Each time an edit is made with the WAF settings, there are warning(s) and an error message that displays upon save. However, when I click save a second time, without changing anything, it displays, "The Web Application Firewall's configuration was saved." 

Warnings include:

Field required: File path

Field required: Domain name

Field required: User

Field required: IP Address

Field required: Username

 

See screenshots. 

 

Any recommendations?

Some options seem to be empty. With the very limited screenshots which focus only on the message I can guess that at least Allowed domains and Never block these IPs have a row which is empty.

Generally speaking, these messages come from Joomla itself. Whenever there is a repeatable form control (those which allow you to add and remove rows) Joomla will check if every row is valid. If you have one or more rows with no content, Joomla complains. This happens at the client-side (your browser) which means we have no control over the message. Do not leave empty rows.
