What will happen if we edit the wideip.conf file in GTM ?

Hi Team,     i want to know what may happen if I edit the wideip.conf file in GTM and make additions. Will anything break?? Just wanted to check with you folks. Will it be functional??

It shouldn't break provided the syntax is correct but you have to be careful not to make changes via the GUI and by directly editing the file - otherwise you can get into a real nightmare.

 

 

I definately recommend backing up the wideip.conf so you can quickly revert any changes.

 

 

Let us know how it goes,
