# IPDS | Blacklists | Create

Creating a customized blacklist allows you to configure a set of IP addresses and subnets specific to your infrastructure, using a **Deny** or **Allow** policy.

To create a new blacklist, navigate to the **IPDS > Blacklists** section and select the **Create Blacklist** option.

The required fields to create a new blacklist are:

**Name**. The descriptive name for the blacklist.
  **Type**. Specifies whether the list is obtained from a **Local** or **Remote** location. If **Remote**, an **URL** is required to download the list.
  **Policy**. Defines whether the list is for **Deny** (blacklists) or **Allow** (whitelists).
  **URL**. This field appears only if the type selected is **Remote** and is used to set the **URL** of the remote blacklist for automatic download and updates.

Once you have filled in the required fields, click on the **Create** button to generate the new blacklist. Additional configuration fields will appear on the next screen based on the field type selected. Detailed instructions for these configurations can be found in the next section.
