CSF firewall blocking me all the time.

Hello,

So, I moved to a new server and install the CSF firewall.

So, im busy transferring all the domains to that server. So, now this morning i try to login in the WHM, cPanel. But it says "The connection timed out. Please try again."
Even I can't visit websites.
So, that's so annoying that its even block myself on the firewall.

So, my question is. Is there any configuration how to set this to a flexible setting for only logins on the panels??


Thank you and regards,
Dave.

So, i find out.

For the moment use 58.253.0.0/16 to unblock that range of IP numbers.

So, i don't know if this is the right configuration.

Just so you know a /16 IP block consists of over 65,000 ip addresses. It's an extraordinarily bad idea to whitelist such a large chunk of the IP space.

The range of IP's your whitelisting is: 58.253.0.0 - 58.253.255.254 which is 65,534 total IP's.
