[asterisk-users] [OT] fail2ban and pf

2010-07-28 Thread Randy R
Hi,

Since f2b is one of the topics du jour here, I was wondering if
someone would mind telling me what these pf stats mean:

Evaluations: 964303 Packets: 12176 Bytes: 648408 States: 0

Looks like pf examined nearly a million cases from fail2ban in 24h?

thanks,

/r

80 or so blocked hosts?

964303/12176=~79.19

evaluations being more than packets looks like its going through
multiple rules to think about packets. White listing your itsp and
other traffic you know you like; before the list of banned computers
might reduce that a bit.

80-100 certainly sound about right. While the essentials (MTA,
important users, me...) are listed you're right, I should whitelist
blocks and frequent accessors I know to be ok. There is a known good
list already.

Thanks!
