FAQ
A few things you might ask.
Do I still need a firewall on the server?
A host firewall remains useful as another layer of control. Coordinate network and host rules with your application configuration and patching.
Will it block my visitors?
Rules should allow legitimate application traffic. Incorrect rules can block visitors or administrators, so test required access and retain a recovery path.
Can it block outgoing traffic too?
Outbound filtering depends on the selected provider and firewall capabilities. Confirm supported directions and defaults with our team before relying on a policy.
Does it stop a DDoS attack?
A network firewall is not a substitute for dedicated DDoS mitigation. Large attacks and application-layer abuse may need additional provider protections or specialised services.
