Subject: [PATCH 0/3] iptables-edit: tool to apply iptables rules to iptables-save'ed statefiles
Date: Sat, 20 Oct 2007 02:56:49 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <47195251.6050805@endian.com> (raw)
Hi guys
This patchset introduces a new tool called iptables-edit, which allows
to apply iptables rules on an iptables-save'd state file instead of
applying it to the kernel.
This allows to minimize the outage of firewall script which rebuild the
entire ruleset from scratch when something changed within it's
configuration.
It uses functionality from iptables-save and iptables-restore, therefore
the patchset reorganizes those functionality in separate files.
The patchset is against iptables 1.3.8.
Please advice me if i should port it to another version or subversion
repository.
I will start with man page and ip6tables-edit as well if the patch makes
sense to you.
Please let me know what you think
Regards,
peter
