Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about WP fail2ban - Advanced Security
No. WP fail2ban is an "integration" or "bridge" between WordPress and fail2ban. It enables fail2ban to recognise WordPress-specific events by providing log entries that fail2ban can monitor and act upon. In other words, WP fail2ban itself doesn't directly ban IP addresses or manage firewall rules; you must have fail2ban installed and correctly configured on your server.
