man setterm:

       -msg [on|off] (virtual consoles only)
              Enables or disables the sending of kernel printk()
              messages to the console.

Is it possible to get rid of the iptables messages on the console as well,
with the above tweak, or is it specifically and only for the kernel?

	iptables is in the kernel.

	AFAIK, it's either via syslog or via printk.  If you've shut them both
down, it should be gone.

It was thinking it is logged through klogd, and can be suppressed by
starting klogd with the e.g. "-c 3" option.
Change the bootoption of klogd in: /etc/sysconfig/syslog :

  KLOGD_OPTIONS="-x -c 3"

Well, at least AFAIK.
