    When adding IP’s to the blacklist I get the error:
    Network error: Connection refused (WHOIS server: whois.iana.org).
    The whois.iana.org is live and in my security plugins the firewall looks well.
    So why am I refused ?

    It’s not WordPress or plugin related, but the firewall of the hosting server.
    Let enable whois.iana.org with port 43 and TCP protocol.
    Same for whois.arin.net

    I say “Same for whois.arin.net”, but that doesn’t seem to work.
    My hosting provider put port 43 open for IPv4 and IPv6 with TCP.
    They tried to reproduce in Word press with WP Cerber, but still there is a network error but now for whois.arin.net

    What can be the problem ?
