I want to add a "blacklist" or "blocklist" that would allow me to add country codes (cn.zone for example) and also be able to add individual ip addresses.

I tried:

firewall-cmd --permanent --new-ipset=blacklist --type=hash:ip,port,net --option=family=inet --option=hashsize=4096 --option=maxelem=200000

firewall-cmd --reload

This did not give me an error until I tried to add cn.zone

firewall-cmd --permanent --ipset=blacklist --add-entries-from-file=/root/install/country-codes/ipv4/cn.zone

I got:

Error: INVALID_IPSET: ipset type '' not usable

If I can't add ip, port and net at once, could someone tell me how I could add country codes as well as single ip addresses to blacklist or blocklist?

TIA!
