[http://netfilter.org/projects/nftables/ nftables] is a netfilter project that aims to replace the existing ip-, ip6-, arp-, and ebtables framework. It provides a new packet filtering framework, a new user-space utility (nft), and a compatibility layer for ip- and ip6tables. It uses the existing hooks, connection tracking system, user-space queueing component, and logging subsystem of netfilter.<br />
<br />
The first release is available in Linux 3.13, which is currently in the ''testing'' repository ({{Pkg|linux}}), and nftables (the user-space components) is available in the ''community-testing'' repository ({{Pkg|nftables}}), and on the [[AUR]] in package {{AUR|nftables-git}}.<br />
<br />
{{Expansion|nftables is an entirely new utility, and lacks sufficient documentation on this wiki, as well as elsewhere.}}<br />
<br />
==Overview==<br />
nftables consists of three main components: a kernel implementation, the libnl netlink communication and the nftables user-space front-end. The kernel provides a netlink configuration interface, as well as run-time rule-set evaluation using a small classification language interpreter. libnl contains the low-level functions for communicating with the kernel; the nftables front-end is what the user interacts with.<br />
<br />
==nft==<br />
nftables' user-space utility {{ic|nft}} now performs most of the rule-set evaluation before handing rule-sets to the kernel. Because of this, nftables provides no default tables or chains; although, a user can emulate an iptables-like setup.<br />
<br />
It works in a fashion similar to ifconfig or iproute2. The commands are a long, structured sequence rather than using argument switches like in iptables. For example:<br />
nft add rule ip6 filter input ip saddr ::1 accept<br />
{{ic|add}} is the command. {{ic|rule}} is a subcommand of {{ic|add}}. {{ic|ip6}} is an argument of {{ic|rule}}, telling it to use the ip6 family. {{ic|filter}} and {{ic|input}} are arguments of {{ic|rule}} specifying the table and chain to use, respectively. The rest that follows is a rule definition, which includes matches ({{ic|ip}}), their parameters ({{ic|saddr}}), parameter arguments ({{ic|::1}}), and jumps ({{ic|accept}}).<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of the commands available in nft:<br />
<nowiki><br />
list<br />
tables [family]<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name><br />
<br />
add<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name> [chain definitions]<br />
rule [family] <table> <chain> <rule definition><br />
<br />
table [family] <name> (shortcut for `add table`)<br />
<br />
insert<br />
rule [family] <table> <chain> <rule definition><br />
<br />
delete<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name><br />
rule [family] <table> <handle><br />
<br />
flush<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name></nowiki><br />
{{ic|family}} is optional, but it will default to {{ic|ip}}.<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
The purpose of tables is to hold chains. Unlike tables in iptables, there are no built-in tables in nftables. Tables can have one of four families specified, which unifies the various iptables utilities into one:<br />
*ip (iptables)<br />
*ip6 (ip6tables)<br />
*arp (arptables)<br />
*bridge (ebtables)<br />
{{ic|ip}} is the default family.<br />
A fifth family is scheduled for Linux 3.15 that allows for the unification of the ip and ip6 families to make defining rules for both easier.<br />
<br />
===Listing===<br />
You can list the current tables in a family with the {{ic|nft list}} command.<br />
# nft list tables<br />
# nft list tables ip6<br />
<br />
You can list a full table definition by specifying a table name:<br />
# nft list table foo<br />
# nft list table ip6 foo<br />
<br />
===Creation===<br />
Tables can be added via two commands&#8202;&mdash;&#8202;one just being a shortcut for the other. Here is an example of how to add an ip table called foo and an ip6 table called foo:<br />
# nft add table foo<br />
# nft table ip6 foo<br />
You can have two tables with the same name as long as they are in different families.<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Tables can only be deleted if there are no chains in them.<br />
# nft delete table foo<br />
# nft delete table ip6 foo<br />
<br />
==Chains==<br />
The purpose of chains is to hold rules. Unlike chains in iptables, there are no built-in chains in nftables. This means that if no chain uses any types or hooks in the netfilter framework, packets that would flow through those chains will not be touched by nftables, unlike iptables.<br />
<br />
===Listing===<br />
You can list the current chains in a chain with the {{ic|nft list}} command, using the same method as listing a table. You can also list rules from an individual chain.<br />
# nft list chain foo bar<br />
# nft list chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands will list the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
===Creation===<br />
Chains can be added when a table is created in a file definition or one at time via the {{ic|nfc add chain}} command.<br />
# nft add chain foo bar<br />
# nft add chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands will add a chain called {{ic|bar}} to the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
====Properties====<br />
Because nftables has no built-in chains, it allows chains to access certain features of the netfilter framework.<br />
# nft add chain filter input { type filter hook input priority 0; }<br />
This command tells nftables to add a chain called {{ic|input}} to the {{ic|filter}} table and defines its type, hook, and priority. These properties essentially replace the built-in tables and chains in iptables.<br />
<br />
=====Types=====<br />
There are three types a chain can have and they correspond to the tables used in iptables:<br />
*filter<br />
*nat<br />
*route (mangle)<br />
<br />
=====Hooks=====<br />
There are five hooks a chain can use and they correspond to the chains used in iptables:<br />
*input<br />
*output<br />
*forward<br />
*prerouting<br />
*postrouting<br />
<br />
=====Priorities=====<br />
{{Note|Priorities do not currently appear to have any effect on which chain sees packets first.}}<br />
{{Note|Since the priority seems to be an unsigned integer, negative priorities will be converted into very high priorities.}}<br />
Priorities tell nftables which chains packets should pass through first. They are integers, and the higher the integer, the higher the priority.<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Chains can only be deleted if there are no rules in them.<br />
