Why is the ip_tables module loaded at boot when firewalld is disabled?
Issue
- Why do we see this in
dmesg
output iffirewalld
is disabled andiptables-service
is not present?
[root@localhost ~]# dmesg | grep ip_tables
[ 2.903450] ip_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team
[ 2.903521] systemd[1]: Inserted module 'ip_tables'
