[Thomas99]

Hi,
please can anybody explain me what exactly
is the ip blacklist function and how it works?
I didn`t found some details at the directadmin
websites.
Thank you!

Hello,

The feature is to prevent brute force login attemps on your server.

DA counts the number of login attempts used, so any person with a certain number of failed logins will be completely ignored preventing them from attempting any further.