# nft delete chain foo bar<br />
# nft delete chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands delete the {{ic|bar}} chains from the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
==Rules==<br />
The purpose of rules is to identify packets (match) and carry out tasks (jump). Like in iptables, there are various matches and jumps available, though not all of them are feature-complete in nftables.<br />
<br />
===Listing===<br />
You can list the current rules in a table with the {{ic|nft list}} command, using the same method as listing a table. You can also list rules from an individual chain.<br />
# nft list chain foo bar<br />
# nft list chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands will list the rules in the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
===Creation===<br />
Rules can be added when a table is created in a file definition or one at time via the {{ic|nfc add rule}} command.<br />
# nft add rule foo bar ip saddr 127.0.0.1 accept<br />
# nft add rule ip6 foo bar ip saddr ::1 accept<br />
These commands will add a rule to the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables that matches an {{ic|ip}} packet when its {{ic|saddr}} (source address) is 127.0.0.1 (IPv4) or ::1 (IPv6) and accepts those packets.<br />
<br />
====Matches====<br />
There are various matches available in nftables and, for the most part, coincide with their iptables counterparts. The most noticeable difference is that there are no generic or implicit matches anymore. A generic match was one that was always available, such as {{ic|--protocol}} or {{ic|--source}}. Implicit matches were protocol-specific, such as {{ic|--sport}} when a packet was determined to be TCP.<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of the matches available:<br />
*meta (meta properties, e.g. interfaces)<br />
*icmp (ICMP protocol)<br />
*icmpv6 (ICMPv6 protocol)<br />
*ip (IP protocol)<br />
*ip6 (IPv6 protocol)<br />
*tcp (TCP protocol)<br />
*udp (UDP protocol)<br />
*sctp (SCTP protocol)<br />
*ct (connection tracking)<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of match arguments:<br />
<nowiki><br />
meta:<br />
oif <output interface INDEX><br />
iif <input interface INDEX><br />
oifname <output interface NAME><br />
iifname <input interface NAME><br />
<br />
(oif and iif accept string arguments and are converted to interface indexes)<br />
(oifname and iifname are more dynamic, but slower because of string matching)<br />
<br />
icmp:<br />
type <icmp type><br />
<br />
icmpv6:<br />
type <icmpv6 type><br />
<br />
ip:<br />
protocol <protocol><br />
daddr <destination address><br />
saddr <source address><br />
<br />
ip6:<br />
daddr <destination address><br />
saddr <source address><br />
<br />
tcp:<br />
dport <destination port><br />
sport <source port><br />
<br />
udp:<br />
dport <destination port><br />
sport <source port><br />
<br />
sctp:<br />
dport <destination port><br />
sport <source port><br />
<br />
ct:<br />
state <new | established | related | invalid></nowiki><br />
<br />
====Jumps====<br />
Jumps work the same as they do in iptables, except multiple jumps can now be used in one rule.<br />
# nft add rule filter input tcp dport 22 log accept<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of jumps:<br />
*accept (accept a packet)<br />
*reject (reject a packet)<br />
*drop (drop a packet)<br />
*snat (perform source NAT on a packet)<br />
*dnat (perform destination NAT on a packet)<br />
*log (log a packet)<br />
*counter (keep a counter on a packet; counters are optional in nftables)<br />
<br />
===Insertion===<br />
Rules can be prepended to chains with the {{ic|nft insert rule}} command.<br />
# nft insert rule filter input ct state established,related accept<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Individual rules can only be deleted by their handles. The {{ic|nft --handle list}} command must be used to determine rule handles. Note the {{ic|--handle}} switch, which tells {{ic|nft}} to list handles in its output.<br />
<br />
The following determines the handle for a rule and then deletes it. The {{ic|--number}} argument is useful for viewing some numeric output, like unresolved IP addresses.<br />
{{hc|# sudo nft --handle --numeric list chain filter input|2=<br />
<nowiki><br />
table ip filter {<br />
chain input {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ip saddr 127.0.0.1 accept # handle 10<br />
}<br />
}<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
# nft delete rule filter input handle 10<br />
<br />
All the chains in a table can be flushed with the {{ic|nft flush table}} command. Individual chains can be flushed using either the {{ic|nft flush chain}} or {{ic|nft delete rule}} commands.<br />
# nft flush table foo<br />
# nft flush chain foo bar<br />
# nft delete rule ip6 foo bar<br />
The first command flushes all of the chains in the ip {{ic|foo}} table. The second flushes the {{ic|bar}} chain in the ip {{ic|foo}} table. The third deletes all of the rules in {{ic|bar}} chain in the ip6 {{ic|foo}} table.<br />
<br />
==File Definitions==<br />
{{Warning|The {{ic|nft -f}} command, despite what the [http://people.netfilter.org/wiki-nftables/index.php/Atomic_rule_replacement netfilter wiki] says, is '''NOT''' atomic. This means you will have a small window between deleting the old tables and when the new ruleset is loaded where all packets will be accepted.}}<br />
{{Note|You must delete all conflicting tables before using the {{ic|nft -f}} command.}}<br />
File definitions can be used by the {{ic|nft -f}} command, which acts like the {{ic|iptables-restore}} command.<br />
{{hc|/etc/nftables/filter.rules|2=<br />
<nowiki><br />
table ip filter {<br />
chain input {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ct state established,related accept<br />
ip saddr 127.0.0.1 accept<br />
tcp dport 22 log accept<br />
reject<br />
}<br />
}<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
<br />
==Getting Started==<br />
To get an [[iptables]]-like chain set up, you will first need to use the provided IPv4 filter file:<br />
<br />
# nft -f /etc/nftables/ipv4-filter<br />
<br />
To list the resulting chain:<br />
<br />
# nft list table filter<br />
<br />
Drop output to a destination:<br />
<br />
# nft add rule ip filter output ip daddr 1.2.3.4 drop<br />
<br />
Drop packets destined for local port 80:<br />
<br />
# nft add rule ip filter input tcp dport 80 drop<br />
<br />
Delete all rules in a chain:<br />
<br />
# nft delete rule filter output<br />
<br />
==Samples==<br />
===Simple IP/IPv6 Firewall===<br />
{{hc|firewall.rules|2=<br />
<nowiki><br />

