Hi list, I noticed that ebtables command line utility has not a "-S (--list-rules)" argument which is widely adopted by the other command line tools (arptables, iptables).

I think it can be useful for many reasons, so I'm here to ask whether it was deliberately omitted or not and why.


Thanks.
Regards,

Hi Nicola,

Ebtables' UI is different in so many aspects, I find it rather
interesting that there are shared options with iptables. ;)

In iptables.git, ebtables-nft already has support for -S option
(although undocumented), so next release will enable this feature for
you (unless you stick to ebtables-legacy).

Cheers, Phil

Hello Phil, many thanks for your answer.

I believe I will switch to ebtables-save.


Thanks!
