Fail2Ban is a contrib that blocks IP addresses involved in brute force logon attempts and such. First you need to add the fail2ban plugin inside wordpress. Then see [[Fail2ban]] wiki page for initial setup of fail2ban. Then you simply need to enable the jail for wordpress by using the server-manager fail2ban page. Basically there will be 3 jails for wordpress, one soft (auth error) and one hard ( blocked user attempt to login) and one for xmlrpc attacks. | Fail2Ban is a contrib that blocks IP addresses involved in brute force logon attempts and such.
