[Bug 45] Feature: only count packets that get matched in a chain
https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/cgi-bin/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=45 laforge@netfilter.org changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Status|NEW |RESOLVED Resolution| |WONTFIX ------- Additional Comments From laforge@netfilter.org 2003-02-08 13:08 ------- I'm sorry, but this doesn't fit into the architecture/design of iptables. The counters beahve exactly like they are meant to behave. The counters indicate how often a particular rule has matched. And if a rule that jumps to a userdefined chain is matched, the counter is incremented. Everything else would be confusing. The numbers you need can easily be calculated afterwards in userspace by parsing the iptables output. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is.
