Subject: Adding a rule with invalid interface name
Date: Thu, 16 Sep 2004 18:04:24 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <41498850.9000000@rediffmail.com> (raw)
iptables lets me add a rule with invalid interface name :
# iptables -A FORWARD -i abc -o xyz -j ACCEPT
This is the actual command. "abc" & "xyz" are not the obfuscated
versions of some real interface names.
# iptables -L
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
ACCEPT all -- anywhere anywhere
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target prot opt source destination
iptables version is 1.2.7a running on a stock RedHat 9 kernel (2.4.20-6)
Regards,
Swapnil.
