# Option: failregex
# Notes.: regex to match the password failures messages in the logfile. The
#          host must be matched by a group named "host". The tag "<HOST>" can
#          be used for standard IP/hostname matching and is only an alias for
#          (?:::f{4,6}:)?(?P<host>[\w\-.^_]+)
# Values: TEXT
#
failregex = fail2ban.actions:\s+WARNING\s+\[(?:.*)\]\s+Ban\s+<HOST>

# Option:  ignoreregex
# Notes.:  regex to ignore. If this regex matches, the line is ignored.
# Values:  TEXT
#
ignoreregex = fail2ban.actions:\s+WARNING\s+\[fail2ban\]\s+Ban\s+<HOST>
