I put an asterisk.conf as: root@fqdn_short:/etc/fail2ban/jail.d# root@fqdn_short:/etc/fail2ban/jail.d# cat asterisk.conf
[asterisk-iptables] # if more than 4 attempts are made within 6 hours, ban for 24 hours enabled = true filter = asterisk action = iptables-allports[name=ASTERISK, protocol=all] sendmail[name=ASTERISK, dest=thufir@fqdn_long, sender=fail2ban@local.local] logpath = /var/log/asterisk/messages maxretry = 4 findtime = 21600 bantime = 86400 root@fqdn_short:/etc/fail2ban/jail.d# this is a reasonable configuration? How do I know this is running? I stopped and then started with: systemctl start fail2ban according to: systemctl status fail2ban.service it looks to be running.
