# Enable staged ModSecurity configuration files

This function deploys the staged changes to your modsec2.cpanel.conf file and
attempts to restart Apache. If the new settings fail validation, the system restores
the /etc/apache2/conf.d/modsec/modsec2.cpanel.conf file.

Note:

Call the WHM API 1 modsec_set_setting function to prepare your changes for
the modsec2.cpanel.conf file.

Important:

When you disable the
Web Server role,
the system disables this function.
