(sorry for top-posting; Gmail mobile)

iptables -- or, to be precise, netfilter -- is an in-kernel facility;
it does not have a configuration file.

You can, however, save your iptables rules using iptables-save > file,
and restore it from rc.local using iptables-restore < file. The file's
name and location is up to you.

Rgds,
