floodlightdesign on "[Plugin: Wordfence Security] Login Lockouts Based on IP Only?"

$

Hi,

I have a question.

Are the failed login attempts correlated to the username that is used? Or is it simply based on IP?

We have a large network of users on a single corporate IP and I think the login failures are being accrued across multiple usernames on their single outbound IP.

For example, if our failed attempt level is set to 10.

If we have 5 failed attempts on "test123" and 5 failed attempts on "test456" will any further failed attempts (within 5 min) be blocked from the same IP?

Thanks,
Joe
