Whitelist ip and maximizing wp limits

Whitelisting IP addresses lets authorized visitors through while blocking access to others who aren’t supposed to be there. This way you are controling who is accessing your site. :)

Whitelist vs Blacklist:

Whitelisting – this way you are telling your server to block ALL traffic except for the specified IP addresses.

Blacklisting – this way you are telling your server to allow ALL traffic except for the specified IP addresses.

There are several ways to whitelist ips:

1. Whitelist ip on Apache servers via .htaccess file - This is done via cpanel or ftp. If you aren't profficient, ask your hosting support to do it for you :)

2. Whitelist IP Addresses on Nginx Web Servers - It's similar to previous option. The difference is on Apache servers you are editing .htaccess file, on Nginx servers you are adding configuration. You will need to follow your hosting instructions or ask them to do it for you. :)

3. Using wordpress plugin to whitelist ip - There are a lot of antispam and security plugins available to wordpress users, some are free, some are premium. Like Wordfence, Sucuri, Loginizer etc. Each plugin has it's own settings for whitelisting ips, so you will need to consult their instructions and contact security plugin support if necessary.

Xagio servers current ips are following: 

64.227.10.134

134.209.123.53

They can be changed at any time, so if you run into issues, check this article again or/and contact our support. :)

And make sure that url /wp-json/ on your WordPress is whitelisted as well and not being blocked.

You can check system status and current limits  set for your site via Xagio system status tab.

If you need to maximize wp limits, or set higher limit, you will do it inside your cpanel, by editing wordpress configuring file ( wp-config.php file ) 

Each  hosting has it's own steps to follow. Check your hosting documentation or ask them to do it for you. :)
