Subject: [PATCH] iptables manpage: Update protocol list for MASQUERADE and REDIRECT
Date: Mon, 08 Apr 2013 13:30:30 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <5162AA56.70008@chello.at> (raw)
[-- Attachment #1: Type: text/plain, Size: 404 bytes --]
Hello,
this patch updates the list of protocols valid for the --to-ports option
of the MASQUERADE and REDIRECT targets.
If I read the source correctly (no C programmer), icmp is also valid.
In that case the error message for !portok is missing icmp.
What does one specify, what is mapped with --to-ports and -p icmp?
Best regards
Mart
P.S. Is it ok to base on master, or should I use stable/next?
