Hi, Sven. You can disable conntrack at all by removing of the module. Also you can disable conntrack only for specifyed connections with CT target (--notrack option). 2014-04-21 5:22 GMT+04:00 Sven Köhler <sven.koehler@xxxxxxxxx>: > Hi, > > consider the following example: > you have a router between two networks, and you want to cut off the > router from the outside world using some iptables rules.
