Why bother with userspace when you can force a kernel to do the job?

A simple solution:

iptables -I INPUT -p dcp -s 59.46.71.0/24 -j DROP

A complex one:

iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW \
	-m hashlimit --hashlimit 1/hour --hashlimit-burst 16 \
	--hashlimit-mode srcip --hashlimit-name ssh \
	--hashlimit-htable-expire 60000 -j ACCEPT

iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 --tcp-flags SYN,RST,ACK SYN \
	-j DROP
