How to use or specify multiple IP addresses in iptables source or destination on Linux

How to add multiple sources in a single iptables command

The syntax is:
iptables -A INPUT -s ip1,ip2,ip3 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -s ip1,ip2,ip3 -j DROP
iptables -I INPUT -s ip1,ip2,ip3 -d ip2 -j DROP
To accept 92.168.1.5 and 192.168.2.6, run:
iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.5,192.168.2.6 -d 192.168.1.254 -j ACCEPT
Another example:
iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.5,192.168.2.6 -d 192.168.1.254 -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT
In this example DROP packets for port 80 for two ip address:
iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.5,192.168.2.6 -d 192.168.1.254 -p tcp --dport 80 -j DROP
In this example forward traffic to internal hosts for two source ip address:
source="139.59.1.155,23.239.7.187"
dest="104.20.187.5"
port=443
redirect="10.105.28.43:443"
iptables -A PREROUTING -s ${source} -d ${dest} -p tcp --dport ${port} -j DNAT --to-destination ${redirect}
It is possible to drop given IP address using a new chain as follows:

#!/bin/bash
_input="/root/block.ip.address.list.txt"
IPT=/sbin/iptables
$IPT -N droplist
egrep -v "^#|^$" x | while IFS= read -r ip
do
	$IPT -A droplist -i eth1 -s $ip -j LOG --log-prefix " myBad IP BlockList  "
	$IPT -A droplist -i eth1 -s $ip -j DROP
done < "$_input"
# Drop it 
$IPT -I INPUT -j droplist
$IPT -I OUTPUT -j droplist
$IPT -I FORWARD -j droplist

How to add multiple destination in a single iptables command

The syntax is:
iptables -A INPUT -d ip1,ip2,ip3 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -d ip1,ip2,ip3 -j DROP
iptables -I INPUT -d ip1,ip2,ip3 -s ip2 -j DROP
Some examples:
iptables -A INPUT -d 192.168.1.5,192.168.1.6 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -d 192.168.1.5,192.168.1.6 -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -d 192.168.1.5,192.168.1.6 -s 192.168.1.0/24 -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
To view added rule run:
iptables -t filter -L INPUT -n -v
Sample outputs:

A note about user defined chain

It is possible to create a new user-defined chain as follows:
iptables -N ALLOWED
iptables -A ALLOWED -d 127.0.0.0/8 -j RETURN
iptables -A ALLOWED -d 192.168.1.0/24 -j RETURN
iptables -A ALLOWED -d 205.54.1.5 -j RETURN
iptables -A INPUT -j ALLOWED
See iptables man page for more info:
$ man iptables
