# Quarantined

## Overview

The quarantined section will show requestors that have been banned for violation of the [Dynamic Rules](https://waap.docs.link11.com/v2.16/product-walkthrough/security/dynamic-rules) and [Rate Limiting](https://waap.docs.link11.com/v2.16/product-walkthrough/security/rate-limiting) rules, requestors that have been blacklisted, and requestors that have been whitelisted. You can add and remove requestors, and transfer them among the various lists.&#x20;

## Main Display

There are four lists of requestors in this section:

1. **Banlist**
2. **Simulation Banlist**
3. **Blacklist**
4. **Whitelist**

Each is described in more detail below.

For each entry, it's possible to see the following: IP address, origin country, AS number, the violation that was triggered, "CNT/Limit" (the number of violations compared to the allowable limit), when the ban began, and when the ban will expire.&#x20;

### **Banlist**&#x20;

**All requests from these requestors are currently being rejected.** These requestors violated a rule that was set to “Ban” mode.&#x20;

### **Simulation Banlist**

**These requestors are NOT having all their requests rejected.** These requestors violated a rule that was set to “Simulated Ban” mode. Simulated Bans are used mainly for testing new rules and seeing how they function, before converting those rules to Ban mode.

### Blacklist

**All requests from these requestors are currently being rejected.** These requestors were placed here by a Reblaze admin.

### Whitelist

**These requestors are exempted from the Dynamic Rules and Rate Limiting Rules.** For example, even if they violate a rate limit, they will not be banned.&#x20;

## Managing Requestors on the Lists

On the right part of the screen is the section menu, invoked via the button with three vertical dots:<img src="https://2274678796-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LuRghgerfT6t9aVOOha%2F-LxaWDj50fTr8sz8PJI7%2F-LxafvYyZI_7ss1NFkF-%2FScreenshot%202020-01-02%2016.36.22.png?alt=media&#x26;token=51f9783f-b3ff-4293-90d3-e3beb21fd677" alt="" data-size="line">. Depending on context, the section menu will offer the management abilities described below.

## Adding an Entry

#### Banlist and Simulation Banlist

Requestors are added to the Banlist and Simulation Banlist automatically when they violate a Dynamic Rule or Rate Limiting Rule.&#x20;

#### Blacklist and Whitelist

You can add a requestor manually to the Whitelist or Blacklist using the "Add New Entry" option in the section menu. This is demonstrated in the following video:

| **Expiration** | The expiration of the entry, in Hours or Minutes (only relevant for blacklists).                                                    |

## Transferring an Entry

Requestors can be transferred among the various lists with this procedure:

1. Select the requestor(s) by checking the box at the left of each entry.
2. Open the section menu.
3. Choose the desired "Move to" command (e.g., "Move to Whitelist").

{% hint style="info" %}
Moving an item to the Banlist can only be done from the Simulation Banlist.&#x20;
{% endhint %}

## Removing an Entry&#x20;

### Automatic Removal

Requestors on the Banlist, Simulation Banlist, or Blacklist will be automatically removed when their expiration time is reached. (The Whitelist has no expiration time.)

### Manual Removal&#x20;

Requestors can be manually removed from the list they are currently on:

1. Select the requestor(s) by checking the box at the left of each entry.
2. Open the section menu by clicking on its button (<img src="https://2274678796-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-legacy-files/o/assets%2F-LuRghgerfT6t9aVOOha%2F-LxaWDj50fTr8sz8PJI7%2F-LxafvYyZI_7ss1NFkF-%2FScreenshot%202020-01-02%2016.36.22.png?alt=media&#x26;token=51f9783f-b3ff-4293-90d3-e3beb21fd677" alt="" data-size="line">).
