    Hi,

    I enabled this in my wp-config.php:
    define(‘WP_FAIL2BAN_LOG_PINGBACKS’,true);

    and now I am seeing a ton of these lines in my /var/log/messages:
    Jul 26 17:46:38 website wordpress(site.com)[21663]: Pingback requested from 107.191.52.253

    but how do I configure fail2ban to actually REJECT all traffic from that IP?
