A mitigation already exists for the IP address

Description

Starting a manual mitigation fails. The dialog shows the message There is already a mitigation running for this IP.

The error occurs when a mitigation is already running for the IP address entered. A second mitigation for the same IP address is not possible.

Resolution

Proceed as follows to resolve the error:

  • Open the Dashboard view and check the running mitigations.
  • If the running mitigation is still needed, cancel the process.
  • If you want to replace the mitigation, stop the running mitigation and start it again afterwards, see section Stop manual mitigations.
  • Exactly one mitigation runs for the IP address.
