I think IP addresses never make it to dnsmasq, they stay at clients. So dnsmasq cannot add them anywhere into tables. Domain name queries go trough dnsmasq so it can manage them. Is there something I am missing?

I think IP-only tables should be managed by something else than dnsmasq. I expect different tools can add into common table, but never tried myself.

Yes, it's OpenWrt.  I'm on master, recently compiled.  In general nftset works fine, it just only seems to work for hostnames and not for IP addresses:

nftset=/cooper.logs.roku.com/4#inet#fw4#adb4
nftset=/99.83.154.118/4#inet#fw4#adb4

The former works.  The latter never appears in the ruleset.

It would be handy if IP addresses could work too.  This would make it, for example, so that DoH blocklists (IP only) could work alongside adblock block lists (hostnames).

Hi Kurt,

Could it be that your dnsmasq is too old?   Can I assume OpenWrt?  Dnsmasq is currently at 2.86 on the release branch 22.03, and is missing the nftset stuff, but SNAPSHOT is at 2.89, so it should work there...

Is there a way to have dnsmasq support the use of IP addresses in nftset
directives?  I cannot get it to work, though I can't see any reason why
it shouldn't.

Thanks.
