IP restriction page
IP restriction page appears when a reader tries to access the Knowledge base site URL from any restricted IP address.
For example, if you have restricted the Knowledge base site to appear only for a particular IP range, and a reader tries to access the site from IP not included in the range, the IP restriction page appears
Customize the IP restriction page of your knowledge base site and provide a descriptive reason with a solution such as 'Contact the admin for access'. This would allow the readers to understand the reason and solution. You cannot switch back to your default IP restriction page after configuring a custom IP restriction page. It is recommended to have a custom IP restriction page to enhance the reader experience.
