Hello all, first up apologies if this is not the correct place for this question. If it’s not, then I’d appreciate a nudge in the correct direction.
I’m trying to configure mod_evasive so that it whitelists a number of IP ranges, in particular our private 10.*.*.* network. I’ve added that range to the DOSWhitelist but we’re still seeing blacklisting of 10.*.*.* addresses reported by
mod_evasive via email.
Here is the content of evasive.conf:
<IfModule mod_evasive20.c>
DOSHashTableSize 6400
DOSPageCount 2
DOSSiteCount 64
DOSPageInterval 1
DOSSiteInterval 1
DOSBlockingPeriod 60
DOSEmailNotify cs-unixsupportteam@xxxxxxxxx
DOSWhitelist 10.*.*.* 172.22.*.* 161.112.232.102 161.112.232.103 161.112.232.111 161.112.232.117 161.112.232.221 161.112.232.37
</IfModule>
We’re using apache 2.4.7 on Ubuntu 14.04.05. Please let me know if there is any further information which might be of help in diagnosing this.
I know that mod_evasive is active as I say because it’s reporting the blacklisting of those 10.* IPs, so what am I missing about how to configure it to whitelist these IP ranges please?
Thanks in advance for your valuable time.
