Summary
Aria2 Next 2.5.1 adds native engine-level BitTorrent peer blocklisting with IPv4, IPv6, and CIDR rules. Blocklists can be loaded at startup or reloaded while the engine is running.
Added
- Added
--bt-peer-blocklist=PATHfor local BTN-compatible peer rule files. - Added inbound and outbound peer filtering across tracker, DHT, PEX, and LPD peer discovery.
- Added runtime reload and clearing through
aria2.changeGlobalOption. - Added active connection enforcement after successful blocklist updates.
Changed
- Invalid blocklist reloads preserve the last successfully loaded rules.
- Temporary rejection of peers sending invalid pieces now uses explicit terminology separate from persistent blocklist rules.
