Hi All.
I have a problem that is how many rules were supported iptables.
The program which I maintain and repair generated iptables rules =
automatically.
Now, I encounter this problem.
Source and destination IP address is written range by user.( ex, =
1.1.1.1~1.1.1.10 ) then our program generated 10 IP address(1.1.1.1, =
1.1.1.2, 1.1.1.3, =E2=80=A6 , 1.1.1.10) and make 10 iptables rules.
Unfortunately, user wrote iptables rules like this, 10,000 rules is =
generated.
=E3=80=80=E2=80=9C iptalbes =E2=80=93A FORWARD =E2=80=93p tcp =E2=80=93s =
1.1.1.1~1.1.1.100 =E2=80=93d 2.2.2.1~2.2.2.100 =E2=80=93j =
QUEUE=E2=80=9D.
Do 10,000 rules operate safely?? Or Some rules don=E2=80=99t operate =
normally??
If some rules don=E2=80=99t operate normally, how many rules iptables =
does support??
