  • Given that IP addresses can be reused over a period of time, blocking IP addresses is riskier than blocking domains or hostnames. So, to avoid false positives, for those external or third-party IP-based feeds like DHS_AIS_IP that are added to policy through voluntary addition (other than what’s provided by default), Infoblox recommends only an Allow-With Log policy action and not a Block policy action.
  • Ensure that the precedence order assigned to the Security Policies are properly configured.
  • Make sure that Geolocation option is enabled in Security Policy to ensure that the ECS supported domains should get DNS response accordingly from the authoritative nameservers. For more information, see Best Practices for Data Connector. 
  • Ensure that the precedence order assigned to the Security Policies are properly configured.
