IP Ban Manager 1.1.0
IP Ban Manager 1.1.0 adds the big missing piece: managed network blocks. You can now block whole CIDR networks or IPv4 wildcard ranges from the same Configure screen, while exact IP bans still stay in Home Assistant's native ip_bans.yaml workflow.
Added
- Blocked networks for CIDR ranges like
203.0.113.0/24or IPv4 wildcard shorthand like203.0.113.*. - Allowlist precedence over managed network blocks, so trusted addresses can stay available inside a blocked subnet.
- Native exact bans stay native: single-IP bans continue to use Home Assistant's live ban manager and
ip_bans.yaml. - Notification control for Home Assistant's automatic ban/login persistent notifications.
- Diagnostic sensor coverage for managed blocked networks.
Improved
- First-run setup stores the automatic-ban notification preference correctly.
- First-run setup uses a clean Automatic ban notifications checkbox heading instead of exposing the internal option key.
- The options form can submit successfully with an empty Blocked networks field.
- Documentation now clearly explains the difference between exact Home Assistant bans and IP Ban Manager's managed network blocks.
