You can also choose how to deal with future incidents of the same type from the same source.


Notes:

  • The web application firewall is only available on 'Pro', 'Premium' and 'WAF Starter' licenses.
  • To enable the firewall, you need to change the authoritative DNS of the site to Comodo Secure DNS. See DNS Configuration for help with this.


View WAF Events
  • Open the cWatch dashboard
  • Select the target website from the menu at top-left
  • Click the 'Firewall' tab
  • Open the 'Events' tab




  • Rule Name - The firewall rule that intercepted the access request
  • Action - The activity of the access request on the website
  • IP - The address of the source of the access request
  • Country - The country from which the access request came
  • Date - The date and time of the access request
  • Choose action - Specify how to deal with future traffic from the same IP address.


  • Allow - All traffic from the IP is permitted. This includes legitimate traffic, bots, malicious traffic etc.
  • Block - No traffic is allowed from the IP. An error message is shown to users.

The action you choose above will start a wizard to create a custom firewall rule. Custom firewall rules require a 'Premium' license for the site.


Click 'Apply' to save your choice. See Manage Custom Firewall Rules for help on custom firewall rules.
