I;ve been looking for a way to add domains to the whitelist to prevent
active-response. I can see similar questions have been asked but I can
not find any with an answer.

The issue is active-response taking action against a web crawler
(Google, etc) if they attempt to crawl many pages that no longer
exist. Most search engines do not publish an IP range/block and
require a host lookup.

As I understand it the whitelist can take a set of IP addresses or an
IP block, can it take a domain name e.g. googlebot.com

If not has anyone successfully and safely found a way to use active-
response without it resulting in blocking search engines?
