I was given a private IP by Flound which did work for my API reader. But this is not a permanent solution to redirect everybody to a private IP address to use an API. API pages cannot be protected by Incapsula, because it is intended to be used between a browser and a website. API on the other hand is not accessed from the browser most of the time but rather it is access by some script (unfortunately DDOS attacks are done by the scripts as well) . So the error messages should not be in HTML but they should be in JSON as API is using json as an output.
I see cryptsy is using a separate domain/IP address for its API for the reasons listed above.
Thanks for the reply. Hopefully for the short term Flounder will get back to me with a solution for me, alternative address or whitelist if possible. I love the amount of info shared in the site unlike some other multi pool like sites, but can't stand not having my consolidated mobile view.
Thanks.
