Is fail2ban recommended with CWP even with the CSF/LFP firewall?   

Is there configuration support for fail2ban in the web panel?

Sandeep

you can install it and manually create any rules

MarkE

I understand I can.

I'm trying to understand if it is essential or valuable given a) CWP did not choose to manage it, and b) CWP does use CSF/LSF firewall.

you can make custom rules for csf/lfd maybe that is better option if you want to use the same script

I'm interested in knowing of there are any gaps with just csf/lfd that suggest I should also use fail2ban.  I'm happy to learn if csf/lfd is sufficient.