<br />
table firewall {<br />

}<br />
}<br />
<br />

}<br />
}<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
<br />
===Limit rate and tcp flags IP/IPv6 Firewall===<br />
{{hc|firewall.2.rules|2=<br />
<nowiki><br />
table firewall {<br />
chain incoming {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
<br />
# bad tcp -> avoid network scanning:<br />

}<br />
<br />

<br />
# loopback interface<br />
iifname lo accept<br />
<br />
# avoid brute force on ssh:<br />
tcp dport {ssh} limit rate 15/minute accept<br />
<br />
reject<br />
}<br />
}<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
<br />
===Priority-based Atomic Fix===<br />
If priorities ever actually take effect, this may be a workaround for {{ic|nft -f}}'s lack of true atomicness (being able to replace all the current rules with new ones in one go):<br />
{{hc|atomic.rules|2=<br />
table atomic {<br />
chain incoming {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ct state new reject<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
table ip6 atomic {<br />
chain incoming {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ct state new reject<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}}<br />
Set the priority of other chains that hook input to higher than 0. This should block new connections while no other input chains are loaded.<br />
<br />
===Rules Script with Atomic Fix===<br />
Because using {{ic|nft -f}} to reload rulesets is time consuming, it's far easier to script it. This will include an atomic fix not based on priorities. It uses the two rules files from above.<br />
{{hc|firewall.sh|2=<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
<br />
# Load atomic rules first<br />
nft -f atomic.rules<br />
<br />
# New incoming traffic should now be stopped<br />
<br />
# Get rid of both the ip and ip6 firewall tables<br />
<br />
nft flush table firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain firewall incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
nft flush table ip6 firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain ip6 firewall incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table ip6 firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
# Reload the firewall rules<br />
nft -f firewall.rules<br />
<br />
# Get rid of both the ip and ip6 atomic tables<br />
<br />
nft flush table atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain atomic incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
# New incoming IP traffic should be working<br />
<br />
nft flush table ip6 atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain ip6 atomic incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table ip6 atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
# New incoming IPv6 traffic should be working<br />
}}<br />
This should take anywhere from 100ms to 400ms, which is clearly unacceptable, but the only apparent solution.<br />
<br />
==Systemd==<br />
<br />
To automatically load rules on system boot, {{AUR|nftables-systemd-git}} from AUR can be used.<br />
Further install instruction can be found on the corresponding [https://github.com/devkid/nftables-systemd github page]<br />

<br />
=====Types=====<br />
There are three types a chain can have and they correspond to the tables used in iptables:<br />
*filter<br />
*nat<br />
*route (mangle)<br />
<br />
=====Hooks=====<br />
There are five hooks a chain can use and they correspond to the chains used in iptables:<br />
*input<br />
*output<br />
*forward<br />
*prerouting<br />
*postrouting<br />
<br />
=====Priorities=====<br />
{{Note|Priorities do not currently appear to have any effect on which chain sees packets first.}}<br />
{{Note|Since the priority seems to be an unsigned integer, negative priorities will be converted into very high priorities.}}<br />
Priorities tell nftables which chains packets should pass through first. They are integers, and the higher the integer, the higher the priority.<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Chains can only be deleted if there are no rules in them.<br />
# nft delete chain foo bar<br />
# nft delete chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands delete the {{ic|bar}} chains from the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
==Rules==<br />
The purpose of rules is to identify packets (match) and carry out tasks (jump). Like in iptables, there are various matches and jumps available, though not all of them are feature-complete in nftables.<br />
<br />
===Listing===<br />
You can list the current rules in a table with the {{ic|nft list}} command, using the same method as listing a table. You can also list rules from an individual chain.<br />
# nft list chain foo bar<br />
# nft list chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands will list the rules in the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
===Creation===<br />
Rules can be added when a table is created in a file definition or one at time via the {{ic|nfc add rule}} command.<br />
# nft add rule foo bar ip saddr 127.0.0.1 accept<br />
# nft add rule ip6 foo bar ip saddr ::1 accept<br />
These commands will add a rule to the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables that matches an {{ic|ip}} packet when its {{ic|saddr}} (source address) is 127.0.0.1 (IPv4) or ::1 (IPv6) and accepts those packets.<br />
<br />
====Matches====<br />
There are various matches available in nftables and, for the most part, coincide with their iptables counterparts. The most noticeable difference is that there are no generic or implicit matches anymore. A generic match was one that was always available, such as {{ic|--protocol}} or {{ic|--source}}. Implicit matches were protocol-specific, such as {{ic|--sport}} when a packet was determined to be TCP.<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of the matches available:<br />
*meta (meta properties, e.g. interfaces)<br />
*icmp (ICMP protocol)<br />
*icmpv6 (ICMPv6 protocol)<br />
*ip (IP protocol)<br />
*ip6 (IPv6 protocol)<br />
*tcp (TCP protocol)<br />
*udp (UDP protocol)<br />
*sctp (SCTP protocol)<br />
*ct (connection tracking)<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of match arguments:<br />
<nowiki><br />
meta:<br />
oif <output interface INDEX><br />
iif <input interface INDEX><br />
oifname <output interface NAME><br />
iifname <input interface NAME><br />
<br />
(oif and iif accept string arguments and are converted to interface indexes)<br />
(oifname and iifname are more dynamic, but slower because of string matching)<br />
<br />
icmp:<br />
type <icmp type><br />
<br />
icmpv6:<br />
type <icmpv6 type><br />
<br />
ip:<br />
protocol <protocol><br />

