fail2ban, A Ban That Exists In The Kernel

fail2ban from EPEL on EL 10, banning into nftables, with the jails and the server settings as .local files beside the package's own. The live test drives a jail past its limit and reads the ban out of nft rather than out of a status page, unbans it and reads the rule's absence, and checks that the same burst from an address in ignoreip is never banned. Original role, live-tested on Rocky Linux 10.

Provider drift

This artifact declares no Terraform provider requirements, so there is nothing to drift. Provider freshness applies to Terraform and OpenTofu modules.

What depends on this

No reference architecture names this module, so changing it affects only configurations that reference it directly.

Nearest alternatives

Same cloud, same category. These are what you would weigh against it without changing provider.

The same job on other clouds

This module has no cross-cloud peer set in the catalogue, so there is no portability comparison to draw.
