[analog-help] Excluding robots, crawlers etc.

[Esposito, Richard]

Hello,

I apologize in advance for the rudimentary nature of this question. I
have a bit of trouble deciphering the documentation. So here goes.

It is starting to look like robots and or crawlers are causing almost
5/6 of the traffic to my site. I know the IP address for each of these
robots/crawlers, so is  this the correct syntax for config commands to
exclude that activity from the page requests results? 

HOSTEXCLUDE 130.247.17.109
HOSTEXCLUDE 130.42.73.225
HOSTEXCLUDE 130.42.73.184
HOSTEXCLUDE 141.102.39.233

Or is some overall command required before the above lines? Thanks.

Richard
