Thank you, I updated to 0.11.2-3 and will see if subnet bans stick.

That may be a function of the type of IPSET list created.  I know that with
ipset you can blacklist subnets but if it isn't a certain list:hash type it
will expand the subnet into an array of individual IP addresses.

If F2B can now handle subnets as single entries, that would be really cool.
I am using a separate system (login-shield) for that very effectively.

create blacklist hash:net family inet hashsize 4096 maxelem 65536
handles subnets, ie:
    110.153.0.0/16
    186.29.182.0/24
    45.155.126.0/24
    123.5.0.0/16
    179.43.140.0/24
    178.128.0.0/16
    89.248.165.0/24
    185.142.236.0/24
    45.141.87.0/24
    40.73.0.0/16

ipset add blacklist 110.153.0.0/16

So how do you determine the subnet to block?

If from China, I block 0/16 on *any* dubious report which implies an
unauthorized attempt.

everywhere else, I block 0/24 on the second addr in the same 0/24

40.72.0/16
45.141.87.0/24

  ...
Either way it would unban. The first way would probably rely on the ipset
rule timing out.

I do not "unban".  :)

So you're doing it all manually? If so, just maintain your own ipset list and your own firewall rules.
