SYNOPSIS
iptables-save [-M,--modprobe modprobe] [-c] [-t table]
ip6tables-save [-M,--modprobe modprobe] [-c] [-t table]
DESCRIPTION
iptables-save and ip6tables-save are used to dump the contents of IP or
IPv6 Table in easily parseable format to STDOUT. Use I/O-redirection
provided by your shell to write to a file.
-M,--modprobe modprobe_program
Specify the path to the modprobe program. By default, iptables-
save will inspect /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe to determine the
executable's path.
-c, --counters
include the current values of all packet and byte counters in
the output
-t, --table tablename
restrict output to only one table. If the kernel is configured
with automatic module loading, an attempt will be made to load
the appropriate module for that table if it is not already
there.
If not specified, output includes all available tables.
