       ip6tables-save — dump iptables rules to stdout

SYNOPSIS

       iptables-save [-M modprobe] [-c] [-t table]

       ip6tables-save [-M modprobe] [-c] [-t table]

DESCRIPTION

       iptables-save  and  ip6tables-save  are  used  to dump the contents of IP or IPv6 Table in
       easily parseable format to STDOUT. Use I/O-redirection provided by your shell to write  to
       a file.

       -M, --modprobe modprobe_program
              Specify  the  path  to the modprobe program. By default, iptables-save will inspect
              /proc/sys/kernel/modprobe to determine the executable's path.

       -c, --counters
              include the current values of all packet and byte counters in the output

       -t, --table tablename
              restrict output to only one table. If not specified, output includes all  available
              tables.
