Disable mitigation

Remove the IP only after confirming that this is the intended action. Press Disable Mitigation, wait for the response, and verify Disabled. This changes mitigation state and does not delete saved rules.

Errors and restrictions

  • The server must permit manual changes for your account
  • You can operate only authorized IP ranges
  • Network, gateway and broadcast addresses are rejected
  • A three-minute cooldown follows every change
  • If the provider rejects the operation, keep the previous state until verification

Frequently asked questions

Why is the button missing?

Availability depends on service configuration and IP access. Contact support; there is no documented public workaround.

Does enabling create or delete rules?

No. The toggle changes mitigation state; rules are managed separately.
