@ -162,6 +162,30 @@ regex (Python \fBreg\fRular \fBex\fRpression) to be added to the filter's failre
.B ignoreregex
regex which, if the log line matches, would cause Fail2Ban not consider that line. This line will be ignored even if it matches a failregex of the jail or any of its filters.
.SS Backends
Available options are listed below.
.TP
.B pyinotify
requires pyinotify (a file alteration monitor) to be installed. If pyinotify is not installed, Fail2ban will use auto.
.TP
.B gamin
requires Gamin (a file alteration monitor) to be installed. If Gamin is not installed, Fail2ban will use auto.
.TP
.B polling
uses a polling algorithm which does not require external libraries.
.TP
.B systemd
uses systemd python library to access the systemd journal. Specifying \fBlogpath\fR is not valid for this backend and instead utilises \fBjournalmatch\fR from the jails associated filter config.
.SS Actions
Each jail can be configured with only a single filter, but may have multiple actions. By default, the name of a action is the action filename, and in the case of Python actions, the ".py" file extension is stripped. Where multiple of the same action are to be used, the \fBactname\fR option can be assigned to the action to avoid duplication e.g.:
.PP
.nf
[ssh-iptables-ipset]
enabled = true
action = smtp.py[dest=chris@example.com, actname=smtp-chris]
smtp.py[dest=sally@example.com, actname=smtp-sally]
.fi
.SH "ACTION CONFIGURATION FILES (\fIaction.d/*.conf\fB)"
Action files specify which commands are executed to ban and unban an IP address.
