| 281 | 29 host_guard_blockall_exceptions = { "i_can_access.no_access.yourhost.com" } -- optional exceptions for the above. |
| 280 | 30 host_guard_selective = { "no_access_from_blsted.myhost.com", "no_access_from_blsted.mycomponent.com" } -- insert here the local hosts where you want to employ blacklisting. |
| 281 | 31 host_guard_blacklist = { "remoterogueserver.com", "remoterogueserver2.com" } -- above option/mode mandates the use of a blacklist, you may blacklist remote servers here. |
