Hi all

trying to block AI bots, I created a new ruleset (see attachment) and applied to my farms
I set to block but the traffic is still passing

Any hint?

TIA

Hi, change the block action in the rules to deny, and it should work. See the documentation to understand the difference between block and deny. 

 

Regards!
