Where is the list of banned IPs

Post by tmar89 »

I have a user that kept entering his password wrong and now his IP is banned. Auto Ban is 5 times and Temp ban is 60 min. How do I un-ban his IP and find the rest of the IPs that have been banned?

The 'temp' ban will be removed after the 60 minutes.

Per the manual on page 175...
If an address is denied access on this list it is considered permanently banned. There is
actually a second temporary “denied” list maintained by the software that is not visible here.
If you choose to auto-ban an address after a specific number of failed login attempts, that
address will be added to one of these lists. If you select the option to release the ban after a
number of minutes, the banned IP address is added to the internal temporary list instead of
the one visible and editable here.
Temporarily banned IP addresses may be identified with red text on the Connections page in