<br />
tcp:<br />
dport <destination port><br />
sport <source port><br />
<br />
udp:<br />
dport <destination port><br />
sport <source port><br />
<br />
sctp:<br />
dport <destination port><br />
sport <source port><br />
<br />
ct:<br />
state <new | established | related | invalid></nowiki><br />
<br />
====Jumps====<br />
Jumps work the same as they do in iptables, except multiple jumps can now be used in one rule.<br />
# nft add rule filter input tcp dport 22 log accept<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of jumps:<br />
*accept (accept a packet)<br />
*reject (reject a packet)<br />
*drop (drop a packet)<br />
*snat (perform source NAT on a packet)<br />
*dnat (perform destination NAT on a packet)<br />
*log (log a packet)<br />
*counter (keep a counter on a packet; counters are optional in nftables)<br />
<br />
===Insertion===<br />
Rules can be prepended to chains with the {{ic|nft insert rule}} command.<br />
# nft insert rule filter input ct state established,related accept<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Individual rules can only be deleted by their handles. The {{ic|nft --handle list}} command must be used to determine rule handles. Note the {{ic|--handle}} switch, which tells {{ic|nft}} to list handles in its output.<br />
<br />
The following determines the handle for a rule and then deletes it. The {{ic|--number}} argument is useful for viewing some numeric output, like unresolved IP addresses.<br />
{{hc|# sudo nft --handle --numeric list chain filter input|2=<br />
<nowiki><br />
table ip filter {<br />
chain input {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ip saddr 127.0.0.1 accept # handle 10<br />
}<br />
}<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
# nft delete rule filter input handle 10<br />
<br />
All the chains in a table can be flushed with the {{ic|nft flush table}} command. Individual chains can be flushed using either the {{ic|nft flush chain}} or {{ic|nft delete rule}} commands.<br />
# nft flush table foo<br />
# nft flush chain foo bar<br />
# nft delete rule ip6 foo bar<br />
The first command flushes all of the chains in the ip {{ic|foo}} table. The second flushes the {{ic|bar}} chain in the ip {{ic|foo}} table. The third deletes all of the rules in {{ic|bar}} chain in the ip6 {{ic|foo}} table.<br />
<br />
==File Definitions==<br />
{{Warning|The {{ic|nft -f}} command, despite what the [http://people.netfilter.org/wiki-nftables/index.php/Atomic_rule_replacement netfilter wiki] says, is '''NOT''' atomic. This means you will have a small window between deleting the old tables and when the new ruleset is loaded where all packets will be accepted.}}<br />
{{Note|You must delete all conflicting tables before using the {{ic|nft -f}} command.}}<br />
File definitions can be used by the {{ic|nft -f}} command, which acts like the {{ic|iptables-restore}} command.<br />
{{hc|/etc/nftables/filter.rules|2=<br />
<nowiki><br />
table ip filter {<br />
chain input {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />

tcp dport 22 log accept<br />
reject<br />
}<br />
}<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
<br />
==Getting Started==<br />
To get an [[iptables]]-like chain set up, you will first need to use the provided IPv4 filter file:<br />
<br />
# nft -f /etc/nftables/ipv4-filter<br />
<br />
To list the resulting chain:<br />
<br />
# nft list table filter<br />
<br />
Drop output to a destination:<br />
<br />
# nft add rule ip filter output ip daddr 1.2.3.4 drop<br />
<br />
Drop packets destined for local port 80:<br />
<br />
# nft add rule ip filter input tcp dport 80 drop<br />
<br />
Delete all rules in a chain:<br />
<br />
# nft delete rule filter output<br />

<br />

}<br />
}<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
<br />
===Priority-based Atomic Fix===<br />
If priorities ever actually take effect, this may be a workaround for {{ic|nft -f}}'s lack of true atomicness (being able to replace all the current rules with new ones in one go):<br />
{{hc|atomic.rules|2=<br />
table atomic {<br />
chain incoming {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ct state new reject<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
table ip6 atomic {<br />
chain incoming {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ct state new reject<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}}<br />
Set the priority of other chains that hook input to higher than 0. This should block new connections while no other input chains are loaded.<br />
<br />
===Rules Script with Atomic Fix===<br />
Because using {{ic|nft -f}} to reload rulesets is time consuming, it's far easier to script it. This will include an atomic fix not based on priorities. It uses the two rules files from above.<br />
{{hc|firewall.sh|2=<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
<br />
# Load atomic rules first<br />
nft -f atomic.rules<br />
<br />
# New incoming traffic should now be stopped<br />
<br />
# Get rid of both the ip and ip6 firewall tables<br />
<br />
nft flush table firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain firewall incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
nft flush table ip6 firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain ip6 firewall incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table ip6 firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
# Reload the firewall rules<br />
nft -f firewall.rules<br />
<br />
# Get rid of both the ip and ip6 atomic tables<br />
<br />
nft flush table atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain atomic incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
# New incoming IP traffic should be working<br />
<br />
nft flush table ip6 atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain ip6 atomic incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table ip6 atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
# New incoming IPv6 traffic should be working<br />
}}<br />
This should take anywhere from 100ms to 400ms, which is clearly unacceptable, but the only apparent solution.<br />
<br />
==Systemd==<br />
<br />
To automatically load rules on system boot, {{AUR|nftables-systemd-git}} from AUR can be used.<br />
Further install instruction can be found on the corresponding [https://github.com/devkid/nftables-systemd github page]<br />

