To get started, open your Matomo dashboard and navigate to Administration > Websites > Manage. Select the website you want to update, click the edit icon, and enter the IP addresses you wish to exclude in the Excluded IPs field.

You can exclude IPs for all the websites managed in Matomo by navigating to Administration > Websites and selecting Settings.
