It can check for IPv6 addresses in the log and ban single IPv6
addresses, but I've never seen that it can escalate banning to entire
networks depending on the amount of already banned IPs in a subnet.

With the single IP ban, an attacker can just use many from a single /64
and fill up the firewall.