[http://netfilter.org/projects/nftables/ nftables] is a netfilter project that aims to replace the existing ip-, ip6-, arp-, and ebtables framework. It provides a new packet filtering framework, a new user-space utility (nft), and a compatibility layer for ip- and ip6tables. It uses the existing hooks, connection tracking system, user-space queueing component, and logging subsystem of netfilter.<br />
<br />
The first release is available in Linux 3.13, which is currently in the ''testing'' repository ({{Pkg|linux}}), and nftables (the user-space components) is available in the ''community-testing'' repository ({{Pkg|nftables}}), and on the [[AUR]] in package {{AUR|nftables-git}}.<br />
<br />
{{Expansion|nftables is an entirely new utility, and lacks sufficient documentation on this wiki, as well as elsewhere.}}<br />
<br />
==Overview==<br />
nftables consists of three main components: a kernel implementation, the libnl netlink communication and the nftables user-space front-end. The kernel provides a netlink configuration interface, as well as run-time rule-set evaluation using a small classification language interpreter. libnl contains the low-level functions for communicating with the kernel; the nftables front-end is what the user interacts with.<br />
<br />
==nft==<br />
nftables' user-space utility {{ic|nft}} now performs most of the rule-set evaluation before handing rule-sets to the kernel. Because of this, nftables provides no default tables or chains; although, a user can emulate an iptables-like setup.<br />
<br />
It works in a fashion similar to ifconfig or iproute2. The commands are a long, structured sequence rather than using argument switches like in iptables. For example:<br />
nft add rule ip6 filter input ip saddr ::1 accept<br />
{{ic|add}} is the command. {{ic|rule}} is a subcommand of {{ic|add}}. {{ic|ip6}} is an argument of {{ic|rule}}, telling it to use the ip6 family. {{ic|filter}} and {{ic|input}} are arguments of {{ic|rule}} specifying the table and chain to use, respectively. The rest that follows is a rule definition, which includes matches ({{ic|ip}}), their parameters ({{ic|saddr}}), parameter arguments ({{ic|::1}}), and jumps ({{ic|accept}}).<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of the commands available in nft:<br />
<nowiki><br />
list<br />
tables [family]<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name><br />
<br />
add<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name> [chain definitions]<br />
rule [family] <table> <chain> <rule definition><br />
<br />
table [family] <name> (shortcut for `add table`)<br />
<br />
insert<br />
rule [family] <table> <chain> <rule definition><br />
<br />
delete<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name><br />
rule [family] <table> <handle><br />
<br />
flush<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name></nowiki><br />
{{ic|family}} is optional, but it will default to {{ic|ip}}.<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
The purpose of tables is to hold chains. Unlike tables in iptables, there are no built-in tables in nftables. Tables can have one of four families specified, which unifies the various iptables utilities into one:<br />
*ip (iptables)<br />
*ip6 (ip6tables)<br />
*arp (arptables)<br />
*bridge (ebtables)<br />
{{ic|ip}} is the default family.<br />
A fifth family is scheduled for Linux 3.15 that allows for the unification of the ip and ip6 families to make defining rules for both easier.<br />
<br />
===Listing===<br />
You can list the current tables in a family with the {{ic|nft list}} command.<br />
# nft list tables<br />
# nft list tables ip6<br />
<br />
You can list a full table definition by specifying a table name:<br />
# nft list table foo<br />
# nft list table ip6 foo<br />
<br />
===Creation===<br />
Tables can be added via two commands&#8202;&mdash;&#8202;one just being a shortcut for the other. Here is an example of how to add an ip table called foo and an ip6 table called foo:<br />
# nft add table foo<br />
# nft table ip6 foo<br />
You can have two tables with the same name as long as they are in different families.<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Tables can only be deleted if there are no chains in them.<br />
# nft delete table foo<br />
# nft delete table ip6 foo<br />
<br />
==Chains==<br />
The purpose of chains is to hold rules. Unlike chains in iptables, there are no built-in chains in nftables. This means that if no chain uses any types or hooks in the netfilter framework, packets that would flow through those chains will not be touched by nftables, unlike iptables.<br />
<br />
===Listing===<br />
You can list the current chains in a chain with the {{ic|nft list}} command, using the same method as listing a table. You can also list rules from an individual chain.<br />
# nft list chain foo bar<br />
# nft list chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands will list the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
===Creation===<br />
Chains can be added when a table is created in a file definition or one at time via the {{ic|nfc add chain}} command.<br />
# nft add chain foo bar<br />
# nft add chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands will add a chain called {{ic|bar}} to the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
====Properties====<br />
Because nftables has no built-in chains, it allows chains to access certain features of the netfilter framework.<br />
# nft add chain filter input { type filter hook input priority 0; }<br />
This command tells nftables to add a chain called {{ic|input}} to the {{ic|filter}} table and defines its type, hook, and priority. These properties essentially replace the built-in tables and chains in iptables.<br />
<br />
=====Types=====<br />
There are three types a chain can have and they correspond to the tables used in iptables:<br />
*filter<br />
*nat<br />
*route (mangle)<br />
<br />
=====Hooks=====<br />
There are five hooks a chain can use and they correspond to the chains used in iptables:<br />
*input<br />
*output<br />
*forward<br />
*prerouting<br />
*postrouting<br />
<br />
=====Priorities=====<br />
{{Note|Priorities do not currently appear to have any effect on which chain sees packets first.}}<br />
{{Note|Since the priority seems to be an unsigned integer, negative priorities will be converted into very high priorities.}}<br />
Priorities tell nftables which chains packets should pass through first. They are integers, and the higher the integer, the higher the priority.<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Chains can only be deleted if there are no rules in them.<br />
# nft delete chain foo bar<br />
# nft delete chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands delete the {{ic|bar}} chains from the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
==Rules==<br />
The purpose of rules is to identify packets (match) and carry out tasks (jump). Like in iptables, there are various matches and jumps available, though not all of them are feature-complete in nftables.<br />
<br />
===Listing===<br />
You can list the current rules in a table with the {{ic|nft list}} command, using the same method as listing a table. You can also list rules from an individual chain.<br />
# nft list chain foo bar<br />
# nft list chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands will list the rules in the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
===Creation===<br />
Rules can be added when a table is created in a file definition or one at time via the {{ic|nfc add rule}} command.<br />
# nft add rule foo bar ip saddr 127.0.0.1 accept<br />
# nft add rule ip6 foo bar ip saddr ::1 accept<br />
These commands will add a rule to the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables that matches an {{ic|ip}} packet when its {{ic|saddr}} (source address) is 127.0.0.1 (IPv4) or ::1 (IPv6) and accepts those packets.<br />
<br />
====Matches====<br />
There are various matches available in nftables and, for the most part, coincide with their iptables counterparts. The most noticeable difference is that there are no generic or implicit matches anymore. A generic match was one that was always available, such as {{ic|--protocol}} or {{ic|--source}}. Implicit matches were protocol-specific, such as {{ic|--sport}} when a packet was determined to be TCP.<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of the matches available:<br />
*meta (meta properties, e.g. interfaces)<br />
*icmp (ICMP protocol)<br />
*icmpv6 (ICMPv6 protocol)<br />
*ip (IP protocol)<br />
*ip6 (IPv6 protocol)<br />
*tcp (TCP protocol)<br />
*udp (UDP protocol)<br />
*sctp (SCTP protocol)<br />
*ct (connection tracking)<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of match arguments:<br />

