=========================
iptables config for support fail2ban

=========================

start fail2ban :

/etc/init.d/fail2ban start

or

service fail2ban start

service start when Linux boot :

chkconfig fail2ban on

note : fail2ban blocked public ip user ftp when login fails 5 time  and block time 600 seconds.
with fail2ban automatic add rule on iptables below :
iptables -N fail2ban-VSFTPD

 

โค๊ด: [Select]

iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 21 -j fail2ban-VSFTPD
when user ftp login fails 5 time  . fail2ban add rule below:

โค๊ด: [Select]

iptables -t filter -I fail2ban-VSFTPD 1 -s public_ip_user_ftp_fails -j DROP
Good Luck. fail2ban can apply to ssh , apache and other services with plus Security policy blocked hacker login fails.
