Is RSFirewall too easily spoofed? The firewall built into WebHostManager and every other security appliance I've used doesnt seem to have a problem with this.
I mean, at the very least, could there not be some mechanism where we could tell RS Firewall to not allow someone to the login page if it doesnt appear as though they're coming from a valid IP address conform to IPv4 and/or IPv6?

This brings me to my second point: Assuming there isn't already support for IPv6 blocking, when do you plan on rolling this out?

The largest roll outs of IPv6 partitions are happening in countries that many of these hacking attempts are coming from. Its going to very rapidly become a problem I suspect.

Other than the above, this software is amazing and I wish we had discovered it sooner!

Sincerely,
D
