Hello all, first up apologies if this is not the correct place for this 
question. If it's not, then I'd appreciate a nudge in the correct direction.

I'm trying to configure mod_evasive so that it whitelists a number of IP 
ranges, in particular our private 10.*.*.* network. I've added that range to 
the DOSWhitelist but we're still seeing blacklisting of 10.*.*.* addresses 
reported by mod_evasive via email.

Here is the content of evasive.conf:

<IfModule mod_evasive20.c>
        DOSHashTableSize        6400
        DOSPageCount            2
        DOSSiteCount            64
        DOSPageInterval         1
        DOSSiteInterval         1
        DOSBlockingPeriod       60
        DOSEmailNotify          cs-unixsupportt...@hud.ac.uk
        DOSWhitelist            10.*.*.* 172.22.*.* 161.112.232.102 
161.112.232.103 161.112.232.111 161.112.232.117 161.112.232.221 161.112.232.37
</IfModule>

We're using apache 2.4.7 on Ubuntu 14.04.05. Please let me know if there is any 
further information which might be of help in diagnosing this.

I know that mod_evasive is active as I say because it's reporting the 
blacklisting of those 10.* IPs, so what am I missing about how to configure it 
to whitelist these IP ranges please?

Thanks in advance for your valuable time.
