Expire banned ip's or make compatible with advban module

See https://www.drupal.org/project/auto_unban → for a possible solution.

I agree with @anybody. It should be solved in the context of the core's ban module.

Instead of closing this ticket as won't fix, I will push it to the core queue, hoping the core maintainers would advise on how to proceed.

The Ban Module was approved for removal in 📌 [Policy] Deprecate Ban module in Drupal 10 and move it to contrib for Drupal 11 Active .

This remains Postponed. The status is set according to two policies. The Remove a core extension and move it to a contributed project → and the Extensions approved for removal → policies.

The deprecation work is in 🌱 Deprecate Ban module Active and the removal work in 📌 [12.x] [Meta] Tasks to remove Ban module Postponed .

Ban will be moved to a contributed project after the Drupal 12.x branch is open.
