16.81. cdist-type__iptables_apply(7)¶
16.81.1. NAME¶
cdist-type__iptables_apply - Apply the rules
16.81.2. DESCRIPTION¶
This cdist type deploys an init script that triggers
the configured rules and also re-applies them on
configuration. Rules are written from __iptables_rule
into the folder /etc/iptables.d/
.
It reads all rules from the base folder as rules for IPv4.
Rules in the subfolder v6/
are IPv6 rules. Rules in
the subfolder all/
are applied to both rule tables. All
files contain the arguments for a single iptables
and/or
ip6tables
command.
Rules are applied in the following order: 1. All IPv4 rules 2. All IPv6 rules 2. All rules that should be applied to both tables
The order of the rules that will be applied are definite
from the result the shell glob returns, which should be
alphabetical. If rules must be applied in a special order,
prefix them with a number like 02-some-rule
.
