you can see that keepout is only effective for the top layer, and the bottom layer can still be routed.

1. Draw the outline of the keepout on any layer. If it is on the Keep-Out layer, only the tools in Place-Keepout can be used to draw the outline.
3. Select the outline, Tools->Convert->Create Region from Selected Primitives.
4. Select the converted Region, press Ctrl+C to select a point, and copy it
5. Switch to the Keep-Out layer, Edit->Paste Special, select Paste on current layer, and click Paste. In this way, a Keepout-Region is obtained instead of a normal region.
