F2B does support permanant. Set bantime to -1 and it's "forever".
I did not know that. But I do believe there is a limit imposed by ipset regarding maximum expire time? I seem to remember it's somewhere around 3-4 weeks or so? It has to do with the value exceeding the size of a 32 bit integer on most systems.
Let me check for sure.. the max timeout is supposedly 2147483 which is about 24.8 days.
