What is Firewall?

What happens when your IP is blocked by firewall?
If your IP is blocked by firewall, You can not browse your website from your blocked ip. You cannot even ping, access cPanel, webmail, FTP & WHM.

Why the firewall blocks ip?
The server firewall blocks ip because of incorrect cpanel, webmail, ftp & whm login attempts. Moreover it can also blocks ip for any suspicious behaviour or activity from your ip.

Test whether your website is running fine?
