You can configure this at the site level within your Application.cfc using the "this.EnableRobustException" property:

Example "Application.cfc" file:

<cfcomponent>
    <cfset this.Name = "My Application Name" />
    <cfset this.EnableRobustException = "True" />
</cfcomponent>

Example for restricting based on IP address:

NOTE: Replace "123.123.123.123" with your actual IP address.

<cfcomponent>
    <cfset this.Name = "My Application Name" />
    <cfif CGI.REMOTE_ADDR EQ "123.123.123.123">
         <cfset this.EnableRobustException = "True" />
    </cfif>
</cfcomponent>
