blocklistctl
is a program used to display the state of
blocklistd(8)
The following options are available:
-a
- Show all database entries, by default it shows only the embryonic
ones.
-b
- Show only the blocked entries.
-d
- Increase debugging level.
-n
- Don't display a header.
-r
- Show the remaining blocked time instead of the last activity time.
-w
- Normally the width of addresses is good for IPv4, the
-w
flag, makes the display wide enough for IPv6
addresses.
Sometimes the reported number of failed attempts can exceed the number of
attempts that blocklistd(8)
is configured to block. This can happen either because the rule has been
removed manually, or because there were more attempts in flight while the rule
block was being added. This condition is normal; in that case
blocklistd(8) will first
attempt to remove the existing rule, and then it will re-add it to make sure
that there is only one rule active.
blocklistctl
first appeared in NetBSD
7. FreeBSD support for
blocklistctl
was implemented in
FreeBSD 11.
