lookup takes place only during 'restart' or 'reload' action, 'start'
and 'refresh' actions are using an auto-generated backup instead.
* update the readme

## Prerequisites
* [OpenWrt](https://openwrt.org), tested with the stable release series (19.07.x) and with the latest rolling snapshot releases. On turris devices it has been successfully tested with TurrisOS 5.2.x
<b>Please note:</b>Older OpenWrt releases like 18.06.x or 17.01.x are _not_ supported!
* [OpenWrt](https://openwrt.org), tested with the stable release series (21.02.x) and with the latest rolling snapshot releases. On turris devices it has been successfully tested with TurrisOS 5.2.x
<b>Please note:</b>Ancient OpenWrt releases like 18.06.x or 17.01.x are _not_ supported!
<b>Please note:</b> Devices with less than 128 MByte RAM are _not_ supported!
<b>Please note:</b> If you're updating from former banIP 0.3x please manually remove your config (/etc/config/banip) before you start!
* A download utility with SSL support: 'wget', 'uclient-fetch' with one of the 'libustream-*' ssl libraries, 'aria2c' or 'curl' is required
* A certificate store like 'ca-bundle', as banIP checks the validity of the SSL certificates of all download sites by default
* Optional E-Mail notification support: for E-Mail notifications you need to install the additional 'msmtp' package
* Optional E-Mail notification support: for E-Mail notifications you need to install and setup the additional 'msmtp' package
## Installation & Usage
* Update your local opkg repository (_opkg update_)

**generate an IPSet report:**
**black-/whitelist handling:**
banIP supports a local black & whitelist (IPv4, IPv6, CIDR notation or domain names), located by default in /etc/banip/banip.whitelist and /etc/banip/banip.blacklist.
Unsuccessful LuCI logins, suspicious nginx request or ssh login attempts via 'dropbear'/'sshd' could be tracked and automatically added to the local blacklist (see the 'ban_autoblacklist' option). Furthermore the uplink subnet could be automatically added to local whitelist (see 'ban_autowhitelist' option). The list behaviour could be further tweaked with different timeout and counter options (see the config options section above).
Last but not least, both lists also accept domain names as input to allow IP filtering based on these names. The corresponding IPs (IPv4 & IPv6) will be resolved in a detached background process and added to the IPsets. The detached name lookup takes place only during 'restart' or 'reload' action, 'start' and 'refresh' actions are using an auto-generated backup instead.
