Hello cPanel
When someone tries a Brute Force Attack on my server I get an email to say they've been temporarily blocked, in accordance with my cPHulk settings. I'm given the 4 choices of permanently adding the IP address to a Whitelist/Blacklist? (Blacklist of course!!!)
I've tried Googling for an answer but haven't found anything clear.

Thanks in advance.

- Block just the offending IP address e.g. 255.255.255.1
- Block the offending IP address and the adjacent ones in its immediate range e.g. 255.255.255.0 to 255.255.255.255
- Block with a /24 on the end, this seems to do the same as Option 2.
- Block with a /16 on the end, this seems to do the same as Option 2.
