I had a thread in April (https://www.mail-archive.com/fail2ban-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg02953.html) about using my own variable and then incorporating it into the ignoreip line as I could then maintain it programmatically for my distro, but it seems not to be working.

In my jail.local I have:

[DEFAULT]
lan_subnets = 172.172.0.0/22
ignoreip = %(lan_subnets)s 127.0.0.1/8 10.8.0.0/24 172.18.0.0/15 67.18.3.134 173.255.233.57 159.203.59.228 209.90.117.194

Have I got the syntax right? Also, how can I check it it is loading correctly as I see nothing when I start f2b? Or do I need to start f2b in some sort of debug mode or increase logging verbosity?

I think ignoreip has to specified *explicitly* in each jail in which you want to use it. Perhaps ignoreip = 'undefined' overrides the setting in [DEFAULT]? This is not logical (to me) but you can workaround it thus:

[DEFAULT]
lan_subnets = 172.172.0.0/22
my_ignoreip = %(lan_subnets)s 127.0.0.1/8 10.8.0.0/24 172.18.0.0/15 67.18.3.134 173.255.233.57 159.203.59.228 209.90.117.194

[myjail]
ignoreip = $(my_ignoreip)%

If you still have problems, study (and maybe post to) https://github.com/fail2ban/fail2ban/issues/1464.

When posting, do always say which version of f2b you are using, things have changed a lot between versions in recent years.
