Where do we put IPtable rules should be added?

Save iptables

Can we please get info on how to save iptables so they are restored on reboot? Thanks --Shibz 09:30, 23 Jan 2007 (CET)


I think dd-wrt stores the config using nvram, which doesn't seem to store formats for custom iptables commands.

  1. nvram get forward_spec

SSH:on:both:22>10.1.99.134:22 HTTP:on:both:8080>10.1.99.134:80 FTP:on:both:21>10.1.99.134:21 VM:on:both:902>10.1.99.134:902 From this, it seems like you are better off doing a startup script with either rc_startup or by the http interface. The http interface by accessing Administration -> Commands The rc_startup method is also available:

  1. nvram get rc_startup

<existing commands>

  1. nvram set rc_startup="

<existing commands>

<command 1>
<command 2>
...
<command n>
"

There is a nice example iptables script for a different purpose here: [1] --Urule99 04:17, 1 August 2007 (CEST)
