Blocking TLDs

Blocking by TLDs (Top Level Domains) is used to restrict access to internet domains based on their final extension.

TLDs are the endings of website addresses, such as:

  • .com
  • .org
  • .net
  • .br
  • .xyz

The feature is available on the Policies page, in the Security and Privacy section, as shown in the screenshot below:TLDS editado en-us

By clicking on the field, you will see the section of TLDs with a high incidence of abuse and other suggestions for blocking. If you want to block a specific TLD, simply search for the desired one and click on the block button.

Attention and precautions for using this feature

  • Blocking TLDs means preventing access to any domain that ends with the selected extension. For example: Blocking the .net TLD will prevent access to any website that ends with .net, such as example.net.

  • Avoid unwanted blocking. Some web services use domains with unusual TLDs and may be affected by incorrect blocking.

  • Monitor Lumiun DNS logs to identify blocked accesses. The reports show the reason for the block, in this case, TLDs.

If you have any questions regarding usage, please do not hesitate to contact the Lumiun support team!
