I noticed a while ago that the bans include a space in the IP address, making their enforcement invalid, and therefore nulled. At least this was the case with local addresses (192.168.0.250). Has this since been rectified in an update? I haven't seen anything change *rcon* related yet so I'm assuming the function is still unchanged.
