How can I deny all other traffic than what originates from cloudflare in my firewall?
So the thing is when i go to an online website ip finder type website and find my website’s IP address and search for it cloudfare says direct ip access not allowed but when using droplet ip does not work. How can I deny all other traffic than what originates from cloudflare in my firewall to make that happen for droplet ip too?

To elaborate: When I go to websites that find websites IPs like https://ipinfo.info and paste the IP into the browser I get the “ Error 1003 - Direct IP access not allowed” page. However when I go to my DigitalOcean’s droplet’s IP address I see the actual page’s content (example.com) . How would I set it up so for both the IP in the online IP finders and my DigitalOcean’s droplet’s IP both lead to the “ Error 1003 - Direct IP access not allowed” page? Thanks
log in to your CloudFlare account and select Firewall from the menu. Then, click IP Firewall. Now, enter an IP address, an IP range, or a two-letter country code you wish to block. Set your rule to either block, whitelist, or challenge, and choose which of your websites to apply this rule to.
I hope this will help.
