# Create ipsets for IPv4 and IPv6
ipset create cf4 hash:net family inet
ipset create cf6 hash:net family inet6
# Create ipset for both lists, so both IP versions can use the same list name `cf`
ipset create cf list:set cf4 cf6
# Get the current Cloudflare IP lists
for ip in $(curl https://www.cloudflare.com/ips-v4); do
    ipset add cf4 "$ip";
done
for ip in $(curl https://www.cloudflare.com/ips-v6); do
    ipset add cf6 "$ip";
done

Allow 80/tcp (http) and 443/tcp (https) Access to Cloudflare IPs only

Note

These iptables rules are for a stateful firewall!
