I’m slightly confused on how to achieve this:

HTTP component IP filtering will block bruteforce attempts by banning after attempt limits.

Great I thought, I’ll add it into my HA.
But occationally there is invalid login message. Looking around, it seems normal. So it’s okay. Not okay, however, when somehow my router address got banned. Considering I always use external address, access on ALL devices has been banned.

So I would like to whitelist my router address, ensuring when access from home Wifi, when I need HA the most and most likely to generate false-invalid login attempts, it never gets banned.

But looking at trusted networks configuration options, I see it will not only whitelist the IP against bans, it will also remove the need to log-in via password! Way too much power is handed to this network.

Unless I’ve missed something: There doesn’t appear to be any middle ground between IP banning and a completely trusted network.

Yes, Home Wifi is a trusted network. But I don’t trust it so much I want to remove any form of authentication, even for guest users.

In another words, IP filtering whitelisting appears to be missing.
