Linux iptables: Pocket Reference

The Linux kernel’s network packet processing subsystem is called Netfilter, and iptables is the command used to configure it. Linux iptables Pocket Reference organizes the subtle netfilter syntax for quick and easy lookup, and helps administrators remember all the values they need to enter to assure strict security. The book divides the listings of all iptables options into those that are suitable for firewalling, accounting, and Network Address Translation (NAT). Our unique quick reference format is ideal for Linux administrators who already have a firewall in place, but need to be prepared for frequent changes in their environment.
