Code:

To apply changes to your iptable
Code:
sudo iptables-save > /etc/iptables.rules
You may then change your iptables configuration by writing or editing your saved rules. To test them when you are done.
Code:
sudo iptables-apply < /etc/iptables.new_rule_set

iptables-restore < /etc/iptables.rules
