Hello,

today i've noticed that the firewall is nearly inactive on a node.

systemctl status says:
Nov 29 10:07:05 node2 pve-firewall[2534]: status update error:
ipset_restore_cmdlist: ipset v6.23: Error in line 3: The value of the
CIDR parameter of the IP address is invalid
Nov 29 10:07:14 node2 pve-firewall[2534]: status update error:
ipset_restore_cmdlist: ipset v6.23: Error in line 3: The value of the
CIDR parameter of the IP address is invalid
Nov 29 10:07:24 node2 pve-firewall[2534]: status update error:
ipset_restore_cmdlist: ipset v6.23: Error in line 3: The value of the
CIDR parameter of the IP address is invalid

So it seems that the whole firewall breaks if there is somewhere
something wrong.

I think especially for the firewall it's important to jsut skip that
line but process all other values.

How is your opinion? Any idea how to "fix" that?

Greets,
Stefan
