Can your firewall action block ip/port combinations ? AFAIK shorewall can only block ip's. If your firewall blocks ip/port combinations with fail2ban, you are right. But since shorewall can't, I'm fine with blocking the ip-address. The first offending action will block so next offending actions can't happen any more. So unblocking will occur for the first offending action.

Again, but not knowing Shorewall, I am surprised there is only one blocking chain for f2b. This means, conceptually, one jail can unblock another jail's bans which is not good if both jails are blocking the same IP for different reasons.
