There are already commands in the Dachstein network scripts to do this.
The "best" way is to learn how to adjust the variables in the
configuration file to activate these commands.
If you don't want to do that, then editing the ipfilter script is probably
the next best choice. If you want to do a separate script, then you
probably ought to remove the existing network scripts to reduce confusion.
