Well, there are two ways.

1. Buy a Cloudflare Pro package and enable WAF function.

2. Go to cloudflare and select your site. Then click the firewall tab, and then Select Firewall rules.

Add a firewall rule (http.host eq "sitedomain.com") and Choose an action will be set to Captcha.

The second option force everyone to solve the captcha to enter the site. If this bothers you, buy a Pro Package.

@legendsehi You can keep DNS Cloudflare, and only change the IP address provided by Ddos-guard, but the orange cloud must not be active for this IP.

@Silv3er you mean i need to delete my old ip address pointing to my host and change it to my website's IP address provided by Ddos-guard?

To do that i need to create an A record in DNS records right?
