Putting it in the shorewall-init won't do you any good because that only
gets called when Shorewall is being started|restarted. Remember Shorewall

you're having IP's change from time to time you're going to have to set up
the monitoring solution.
Cron is an obvious choice, but there are several other implementations.
Thanks for the tip on Ipsets. I wasn't familiar with it, but I took a look

This looks like the appropriate solution for you:
