Receiving quarantined source IP addresses from FortiGate

FortiGate can maintain a list of source IPs that it prevents from interacting with the network and protected systems. You can configure FortiWeb to receive this list of IP addresses at intervals you specify. You can then configure an inline protection profile to detect the IP addresses in the list and take an appropriate action.

This feature is available only if the operating mode is Reverse Proxy or True Transparent Proxy.
