Subject: Connection Protocol in the state?
Date: Thu, 25 Sep 2008 13:35:58 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200809251335.58738.christoph.paasch@gmail.com> (raw)

Hello,

I would like to know, that if I have a filter like the one shown below 
(allowing outgoing connections of every protocol-type), does netfilter stores 
in the state of the established outgoing connection also the protocol which 
established the connection? (TCP, UDP, ....) Or does it opens the connection 
for any protocol?

iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 --ctstate NEW, RELATED, ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT


Thanks in advance