<br />
====Jumps====<br />
Jumps work the same as they do in iptables, except multiple jumps can now be used in one rule.<br />
# nft add rule filter input tcp dport 22 log accept<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of jumps:<br />
*accept (accept a packet)<br />
*reject (reject a packet)<br />
*drop (drop a packet)<br />
*snat (perform source NAT on a packet)<br />
*dnat (perform destination NAT on a packet)<br />
*log (log a packet)<br />
*counter (keep a counter on a packet; counters are optional in nftables)<br />
<br />
===Insertion===<br />
Rules can be prepended to chains with the {{ic|nft insert rule}} command.<br />
# nft insert rule filter input ct state established,related accept<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Individual rules can only be deleted by their handles. The {{ic|nft --handle list}} command must be used to determine rule handles. Note the {{ic|--handle}} switch, which tells {{ic|nft}} to list handles in its output.<br />
<br />
The following determines the handle for a rule and then deletes it. The {{ic|--number}} argument is useful for viewing some numeric output, like unresolved IP addresses.<br />
{{hc|# sudo nft --handle --numeric list chain filter input|2=<br />
<nowiki><br />
table ip filter {<br />
chain input {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ip saddr 127.0.0.1 accept # handle 10<br />
}<br />
}<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
# nft delete rule filter input handle 10<br />
<br />
All the chains in a table can be flushed with the {{ic|nft flush table}} command. Individual chains can be flushed using either the {{ic|nft flush chain}} or {{ic|nft delete rule}} commands.<br />
# nft flush table foo<br />
# nft flush chain foo bar<br />
# nft delete rule ip6 foo bar<br />
The first command flushes all of the chains in the ip {{ic|foo}} table. The second flushes the {{ic|bar}} chain in the ip {{ic|foo}} table. The third deletes all of the rules in {{ic|bar}} chain in the ip6 {{ic|foo}} table.<br />

===Priority-based Atomic Fix===<br />
If priorities ever actually take effect, this may be a workaround for {{ic|nft -f}}'s lack of true atomicness (being able to replace all the current rules with new ones in one go):<br />
{{hc|atomic.rules|2=<br />
table atomic {<br />
chain incoming {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ct state new reject<br />
}<br />
}<br />
<br />
table ip6 atomic {<br />
chain incoming {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ct state new reject<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}}<br />
Set the priority of other chains that hook input to higher than 0. This should block new connections while no other input chains are loaded.<br />
<br />
===Rules Script with Atomic Fix===<br />
Because using {{ic|nft -f}} to reload rulesets is time consuming, it's far easier to script it. This will include an atomic fix not based on priorities. It uses the two rules files from above.<br />
{{hc|firewall.sh|2=<br />
#!/bin/sh<br />
<br />
# Load atomic rules first<br />
nft -f atomic.rules<br />
<br />
# New incoming traffic should now be stopped<br />
<br />
# Get rid of both the ip and ip6 firewall tables<br />
<br />
nft flush table firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain firewall incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
nft flush table ip6 firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain ip6 firewall incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table ip6 firewall 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
# Reload the firewall rules<br />
nft -f firewall.rules<br />
<br />
# Get rid of both the ip and ip6 atomic tables<br />
<br />
nft flush table atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain atomic incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
# New incoming IP traffic should be working<br />
<br />
nft flush table ip6 atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete chain ip6 atomic incoming 2>/dev/null<br />
nft delete table ip6 atomic 2>/dev/null<br />
<br />
# New incoming IPv6 traffic should be working<br />
}}<br />
This should take anywhere from 100ms to 400ms, which is clearly unacceptable, but the only apparent solution.<br />
<br />

