The certificate is activated on the <strong><em>&#8220;Cloudflare&#8221;<\/em><\/strong> side, and the data encryption itself occurs between the internet user and <strong><em>&#8220;Cloudflare&#8221;<\/em><\/strong> servers. A requirement for the <strong><em>&#8220;Cloudflare&#8221;<\/em><\/strong> certificate to work is to have active protection for the main domain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Protection_Level\"><\/span>Protection Level<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Five protection statuses are available: disabled, low, medium, high, I&#8217;m Under Attack. The levels are based on increasing the probability of a user being challenged to prove they are not a bot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Disabled \u2013 allows access to the site from any IP address.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Low \u2013 people who notoriously try to access the site causing artificial traffic receive a captcha notification.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Medium \u2013 optimal level for websites. People who relatively often cause artificial traffic on the site are also blocked by captcha.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>High \u2013 if the IP address of a person connecting to the site within the last 14 days was identified as unwanted, it is blocked by captcha.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>I&#8217;m Under Attack \u2013 if this option is selected, the site will require access to content to be confirmed via captcha. This option is recommended only when a DDoS attack is detected.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cache_Level\"><\/span>Cache Level<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Three caching modes are available: standard, no Query String, ignore Query String. This option enables faster content delivery to the user via CDN. It provides load balancing, distributing content among 101 data centers, where data on the site is displayed from the closest server. All of this speeds up the website&#8217;s operation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Standard \u2013 delivers different content if the Query String has changed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Without Query String \u2013 delivers content from cache without Query String.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ignore Query String \u2013 delivers the same content regardless of the Query String.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Developer_Mode\"><\/span>Developer Mode<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This mode disables caching and mechanisms responsible for HTML\/CSS optimization, so the response received from the <strong><em>&#8220;Cloudflare&#8221;<\/em><\/strong> server is identical to that from our server. This option deactivates all additional <strong><em>&#8220;Cloudflare&#8221;<\/em><\/strong> mechanisms. It does not refresh the site cache.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Rocket_Loader\"><\/span>Rocket Loader<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Which means automatically reducing the number of network connections and ensuring that third-party content does not slow down your website&#8217;s presentation. This option may negatively affect sites based on AJAX scripts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"IPv6\"><\/span>IPv6<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enables access to your site from IPv6 addresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"IP_Geolocation\"><\/span>IP Geolocation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Information about the IP geolocation of the client who connects to your site is added to the HTTP headers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Email address protection \u2013 phrases on your site in the form of an email address are modified in such a way that they do not point to an actual email. They are then appropriately modified, e.g., the @ symbol is removed. Thanks to this solution, bots that scan websites do not use the contact form for spamming. Changes occur on the source code side of the page, e.g., HTML, so you don&#8217;t have to worry that the address will be distorted in the browser.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","manualknowledgebasecat":[12,25],"manual_kb_tag":[2862,2863,2864,2865,2866,2867,2868,175,699,2421],"class_list":["post-592","manual_kb","type-manual_kb","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","manualknowledgebasecat-cloudflare","manualknowledgebasecat-hosting","manual_kb_tag-cloudflare-configuration","manual_kb_tag-activate-cloudflare","manual_kb_tag-deactivate-cloudflare","manual_kb_tag-cloudflare-activation-status","manual_kb_tag-awaiting-cloudflare-activation","manual_kb_tag-cloudflare-active","manual_kb_tag-cloudflare-certificate","manual_kb_tag-nameserver-delegation","manual_kb_tag-dns-delegation","manual_kb_tag-change-nameservers"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/592","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/manual_kb"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/592\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3874,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb\/592\/revisions\/3874"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=592"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"manualknowledgebasecat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manualknowledgebasecat?post=592"},{"taxonomy":"manual_kb_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mybox.com\/help\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/manual_kb_tag?post=592"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
