Question about wildcards:

I can probably ban a lot more of these things using wildcards in the IP addresses, but how do I read IPs so I know which parts to ban without putting too many people at risk?


You can safely use wildcards in the last 2 segments of the IP address.

68.150.*.*, for example.

So what does that do? Just ban entire neighborhoods?

Sections of ISPs. Typically, the last two numbers are all that'll change, even for dial-up connections.
