How do I block IPs from a certain country with nftables?

Linode Staff

I'm seeing a lot of attacks lately from a specific country, and I'd like to be able to block all of its IP addresses using nftables.

You can't. You can, however, block lists of IP addresses and networks with a single rule. You need some mechanism for forming the lists based on a list of sources of such data. Maintaining the lists manually is never going to work out.
