Package: ip6tables Priority: optional Version: 1.4.10-1 Source: iptables Architecture: __ARCH__ Maintainer: Paul A. Whittaker Section: Utilities Destination: any Depends: initscript, busybox (>= 1.11.2-1), libc6 (>= 2.7-1) Description: Control utility for kernel IPv6 filter/NAT capability This utility is required to load policies into the Linux layer 3 IPv6 firewall, and to display loaded policies. . The rules input and output by ip6tables are low-level and pretty unintelligible to the lay person, and are thus typically machine- generated by a more user friendly front end.
