Cloudflare evaluates different types of rules when processing incoming requests. The rule execution order is the following:

1. [Firewall rules](/firewall/cf-firewall-rules/) (deprecated)
2. [Custom rulesets](/waf/account/custom-rulesets/)
3. [Custom rules](/waf/custom-rules/)
4. [Rate limiting rules](/waf/rate-limiting-rules/)
5. [WAF Managed Rules](/waf/managed-rules/)
6. [Cloudflare Rate Limiting](/waf/reference/legacy/old-rate-limiting/) (previous version, deprecated)
1. [IP Access Rules](/waf/tools/ip-access-rules/)
2. [Firewall rules](/firewall/cf-firewall-rules/) (deprecated)
3. [Custom rulesets](/waf/account/custom-rulesets/)
4. [Custom rules](/waf/custom-rules/)
5. [Rate limiting rules](/waf/rate-limiting-rules/)
6. [WAF Managed Rules](/waf/managed-rules/)
7. [Cloudflare Rate Limiting](/waf/reference/legacy/old-rate-limiting/) (previous version, deprecated)

Rules are evaluated in order. If there is a match for a rule with a [terminating action](/ruleset-engine/rules-language/actions/), the rule evaluation will stop and the action will be executed immediately. Rules with a non-terminating action (such as _Log_) will not prevent subsequent rules from being evaluated and executed. For more information on how rules are evaluated, refer to [Rule evaluation](/ruleset-engine/about/rules/#rule-evaluation) in the Ruleset Engine documentation.
