Ahh. Now I see. Thanks for the clarification. Is there a way to count the packets that get evaluated by the default policy of a chain? I know I can put a counter after all my rules, but it seems like it would be nicer to somehow integrate it into: chain IN { type filter hook input priority filter; policy drop; for example: chain IN { type filter hook input priority filter; policy counter drop; ...but the above fails. Thanks for any help! -m
