Why is this bot still able to connect despite firewall rules in place?

I get console spammed 1-2x an hour from (what I assume is) a port scanner bot at 51.15.34.47:61000. I have UFW set up so that rule 2 & 3 is <server port> DENY 51.15.34.0/24 and Anywhere REJECT 51.15.34.0/24. Is there some way that the bot is still able to connect? Is there a better way to block traffic from that IP range? VPS is hosted on OCI.
uh
maybe
like
dont use offline mode?
@Dominic dont use offline mode?

Bots scan online servers too yk
its a Bot, it scans everything 😭
They are annoying to have popping up in console
im assuming "connect" means join
some bots are able to physically join the server
that happens if op is using offline
Some bots are premium accounts too, but those are pretty rare
thats indeed a scanner tho, i have it blocked in my own honeypot

and I can confirm its not one of those premium acc bots, otherwise it would've connected
fair
@Dominic im assuming "connect" means join
I took connect as 'able to see the server'.

I don't use offline mode. This is a velocity network with whitelist. No cracked clients here!
I know that the bot isn't connecting fully into the network but I'd like to not have it pinging the server constantly. Just wondering how to block it because UFW seems to not be doing anything to keep it out.

Yeah, it doesn't actually get past the initial connection attempt. The logs look like this: [03:18:05 ERROR]: [initial connection] /51.15.34.47:61000: read timed out
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
It’s just a scanner, it can do whatever.
@Connecticut Warbler Is the mc server in docker
Roseate SpoonbillOP
yes, in a pterodactyl pane. It was happening before the migration over to ptero but I had the UFW rules so that the server port was open before the deny for the bot IP - I didn't realize UFW was rank ordered
Is there a recommended firewall that works better with docker?

Iptables
Please fuck, no.

Works better than ufw, ig firewalld is a good option aswell
