Doc Text:
.`firewall` RHEL System Role supports variables related to `ipsets` With this update of the `firewall` RHEL System Role, you can define, modify, and delete `ipsets`. Also, you can add and remove those `ipsets` from firewall zones. Alternatively, you can use those `ipsets` when defining firewall rich rules. You can manage `ipsets` with the `firewall` RHEL System Role using the following variables: * `ipset` * `ipset_type` * `ipset_entries` * `short` * `description` * `state: present` or `state: absent` * `permanent: true` The following are some notable benefits of this enhancement: * You can reduce the complexity of the rich rules that define rules for many IP addresses. * You can add or remove IP addresses from sets as needed without modifying multiple rules. For more details, see resources in the `/usr/share/doc/rhel-system-roles/firewall/` directory.

Description Takashi Sugimura 2022-11-08 02:36:56 UTC
Description of problem:

I would like to run the command like "firewall-cmd --new-ipset=foobar --permanent --type=hash:ip" in a playbook rather than using a command module.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):

I believe it doesn't depend on the RHEL version actually, but I set RHEL 8.6 as the latest version.

Additional info:

I searched the ansible.posix.firewalld module as well but it doesn't have a feature to create the ipset.
