# Block_report Rule Behavior

This article provides a high-level explanation as to why block_report is an entry found in an event log. A block-report is a set of rules to block access. The block occurs when no endpoint traffic is recognized.

## Configurations

- OTP is configured in Conditions for accessing Server_X.
- OTP has valid period of 23 hours by default. This can be modified to be a longer period of time.
  - Five (5) minutes before the 23rd hour mark, the Gateway will reevaluate to see if the OTP is still valid.
  - This will trigger an OTP and prolong the OTP for another 23 hours.
- OTP should have a time-based reevaluation set to 15 minutes.
  - Every 15 minutes the Gateway will reevaluate to see if the OTP is still valid.

**Resolving the problem:** Once the OTP is entered, the block_report will not appear in the event logs.
