Criminal (failed) connection attempts are not shown in the security log

Post by augur » Sat May 15, 2021 12:47 pm

Hi,

I am using Softether (Bridge) to connect two homes together. In the server log I can see connection attempts from unknown IPs/Domains but they are not listed in the security log. As I like to setup fail2ban its look strange as the guide I found here in the forum is based on entries in the security log.

Do anybody knows what is behind that? Is this perhaps a port scan only?

Regards,
Nils
