Hello,
why does iptables-save print 2 numbers in square brackets?
Is it used for anything? Is it number of inspected packets
(and what's the other number then)?
And what does *filter mean?
Thank you
Alex

It's the table name. filter is the name of the default table. The
other table name you may see in common use is nat.
