 * Hello,
 * My firewall log is full of IP’s trying to do obvious malicious things that correctly
   get rated high and critical by ninjafirewall. However, is there a way to automatically
   block IP’s that try to execute certain actions (either by request regex or log
   level?)
 * Thanks

 * Hi,
 * There is no option to automatically ban IPs.
    However, if you want to block specific
   requests, you can add your own code to the [.htninja user configuration file](http://ninjafirewall.com/wordpress/htninja/)
   which, for instance, could write the IP to the server logs using the PHP openlog()
   and syslog() functions.
