Hi Forum.

since a few days AdminTools blocks following IPv6 adress: 2003:df:f3d6:7a00:a99c:16df:3358:4a94

No problem I thought, but using Google PageSpeed Insights I got an error 403. Deleting the IP from AdminTools PageSpeed Insights works fine again. One hour later the same address is blocked again.

I'm not sure to insert this address in my whitelist. Anyone an idea why or what this IP do this.

Regards Bernhard

Google will NOT give you their IP addresses. When they get blocked you are supposed to manually whitelist them, i.e. add them to the "Never block these IP addresses". Also note that Google considers this tool deprecated and will remove access to it in the future. This explains why they are unwilling to offer any help regarding which IP addresses it uses.

In case the IP looks "strange" to you please note that it is an IPv6 address.
