Flood control IP bypass whitelist I am utilising Services to open up some login resources on my site and as a result if multiple users incorrectly try to sign in the entire external website will be blocked because of flood control.

Is there a way to add an IP whitelist to the flood so that there can be an unlimited number of requests from those IPs without them being blocked?
Try flood_unblock module and flood_control I think both will help you with your requirements, choose the best based on your use case.
