# Fail2Ban configuration file # # Author: Daniel Black # # This is a included configuration file and includes the definitions for the iptables # used in all iptables based actions by default. # # The user can override the defaults in iptables-common.local # # Modified: Alexander Koeppe , Serg G. Brester # made config file IPv6 capable (see new section Init?family=inet6) [INCLUDES] after = iptables-blocktype.local iptables-common.local # iptables-blocktype.local is obsolete [Definition] # Option: actionflush # Notes.: command executed once to flush IPS, by shutdown (resp. by stop of the jail or this action) # Values: CMD # actionflush = -F f2b- [Init] # Option: chain # Notes specifies the iptables chain to which the Fail2Ban rules should be # added # Values: STRING Default: INPUT chain = INPUT # Default name of the chain # name = default # Option: port # Notes.: specifies port to monitor # Values: [ NUM | STRING ] Default: # port = ssh # Option: protocol # Notes.: internally used by config reader for interpolations. # Values: [ tcp | udp | icmp | all ] Default: tcp # protocol = tcp # Option: blocktype # Note: This is what the action does with rules. This can be any jump target # as per the iptables man page (section 8). Common values are DROP # REJECT, REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable # Values: STRING blocktype = REJECT --reject-with icmp-port-unreachable # Option: returntype # Note: This is the default rule on "actionstart". This should be RETURN # in all (blocking) actions, except REJECT in allowing actions. # Values: STRING returntype = RETURN # Option: lockingopt # Notes.: Option was introduced to iptables to prevent multiple instances from # running concurrently and causing irratic behavior. -w was introduced # in iptables 1.4.20, so might be absent on older systems # See https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/issues/1122 # Values: STRING lockingopt = -w # Option: iptables # Notes.: Actual command to be executed, including common to all calls options # Values: STRING iptables = iptables [Init?family=inet6] # Option: blocktype (ipv6) # Note: This is what the action does with rules.
