Where should I add my custom iptables rules on RHEV-H?
Issue
- I have installed several hypervisors now and the default iptables setup for these included these lines at the end:
-A FORWARD -m physdev ! --physdev-is-bridged -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited
- If I add a number of additional commands to open up the server to certain IP numbers or ports, should this command go before / after or does it not make any difference?
- It does not look as if this is opening the hypervisor to more accessibility, so it is not clear where I would best add the line in my expanded iptables list.
Environment
- Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization v3.1
