Important notices Before you add a new report, we ask you kindly to acknowledge the following:

  • [x] I have read the contributing guide lines at https://github.com/opnsense/plugins/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md
  • [x] I have searched the existing issues, open and closed, and I'm convinced that mine is new.
  • [x] When the request is meant for an existing plugin, I've added its name to the title.

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. As of right now a IP, once banned by nginx rules, seems to be staged to be kept forever - even if after years its resold, under new management or now in use by a more respectful Individual.

Describe the solution you'd like There should be a way to set automatic timeouts (ex: 1d, 1w etc) for banned ips which would provide instant lockdown from a bad actor but then allow the ip to grace themselves later on.

Describe alternatives you've considered Not using the nginx banned alias for a firewall rule
