How to block ip's permanently

1

Hi everyone, I hope you’re doing well. I’m seeing there are so many ip’s are blocked on logs. I guess fail2ban are blocking them, which means those ip’s are trying to access my server. I want to know, is there any way to block them permanently?

Login to SSH and edit file:

/etc/fail2ban/jail.conf

There is parameter bantime = 10m , change it to whatever you need.

More about f2b config here: Fail2ban - ArchWiki
