+You can use 'blacklistctl dump -a' to list all the current entries
+in the database; the ones that have nfail <c>/<t> where <c>urrent
+>= <t>otal, should have an id assosiated with them; this means that
+there is a packet filter rule added for that entry. For npf, you
+can examine the packet filter dynamic rule entries using 'npfctl
+rule <rulename> list'. The number of current entries can exceed
+the total. This happens because entering packet filter rules is
+asynchronous; there could be other connection before the rule
+becomes activated.
