# Manage Edge Proxy

Use the **Protected servers** page to enable, disable, reconfigure, or delete a server without reprovisioning it.

## Protected servers

Navigate to **Security → Edge Proxy → Protected servers** to view all configured servers.

Each server card shows:

| Field            | Description                                                               |
| ---------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Server name**  | Display label with a toggle to enable or disable protection               |
| **Status**       | **Online** (active), **Stopped** (paused), or **Processing** (activating) |
| **Proxy IP**     | The public IP that clients connect to                                     |
| **Origin**       | The origin server IP (masked in the list view)                            |
| **Applications** | Game protection profiles and configured ports                             |

### Enable and disable protection

Use the toggle next to the server name to pause or resume protection without deleting the server.

* Toggle **on** — starts activation. The card shows **Processing (\~3 min)** while Gcore provisions the proxy. Once complete, status changes to **Online** and traffic routes through the proxy IP.
* Toggle **off** — protection pauses immediately. Status changes to **Stopped**. The proxy IP remains assigned but stops forwarding traffic.

### Edit a server

Click **Edit protection** on the server card to open the **Edit server** panel.

</Frame>

The panel supports the following changes:

* **Server name** — rename the server.
* **Origin IP** — change the origin server address.
* **Applications** — add or remove application profiles. To remove an application, delete all its ports.
* **Ports** — add or remove ports and select the protocol (TCP or UDP).
* **Proxy protocol** — enable PROXY protocol v1 or v2 for individual ports.

Click **Save changes**.

### Delete a server

Click **Delete server** inside the edit panel. A confirmation dialog appears with the server name and the message "This will permanently remove \[name] and all its application configurations." Click **Delete** to confirm.

Alternatively, click **Delete protection** on the server card in the Protected servers list and confirm in the same dialog.

## Monitor traffic

Traffic Overview (**Security → Edge Proxy → Traffic Overview**) displays aggregated traffic across all active servers.

### Metrics

The page shows four metrics for packets (pps) and bits (bps), and two charts — **Packets (pps)** and **Bits (bps)** — each plotting **Input** (all received), **Drop** (blocked), and **Pass** (forwarded to origin). Use the dropdown to select a time range from one hour to three months, or set a custom range with the date fields.

| Metric                     | Description                                                     |
| -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **MAX INBOUND**            | Maximum total traffic received at the Edge Proxy endpoint       |
| **MAX BLOCKED**            | Maximum traffic identified as malicious and dropped             |
| **MAX CLEAN**              | Maximum clean traffic forwarded to the origin server            |
| **95TH PERCENTILE PASSED** | 95th percentile of traffic forwarded during the selected period |
