How do I block a range of IP addresses?

It is possible to block a range of IP addresses from accessing your web site. To do this, follow these instructions:

Step 1: Log in to your cPanel.

Step 2: Once you are logged in, click the 'IP Deny Manager' icon under the 'Security' menu.

Step 3: Where it says '
IP Address or Domain:' and has a blank box next to it, enter the IP range to block in the blank box. This can be entered as a range, as an implied range, in CIDR format or a class. All of the following are acceptable examples:

10.5.3.3-10.5.3.40
Range
10.5.3.5-40
Implied Range
10.5.3.3/32
CIDR Format
10.
Implies 10.*.*.*

Step 4: Click the 'Add' button.

You may add as many IP address ranges as you want this way.
