ipset-translate — translation tool to migrate from ipset to nftables

       The nftables framework has been written by the Netfilter Project (https://www.netfilter.org).

       This manual page was written by Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>.

       This tool was funded through the NGI0 PET Fund, a fund established by NLnet with financial  support  from
       the  European  Commission's  Next  Generation  Internet  programme,  under the aegis of DG Communications
       Networks, Content and Technology under grant agreement No 825310.

       This tool allows system administrators to translate a given IP sets file to nftables(8).

       The only available command is:

       • ipset-translate restore < file.ipt

       Basic operation examples.

       Single command translation, assuming the original file:

       create test1 hash:ip,port family inet counters timeout 300 hashsize 1024 maxelem 65536 bucketsize 12 initval 0xb5c4be5d
       add test1 1.1.1.1,udp:20
       add test1 1.1.1.1,21
       create test2 hash:ip,port family inet hashsize 1024 maxelem 65536 bucketsize 12 initval 0xb5c4be5d

       which results in the following translation:

       root@machine:~# ipset-translate restore < file.ipt
       add set inet global test1 { type ipv4_addr . inet_proto . inet_service; counter; timeout 300s; size 65536; }
       add element inet global test1 { 1.1.1.1 . udp . 20 }
       add element inet global test1 { 1.1.1.1 . tcp . 21 }
       add set inet global test2 { type ipv4_addr . inet_proto . inet_service; size 65536; }

       A few IP sets options may be not supported because they are not yet implemented in nftables(8).

       Contrary to nftables(8), IP sets are not attached to a specific table.  The translation  utility  assumes
       that  sets  are  created in a table whose name is global and family is inet. You might want to update the
       resulting translation to use a different table name and family for your sets.

nft(8), ipset(8)

       The  ipset-translate  tool  reads  an  IP  sets  file  in  the  syntax  produced by ipset(8) save. No set
       modifications occur, this tool is a text converter.
