 ## ✅ Features
 1. **Easy Configuration** – The [`config.js`](config.default.js) file allows for quick and simple configuration.
 2. **Simple Installer** – Enables fast and seamless integration deployment.
-3. **Bulk Reporting Support** – If the script encounters a rate limit, it will start buffering collected IPs and send a bulk report.
-4. **Self-IP Protection (IPv4 & IPv6)** – The script will never report IP addresses belonging to you or your server, even if you're using a dynamic IP address.
-5. **Local IP Filtering** – Local IP addresses will never be reported.
-6. **Discord Webhooks Integration**:
+3. **Self-IP Protection (IPv4 & IPv6)** – The script will never report IP addresses belonging to you or your server, even if you're using a dynamic IP address.
+4. **IP Filtering** – Local and special-purpose IP addresses will never be reported.
+5. **IP Whitelist** – Maintain a `whitelist.txt` file with IP addresses that should never be reported (e.g., your home IP when running on a VPS).
+6. **UDP Traffic Filtering** – UDP traffic is automatically skipped in accordance with [AbuseIPDB's policy](https://github.com/sefinek/UFW-AbuseIPDB-Reporter/discussions/2).
+7. **Report Cooldown** – Prevents duplicate reports of the same IP within a configurable time window (default: 12 hours).
+8. **Bulk Reporting Support** – If the script encounters a rate limit, it will start buffering collected IPs and send a bulk report.
+9. **Discord Webhooks Integration**:
    - Critical notifications
    - Script error alerts
    - Daily summaries of reported IPs
-7. **Automatic Updates** – The script regularly fetches and applies the latest updates. You can disable this feature if you'd prefer.
