Checking the manpage it reads
bitmap:port
....
ADD-ENTRY := { [proto:]port | [proto:]fromport-toport }
....
proto only needs to be specified if a service name is used, and that
name does not exist as a TCP service.
So you can type "ipset add foo udp:rlp" instead of "ipset add foo 39" -
it's only a helper to avoid writing numbers.
The manpage does not claim that protocol is stored, but then it's best to
explicitly state so in the documentation.
Best regards,
