Fail2Ban triggered on normal usage #758

Hi!

I have the admin panel running behind SWAG (nginx rproxy) which, by default, has fail2ban enabled.

I am not sure why but when I:

  1. Login
  2. Do anything e.g. create a new user or just browse the panels
  3. Logout

Fail2ban then triggers and bans my current IP for a few minutes.

I don't think its related to what I do on the page. It looks like its just the logout that triggers too many concurrent requests that trigger fail2ban.

My solution is to switch to another IP from my VPN, use the admin panel, and then switch back after the previous IP gets banned 🤷‍♂️
