Add the correct LOG rule to netfilter rules

iptables -N LOG_DROP 
iptables -A LOG_DROP -j 
LOG --log-tcp-options --log-ip-options --log-prefix '[IPTABLES DROP] : '

iptables -A LOG_DROP -j DROP

When you drop packets, you should replace DROP by LOG_DROP for example :

iptables -A INPUT -j LOG_DROP


To specify more chains, just ajust the log-prefix option. In the previous 
example DROP chain is defined.

If you use --log-prefix '[IPTABLES ACCEPT] : ' all the packets logs by this 
rule will be display in ACCEPT chain.
