[jira] [Created] (INFRA-10815) Please unblock IBM Rochester addresses from website access

Kurt Altmann created INFRA-10815:
------------------------------------

             Summary: Please unblock IBM Rochester addresses from website access
                 Key: INFRA-10815
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-10815
             Project: Infrastructure
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Website
            Reporter: Kurt Altmann


Based on IBMs discovery of source IPs that were causing JMETER access of apache.org,   (documented in now-closed INFRA-10757) and correcting those scripts,  IBM is requesting the revert of the block that was put in place.  It should also be noted, that it was discovered by the same people who made the mistake - that JMETER , when downloaded from the site - came with a DEFAULT parameter that was set to apache.org.  It was the users neglect to change that default - which led to the traffic storm to apache.org.  You may want to consider not having the site default be apache.org. We also sent an email to root, not knowing process to request the revert of block. Please let me know if questions.
