Hi All,
Anyone have a favorite nftables tutorial
for dummies?
I am familiar with iptables, if that helps.
This looks a bit complicated:

Many thanks,

Did you see the "Quick reference-nftables in 10 minutes" link found near
the bottom of the page you link to above? It's really worth a look:
https://wiki.nftables.org/wiki-nftables/index.php/Quick_reference-nftables_in_10_minutes
I did not see that. Me things I will be using the
heck out of it when I get the hang of it.
NFTables is different from IPTables, but for me it is different in ways
which make it easier to use despite having spent a longer time using
IPTables. YMMV.
My two big fears are:
1) if I do not manager to download enough of the
reference guides/tutorial in advance, that I will
being going back and forth with a live USB researching
things.
2) It looks like I will have to learn the syntax
of a new language. (I am familiar with several
of them. Currently, I write a lot in Raku [Perl 6].)
Thank you for the help!