[http://netfilter.org/projects/nftables/ nftables] is a netfilter project that aims to replace the existing ip-, ip6-, arp-, and ebtables framework. It provides a new packet filtering framework, a new user-space utility (nft), and a compatibility layer for ip- and ip6tables. It uses the existing hooks, connection tracking system, user-space queueing component, and logging subsystem of netfilter.<br />
<br />
The first release is available in Linux 3.13, which is currently in the ''testing'' repository ({{Pkg|linux}}), and nftables (the user-space components) is available in the ''community-testing'' repository ({{Pkg|nftables}}), and on the [[AUR]] in package {{AUR|nftables-git}}.<br />
<br />
{{Expansion|nftables is an entirely new utility, and lacks sufficient documentation on this wiki, as well as elsewhere.}}<br />
<br />
==Overview==<br />
nftables consists of three main components: a kernel implementation, the libnl netlink communication and the nftables user-space front-end. The kernel provides a netlink configuration interface, as well as run-time rule-set evaluation using a small classification language interpreter. libnl contains the low-level functions for communicating with the kernel; the nftables front-end is what the user interacts with.<br />
<br />
==nft==<br />
nftables' user-space utility {{ic|nft}} now performs most of the rule-set evaluation before handing rule-sets to the kernel. Because of this, nftables provides no default tables or chains; although, a user can emulate an iptables-like setup.<br />
<br />
It works in a fashion similar to ifconfig or iproute2. The commands are a long, structured sequence rather than using argument switches like in iptables. For example:<br />
nft add rule ip6 filter input ip saddr ::1 accept<br />
{{ic|add}} is the command. {{ic|rule}} is a subcommand of {{ic|add}}. {{ic|ip6}} is an argument of {{ic|rule}}, telling it to use the ip6 family. {{ic|filter}} and {{ic|input}} are arguments of {{ic|rule}} specifying the table and chain to use, respectively. The rest that follows is a rule definition, which includes matches ({{ic|ip}}), their parameters ({{ic|saddr}}), parameter arguments ({{ic|::1}}), and jumps ({{ic|accept}}).<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of the commands available in nft:<br />
<nowiki><br />
list<br />
tables [family]<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name><br />
<br />
add<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name> [chain definitions]<br />
rule [family] <table> <chain> <rule definition><br />
<br />
table [family] <name> (shortcut for `add table`)<br />
<br />
insert<br />
rule [family] <table> <chain> <rule definition><br />
<br />
delete<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name><br />
rule [family] <table> <handle><br />
<br />
flush<br />
table [family] <name><br />
chain [family] <table> <name></nowiki><br />
{{ic|family}} is optional, but it will default to {{ic|ip}}.<br />
<br />
==Tables==<br />
The purpose of tables is to hold chains. Unlike tables in iptables, there are no built-in tables in nftables. Tables can have one of four families specified, which unifies the various iptables utilities into one:<br />
*ip (iptables)<br />
*ip6 (ip6tables)<br />
*arp (arptables)<br />
*bridge (ebtables)<br />
{{ic|ip}} is the default family.<br />
A fifth family is scheduled for Linux 3.15 that allows for the unification of the ip and ip6 families to make defining rules for both easier.<br />
<br />
===Listing===<br />
You can list the current tables in a family with the {{ic|nft list}} command.<br />
# nft list tables<br />
# nft list tables ip6<br />
<br />
You can list a full table definition by specifying a table name:<br />
# nft list table foo<br />
# nft list table ip6 foo<br />
<br />
===Creation===<br />
Tables can be added via two commands&#8202;&mdash;&#8202;one just being a shortcut for the other. Here is an example of how to add an ip table called foo and an ip6 table called foo:<br />
# nft add table foo<br />
# nft table ip6 foo<br />
You can have two tables with the same name as long as they are in different families.<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Tables can only be deleted if there are no chains in them.<br />
# nft delete table foo<br />
# nft delete table ip6 foo<br />
<br />
==Chains==<br />
The purpose of chains is to hold rules. Unlike chains in iptables, there are no built-in chains in nftables. This means that if no chain uses any types or hooks in the netfilter framework, packets that would flow through those chains will not be touched by nftables, unlike iptables.<br />
<br />
===Listing===<br />
You can list the current chains in a chain with the {{ic|nft list}} command, using the same method as listing a table. You can also list rules from an individual chain.<br />
# nft list chain foo bar<br />
# nft list chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands will list the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
===Creation===<br />
Chains can be added when a table is created in a file definition or one at time via the {{ic|nfc add chain}} command.<br />
# nft add chain foo bar<br />
# nft add chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands will add a chain called {{ic|bar}} to the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
====Properties====<br />
Because nftables has no built-in chains, it allows chains to access certain features of the netfilter framework.<br />
# nft add chain filter input { type filter hook input priority 0; }<br />
This command tells nftables to add a chain called {{ic|input}} to the {{ic|filter}} table and defines its type, hook, and priority. These properties essentially replace the built-in tables and chains in iptables.<br />
<br />
=====Types=====<br />
There are three types a chain can have and they correspond to the tables used in iptables:<br />
*filter<br />
*nat<br />
*route (mangle)<br />
<br />
=====Hooks=====<br />
There are five hooks a chain can use and they correspond to the chains used in iptables:<br />
*input<br />
*output<br />
*forward<br />
*prerouting<br />
*postrouting<br />
<br />
=====Priorities=====<br />
{{Note|Priorities do not currently appear to have any effect on which chain sees packets first.}}<br />
