The '*actionunban*' simply deletes the rule to remove the block.
## Final thoughts
Well, that's it. Fail2Ban will now monitor SSH intrusion attempts and will also
search the logs for any systems that try to connect to blocked ports looking for
an entry vector into your system. It will then block those systems
automatically for whatever timeframe you specify and then remove that block. So
you don't have to maintain IP block/allow lists manually anymore!
I hope this helps you in dealing with your server getting bombarded by
irritating scanning-bots. As always, check out my block at
