anti-spoofing rule placement question

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The iptables firewalls I've seen put anti-spoofing rules in the
filter/INPUT and filter/FORWARD chains.  The documentation that this
is where filtering is best done.

However, if you put them in one of the PREROUTING chains, you would
not have to duplicate the N calls to them (one call per interface
usually), since that is common to the path to INPUT and FORWARD.  Is
there a problem in doing that (e.g. put them in the nat/PREROUTING
chain)?
