syntax error, unexpected flush, expecting string
This line:

should be:

otherwise, this error happens:

But the reason that I'm not changing this myself in the page is: 1. I am running the above on non-gentoo linux (nftables v0.4, kernel 4.0.0-g39a8804) and 2. it may have changed with the new versions of nftables thus the original command may still work as expected and without error in gentoo. --EmanueLczirai (talk) 17:17, 21 April 2015 (UTC)


 * I'm thinking that those commands came from here https://wiki.nftables.org/wiki-nftables/index.php/Operations_at_ruleset_level#backup.2Frestore --EmanueLczirai (talk) 22:23, 21 April 2015 (UTC)


 * Tested on nftables-0.6-r4 and fixed as suggested Cjmayo (talk) 16:12, 19 November 2016 (UTC)

Still a stub?
Has this been fleshed out enough so that we can drop the stub marking? --TitanOfOld (talk) 17:07, 12 July 2019 (UTC)

IPTables support
I believe this module - 'IP tables support (required for filtering/masq/NAT)' - is not really necessary to run nftables. On the other hand, the setting 'Netfilter nf_tables reject support' is indeed needed or nftables won't start. Finoderi (talk) 09:50, 2 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the feedback ! Please use the “ ” template and end posts with four tildes to insert signature “ ”. I've added the talk template (I know, it's missing from the previous posts too xD), but I don't know how to add another person's signature. Kyoreln (talk) 09:04, 2 August 2021 (UTC)
