Hi All,
Is it possible for me to place rules related to accounting after
filter table in the INPUT chain so that the accounting takes place only
on the packets I am accepting in my box?
According to the nf-packet-flow diagram I have been referring too, the
INPUT chain on the filter table is the place to count packets destined
only for the box.
If that is not correct, I hope someone says so, because it would explain
some confusion I have been having lately...
You are correct in saying that the packets destined for my box come in
INPUT chain. But, I will have the rules to filter out unwanted stuff in
that table and do the accounting only for those packets which pass
through these rules and reach upper layer.
