The scanner rejects IPv4-Mapped IPv6 addresses, eg. # cat test #!/usr/sbin/nft -f flush ruleset table inet global { set blackhole_ipv6 { type ipv6_addr flags interval elements = { ::ffff:0.0.0.0/96 } } } # nft -f test test:8:30-38: Error: syntax error, unexpected string, expecting comma or '}' elements = { ::ffff:0.0.0.0/96 } ^^^^^^^^^^ According to RFC4291, Sect. 2.5.5.2. IPv4-Mapped IPv6 Address: | 80 bits | 16 | 32 bits | +--------------------------------------+--------------------------+ |0000..............................0000|FFFF| IPv4 address | +--------------------------------------+----+---------------------+ Update scanner bits to parse this.
