Get the auto-block policy (block IPs after failed login attempts).
AI agents call get_autoblock_settings to retrieve information from Synology MCP Server without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves security policy settings (auto-block configuration) from the NAS without making changes, executing operations, or causing side effects. It is a passive read operation to query existing policy state.