{{Note|Since the priority seems to be an unsigned integer, negative priorities will be converted into very high priorities.}}<br />
Priorities tell nftables which chains packets should pass through first. They are integers, and the higher the integer, the higher the priority.<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Chains can only be deleted if there are no rules in them.<br />
# nft delete chain foo bar<br />
# nft delete chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands delete the {{ic|bar}} chains from the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
==Rules==<br />
The purpose of rules is to identify packets (match) and carry out tasks (jump). Like in iptables, there are various matches and jumps available, though not all of them are feature-complete in nftables.<br />
<br />
===Listing===<br />
You can list the current rules in a table with the {{ic|nft list}} command, using the same method as listing a table. You can also list rules from an individual chain.<br />
# nft list chain foo bar<br />
# nft list chain ip6 foo bar<br />
These commands will list the rules in the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables.<br />
<br />
===Creation===<br />
Rules can be added when a table is created in a file definition or one at time via the {{ic|nfc add rule}} command.<br />
# nft add rule foo bar ip saddr 127.0.0.1 accept<br />
# nft add rule ip6 foo bar ip saddr ::1 accept<br />
These commands will add a rule to the {{ic|bar}} chains in the ip and ip6 {{ic|foo}} tables that matches an {{ic|ip}} packet when its {{ic|saddr}} (source address) is 127.0.0.1 (IPv4) or ::1 (IPv6) and accepts those packets.<br />
<br />
====Matches====<br />
There are various matches available in nftables and, for the most part, coincide with their iptables counterparts. The most noticeable difference is that there are no generic or implicit matches anymore. A generic match was one that was always available, such as {{ic|--protocol}} or {{ic|--source}}. Implicit matches were protocol-specific, such as {{ic|--sport}} when a packet was determined to be TCP.<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of the matches available:<br />
*meta (meta properties, e.g. interfaces)<br />
*icmp (ICMP protocol)<br />
*icmpv6 (ICMPv6 protocol)<br />
*ip (IP protocol)<br />
*ip6 (IPv6 protocol)<br />
*tcp (TCP protocol)<br />
*udp (UDP protocol)<br />
*sctp (SCTP protocol)<br />
*ct (connection tracking)<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of match arguments:<br />
<nowiki><br />
meta:<br />
oif <output interface INDEX><br />
iif <input interface INDEX><br />
oifname <output interface NAME><br />
iifname <input interface NAME><br />
<br />
(oif and iif accept string arguments and are converted to interface indexes)<br />
(oifname and iifname are more dynamic, but slower because of string matching)<br />
<br />
icmp:<br />
type <icmp type><br />
<br />
icmpv6:<br />
type <icmpv6 type><br />
<br />
ip:<br />
protocol <protocol><br />
daddr <destination address><br />
saddr <source address><br />
<br />
ip6:<br />
daddr <destination address><br />
saddr <source address><br />
<br />
tcp:<br />
dport <destination port><br />
sport <source port><br />
<br />
udp:<br />
dport <destination port><br />
sport <source port><br />
<br />
sctp:<br />
dport <destination port><br />
sport <source port><br />
<br />
ct:<br />
state <new | established | related | invalid></nowiki><br />
<br />
====Jumps====<br />
Jumps work the same as they do in iptables, except multiple jumps can now be used in one rule.<br />
# nft add rule filter input tcp dport 22 log accept<br />
<br />
The following is an incomplete list of jumps:<br />
*accept (accept a packet)<br />
*reject (reject a packet)<br />
*drop (drop a packet)<br />
*snat (perform source NAT on a packet)<br />
*dnat (perform destination NAT on a packet)<br />
*log (log a packet)<br />
*counter (keep a counter on a packet; counters are optional in nftables)<br />
<br />
===Insertion===<br />
Rules can be prepended to chains with the {{ic|nft insert rule}} command.<br />
# nft insert rule filter input ct state established,related accept<br />
<br />
===Deletion===<br />
Individual rules can only be deleted by their handles. The {{ic|nft --handle list}} command must be used to determine rule handles. Note the {{ic|--handle}} switch, which tells {{ic|nft}} to list handles in its output.<br />
<br />
The following determines the handle for a rule and then deletes it. The {{ic|--number}} argument is useful for viewing some numeric output, like unresolved IP addresses.<br />
{{hc|# sudo nft --handle --numeric list chain filter input|2=<br />
<nowiki><br />
table ip filter {<br />
chain input {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ip saddr 127.0.0.1 accept # handle 10<br />
}<br />
}<br />
</nowiki><br />
}}<br />
# nft delete rule filter input handle 10<br />
<br />
All the chains in a table can be flushed with the {{ic|nft flush table}} command. Individual chains can be flushed using either the {{ic|nft flush chain}} or {{ic|nft delete rule}} commands.<br />
# nft flush table foo<br />
# nft flush chain foo bar<br />
# nft delete rule ip6 foo bar<br />
The first command flushes all of the chains in the ip {{ic|foo}} table. The second flushes the {{ic|bar}} chain in the ip {{ic|foo}} table. The third deletes all of the rules in {{ic|bar}} chain in the ip6 {{ic|foo}} table.<br />
<br />
==File Definitions==<br />
{{Warning|The {{ic|nft -f}} command, despite what the [http://people.netfilter.org/wiki-nftables/index.php/Atomic_rule_replacement netfilter wiki] says, is '''NOT''' atomic. This means you will have a small window between deleting the old tables and when the new ruleset is loaded where all packets will be accepted.}}<br />
{{Note|You must delete all conflicting tables before using the {{ic|nft -f}} command.}}<br />
File definitions can be used by the {{ic|nft -f}} command, which acts like the {{ic|iptables-restore}} command.<br />

{{hc|atomic.rules|2=<br />

}<br />
}<br />
<br />
table ip6 atomic {<br />
chain incoming {<br />
type filter hook input priority 0;<br />
ct state new reject<br />
}<br />
}<br />
}}<br />
Set the priority of other chains that hook input to higher than 0. This should block new connections while no other input chains are loaded.<br />
<br />
