If the dimension of the set is less than the direction parameters of the set match/SET target, then that's ignored. With "--match-set setname src,dst" you instruct ipset that if the named set stores IP address and port number pairs, then get the source and destination parameters from the packets, say 192.168.1.1 as source address, TCP port 80 as destination, form the element 192.168.1.1,tcp:80 and look it up in the given set. You can't store and lookup IP address pairs, if that's what you want. Best regards, Jozsef Jozsef, Thanks much for your kindness. Seems I have to set two separated rules for my purpose. And I have the last question ,what is the maximum number of the ipset bytes counters ?
