GeoIP and Fail2Ban Filters

Configure country filters, rate limits, Fail2Ban behavior, and blocked or trusted addresses.

Use Admin > GeoIP and Fail2Ban Filters to manage geoip and fail2ban filters.

This page is a starting point for administrators: review existing records, add only the objects needed by the deployment, and keep names consistent across tenants, routing, and provisioning. The source form exposes these main blocks or fields: GeoIP allowed countries, Locate IP Address, Enable VoIP Fail2Ban, Enable web interface Fail2Ban, Fail2Ban max attempts, Notify ban activity, Notify address, Notify sender address.

Typical Workflow

1. Open the menu entry and confirm whether the record already exists.
2. Create or edit the record with a descriptive name and only the required options first.
3. Save the record and reopen it to verify the stored values.
4. Check dependent objects before deleting anything that may be used by routing, billing, provisioning, or reporting.

Documentation Example

For documentation and testing, use names prefixed with Docs Demo. Existing PBX nodes should be reused as examples; do not create additional nodes unless the deployment actually requires them.

Errors reported

The checkgeoipf2b.php script can report an error if the configuration data is incorrect, like in this case, when there is an extra space in the -- jump ACCEPT string.
