Admin Tools CLI offers a relatively large number of commands which allow you to do almost everything you can do through the graphical user interface. For simplicity's sake we have grouped them under different categories, depending on what is the target of the command.
These commands allow you to manage blocked requests, automatically banned IP addresses and the automatic IP address ban history. Their main purpose is to determine if and why an IP address has been blocked from accessing your site (banned) and why, as well as unblocking a banned IP address.
