Set mod_qos to ignore Google IPs

I use mod_qos and I want to put in settings to ignore Google Bot IPs. Now I have



# handles connections from up to 100000 different IPs
QS_ClientEntries 100000
# allow only 20 connections per IP
QS_SrvMaxConnPerIP 10
# maximum number of active TCP connections is limited to 256
MaxClients 256
# disables keep-alive when 70% of the TCP connections are occupied:
QS_SrvMaxConnClose 180
# minimum request/response speed (deny slow clients blocking the server, ie. slowloris keeping connections open without requesting anything). Example: Requires a minimum of 150 bytes per second per connection, and limits the connection to 1200 bytes per second when the server reaches the MaxClients limit.:
QS_SrvMinDataRate 150 1200
# and limit request header and body (carefull, that limits uploads and post requests too):
# LimitRequestFields 30
# QS_LimitRequestBody 102400
#
# disables connection restrictions for certain clients like Google IP ranges:
QS_SrvMaxConnExcludeIP 66.249.

# restricts max concurrent requests for any location which has no individual rule:
QS_LocRequestLimitDefault 100

but google is blocked. Were is the problem? Many thanks!

Hello, Is it possible the IP addresses are blocked by another application? What's the specific entry you see in /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log when the IP address is blocked? Thank you.

No, I have only csf for blocking IP. In error_log I have [Mon Jun 20 22:18:39 2016] [error] [client 66.249.66.185] mod_qos(045): access denied, invalid request line: can't parse uri, c=66.249.66.185, id=V2hBj1vYnEYADY769aYAAAAF

Hello, Are your other mod_qos rules working as expected? I did see one external URL regarding mod_qos and CSF at: mod_qos for Apache 2.2 on Cpanel | Cyanweb, Perth WA Thank you.
