Command
By default, a set of chains is defined with hidden rules. For NAT, the predefined chains
are: PREROUTING, POSTROUTING, OUTPUT. For filter, the predefined chains are:
INPUT, OUTPUT, FORWARD. For background information, see Firewall/Packet Filtering
on page 18.
Use the set command to configure a rule for a predefined chain after the add command is
used to add a rule for that chain. Or use the set command to configure a rule after the add
command is used to add a new chain and to add a new rule for the new chain (set
iptables) <filter | nat> <Tab> <Tab> shows the current chains; set iptables <filter | nat>
<chainname> shows the rules for a specific chain, and get iptables <filter | nat>
<chainname> <rule_number> shows the configuration parameters to set filtering policies.
