Hi I'd like to ask if there is some way to include multiple discrete hosts/IP's in --source and --destination options of iptables.
I'm trying to write firewall rules for my server, but it has 12 IP's from different segments (and maybe it gets a few more later), and the script grows up as I have to write nearly identical rules with difference only in -s/-d IP's. What I'm looking for is a way to define some variable at the beginning of my script, like MY_IP="IP1 IP2 IP3 IP4..." and later to use is in rules (iptables -A INPUT -s $MY_IP...). But I do not know how to use it. As far as I understand it, --source/--destination accepts only single IP's or continuous IP-segments...
