Double rules for using NETFLOW?

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

 



Hi All,
I am using ipt_NETFLOW 1.7 on my RHEL 6 (2.6.32) box. Now if I want to accept packet destined for some port and at the same time I want it to be accounted also, then I have to use the following rules:

iptables -A INPUT --dport <portnum> -j NETFLOW
iptables -A INPUT --dport <portnum> -j ACCEPT

This makes that every packet that I accept should have two rules (one for accepting and one for accounting). Don't you people think that it will increase the number of rules a packet has to traverse? Or is my understanding wrong?

Regards,
Seenu.
