this rules are after dropping invalid and before logging

# Enable forwarding to IPv6-Tunnel interface
-A FORWARD -i br0 -o sit1 -j ACCEPT
# Enable established, related packets back through
-I FORWARD -i sit1 -o br0 -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT

so I have the problem, that I cannot really know, why these packets were 
logged ...
