hello

we are deploying the new haproxy bouncer, so far so good, ban works and offending ip get the html ban page.

the ban trigger is a nikto scan, the ban works at he haprocy http/https level, but i can rerun the nikto test, (i see tons on haproxy logs).

Should nikto also be banned ?

Thanks

Sebastian
