But adding rules to discard the unwanted traffic and then do an accounting for the rest of the packets in not a good idea. I may not even know what type of packets may arrive and writing rules to discard each of unwanted packets is difficult. So, I prefer to write rules to accept only the packets that are required and then drop the other packets. I wanted to do the accounting only for packets that I accept.
Do the accounting on the rules that you write to decide what traffic to accept.
