Perhaps it is useful to ask again an old question: Is the format of files produced by 'iptables-saved' and consumed by 'iptables-restore' still considered an internal, undocumented format that may change at any time? How stable is in practice that format? Because I reckon that format has been stable for at least 10 years, and I wonder whether it may be desirable to write firewall configurations directly in it, rather than using long 'iptables' command shell scripts. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
