You say "simulate", but you should be doing ssh from some remote
addresss and actually have login failures.  Maybe that's what you meant.
Make sure blocklistd is running, and then look in /var/log/messages.

Also, you can have a group for the blocklistd ruleset, with nothing
else, before the other groups.

When I run 'blacklistctl dump -a' (n9) I get a few dozen lines.
