[LUG.ro] Chau iptables, hola nftables

[Julio Cesar Puigpinos]

Parece ser que ya esta encaminado el reemplazo para iptables, asi que
mejor empezar a aprenderlo desde ahora :P

"Finally, with a lot of delay, I've just released the first full public
version of my nftables code (including userspace), which is intended to
become a successor to iptables. Its written from scratch and there are
numerous differences to iptables in both features and design, so I'll
start with a brief overview.

There are three main components:

- the kernel implementation
- libnl netlink communication
- nftables userspace frontend

The kernel provides a netlink configuration interface, as well as
runtime ruleset evaluation using a small classification language
interpreter. libnl contains the low-level functions for communicating
with the kernel, the nftables frontend is what the user interacts with."
