Описание (Description)
iptables-xml
is used to convert the output of iptables-save into
an easily manipulatable XML format to STDOUT. Use I/O-
redirection provided by your shell to write to a file.
-c
, --combine
combine consecutive rules with the same matches but
different targets. iptables does not currently support
more than one target per match, so this simulates that by
collecting the targets from consecutive iptables rules
into one action tag, but only when the rule matches are
identical. Terminating actions like RETURN, DROP, ACCEPT
and QUEUE are not combined with subsequent targets.
-v
, --verbose
Output xml comments containing the iptables line from
which the XML is derived
iptables-xml does a mechanistic conversion to a very expressive
xml format; the only semantic considerations are for -g and -j
targets in order to discriminate between <call> <goto> and <nane-
of-target> as it helps xml processing scripts if they can tell
the difference between a target like SNAT and another chain.
Some sample output is:
<iptables-rules>
<table name="mangle">
<chain name="PREROUTING" policy="ACCEPT" packet-count="63436"
byte-count="7137573">
<rule>
<conditions>
<match>
<p>tcp</p>
</match>
<tcp>
<sport>8443</sport>
</tcp>
</conditions>
<actions>
<call>
<check_ip/>
</call>
<ACCEPT/>
</actions>
</rule>
</chain>
</table> </iptables-rules>
Conversion from XML to iptables-save format may be done using the
iptables.xslt script and xsltproc, or a custom program using
libxsltproc or similar; in this fashion:
xsltproc iptables.xslt my-iptables.xml | iptables-restore
