How can I do it? What I do is creating chains for the rules I want to report. So I do: iptables -N TCPCHAIN iptables -A TCPCHAIN -j RETURN iptables -A FORWARD -p tcp -j TCPCHAIN I think you can see the trick. Then doing a iptables -L TCPCHAIN -xvn you have the rules. If you want a system to make reports you can have a look at our bastion-firewall-stats addon. It's GPL, and you can have the sources at our website. It creates rrdtool graphics in a web page with the data gathered from the chains using a libipc based daemon.
