My output chain:
*filter
:OUTPUT DROP [4831251:620928037]
-A OUTPUT -o lo -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -m state --state NEW,RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
-A OUTPUT -j LOG --log-prefix "Firewall DROPOUT- "

So what's left is INVALID packets.


First, thanks.
Seem that a rule that drop the INVALID packets to the trick. But... drop or reject the invalid packets?

The question. Why I see this log and why my fw want to talk with external and,
the last, why the kernel double log talk and one is inside the brackets  [ ] ?

Because those are the contents of the ICMP packet. See the RFC.

Append also with tcp, no only icmp.
P.s. Have you a rfc number?

And the last, have you also an rfc that explain why and where invalid come from?

Thanks
