# Allow SEMrush Access

 * A client has hired an SEO company that uses SEMrush to analyze the site. WP Security
   is blocking SEMrush. It’s not the host, robots, no-index, .htaccess.
 * We need to be able to whitelist the following IPs in the plugin:
    46.229.173.68
   46.229.173.67 46.229.173.66
 * We don’t believe there is a whitelist option in the plugin. We saw some advice
   to turn off the entire firewall and then start enabling one item at a time, but
   this seems counter intuitive, even dangerous.
 * 1. Wouldn’t that create more vulnerability instead of disabling one firewall 
   feature at a time?
 * 3. What is your best guess at that setting, the Fake Googlebot one? That info
   would be helpful because we don’t have an SEMrush account and have to relay back
   and forth between the SEO company for each option we try.
 * Thanks! Surely the answer to this will help others.

 * Hi, go to **WP Security -> Brute Force -> Login Whitelist** to whitelist any 
   IP address of your choosing.
 * Let me know if you need more help.
 * Thank you
