So that, your origin web server will receives traffic from Cloudflare IP addresses due to Cloudflare’s reverse proxy.Blocking or rate limiting Cloudflare connections prevents visitor traffic from reaching your website.To avoid blocking Cloudflare IPs unintentionally check that:

  • Your origin web server iptables are set to trust Cloudflare IPs.
  • Bad Beha vior or mod_security is up to date.
  • Your htaccess file whitelist Cloudflare IPs.
  • Any security plugins, such as WordPress security plugins, whitelist Cloudflare IPs.
