I would have to defer to others about that. My experience is limited to
maintaining the package for Fedora/EPEL and setting up a SSH jail as that
is the only port I leave open to the internet.

If I had to guess, I would think filter.d contains rules for how to scrape
log files to find failed connection attempts.
