src:iptables: drop unused manual pages 



Drop unused manpages:

* d/xtables-compat.8 is no longer relevant, the information is included in xtables-nft.8
* d/xtables-translate.8 is already included in the upstream tarball
* d/xtables-multi.8 is no longer relevant, info in either xtables-{nft,legacy}-multi.8

.TH XTABLES-COMPAT 8 "Feb 25, 2017"
.SH NAME
xtables-compat \- compat tools to migrate from iptables to nftables
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBxtables-compat\fP is set of tools to help the system administrator migrate the
ruleset from \fBiptables(8)\fP, \fBip6tables(8)\fP, \fBarptables(8)\fP, and
\fBebtables(8)\fP to \fBnftables(8)\fP.
The \fBxtables-compat\fP set is composed of several commands:
.IP \[bu] 2
iptables-compat
.IP \[bu]
iptables-compat-save
.IP \[bu]
iptables-compat-restore
.IP \[bu]
ip6tables-compat
.IP \[bu]
ip6tables-compat-save
.IP \[bu]
ip6tables-compat-restore
.IP \[bu]
arptables-compat
.IP \[bu]
ebtables-compat
These tools use the libxtables framework extensions and hook to the nf_tables
kernel subsystem using the \fBnft_compat\fP module.
.SH USAGE
The compat tools set allows you to manage the nf_tables backend using the
native syntax of \fBiptables(8)\fP, \fBip6tables(8)\fP, \fBarptables(8)\fP, and
\fBebtables(8)\fP.
You should use the compat tools exactly the same way as you would use the
corresponding original tool.
Adding a rule will result in that rule being added to the nf_tables kernel
subsystem instead.
Listing the ruleset will use the nf_tables backend as well.
When these tools were designed, the main idea was to replace each legacy binary
with a symlink to the corresponding compat tool, for example:
.nf
/sbin/iptables --> /usr/sbin/iptables-compat
/sbin/ip6tables --> /usr/sbin/ip6tables-compat
/sbin/arptables --> /usr/sbin/arptables-compat
/sbin/ebtables --> /usr/sbin/ebtables-compat
.fi
.SH EXAMPLES
One basic example is creating the skeleton ruleset in nf_tables from the
compat tools, in a fresh machine:
.nf
root@machine:~# iptables-compat -L
[...]
root@machine:~# ip6tables-compat -L
[...]
root@machine:~# arptables-compat -L
[...]
root@machine:~# ebtables-compat -L
[...]
root@machine:~# nft list ruleset
table ip filter {
chain INPUT {
type filter hook input priority 0; policy accept;
}
chain FORWARD {
type filter hook forward priority 0; policy accept;
}
chain OUTPUT {
type filter hook output priority 0; policy accept;
}
}
table ip6 filter {
chain INPUT {
type filter hook input priority 0; policy accept;
}
chain FORWARD {
type filter hook forward priority 0; policy accept;
}
chain OUTPUT {
type filter hook output priority 0; policy accept;
}
}
table bridge filter {
chain INPUT {
type filter hook input priority -200; policy accept;
}
chain FORWARD {
type filter hook forward priority -200; policy accept;
}
chain OUTPUT {
type filter hook output priority -200; policy accept;
}
}
table arp filter {
chain INPUT {
type filter hook input priority 0; policy accept;
}
chain FORWARD {
type filter hook forward priority 0; policy accept;
}
chain OUTPUT {
type filter hook output priority 0; policy accept;
}
}
.fi
(please note that in fresh machines, listing the ruleset for the first time
results in all tables an chain being created).
To migrate your complete filter ruleset, in the case of \fBiptables(8)\fP,
you would use:
.nf
root@machine:~# iptables-save > myruleset # reads from x_tables
root@machine:~# iptables-compat-restore myruleset # writes to nf_tables
.fi
.SH LIMITATIONS
You should use \fBLinux kernel >= 4.2\fP.
Some (few) extensions may be not supported (or fully-supported) for whatever
reason (for example, they were considered obsolete).
To get up-to-date information about this, please head to
\fBhttp://wiki.nftables.org/\fP.

.TH XTABLES-TRANSLATE 8 "Mar 16, 2018"
.SH NAME
xtables-translate \- translation tools to migrate from iptables to nftables
.SH DESCRIPTION
There is a set of tools to help the system administrator translate a given
ruleset from \fBiptables(8)\fP and \fBip6tables(8)\fP to \fBnftables(8)\fP.
The available commands are:
.IP \[bu] 2
iptables-translate
.IP \[bu]
iptables-restore-translate
.IP \[bu] 2
ip6tables-translate
.IP \[bu]
ip6tables-restore-translate
.SH USAGE
They take as input the original \fBiptables(8)\fP/\fBip6tables(8)\fP syntax and
output the native \fBnftables(8)\fP syntax.
The \fBiptables-restore-translate\fP tool reads a ruleset in the syntax
produced by \fBiptables-save(8)\fP. Likewise, the
\fBip6tables-restore-translate\fP tool reads one produced by
\fBip6tables-save(8)\fP.
The \fBiptables-translate\fP reads a command line as if it was entered to
\fBiptables(8)\fP, and \fBip6tables-translate\fP reads a command like as if it
was entered to \fBip6tables(8)\fP.
.SH EXAMPLES
Basic operation examples.
Single command translation:
.nf
root@machine:~# iptables-translate -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 22 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT
nft add rule ip filter INPUT tcp dport 22 ct state new counter accept
root@machine:~# ip6tables-translate -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth3 -p udp -m multiport --dports 111,222 -j ACCEPT
nft add rule ip6 filter FORWARD iifname eth0 oifname eth3 meta l4proto udp udp dport { 111,222} counter accept
.fi
Whole ruleset translation:
.nf
root@machine:~# iptables-save > save.txt
root@machine:~# cat save.txt
# Generated by iptables-save v1.6.0 on Sat Dec 24 14:26:40 2016
*filter
:INPUT ACCEPT [5166:1752111]
:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [5058:628693]
-A FORWARD -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT

# Translated by iptables-restore-translate v1.6.0 on Sat Dec 24 14:26:59 2016
add table ip filter
add chain ip filter INPUT { type filter hook input priority 0; }
add chain ip filter FORWARD { type filter hook forward priority 0; }
add chain ip filter OUTPUT { type filter hook output priority 0; }
add rule ip filter FORWARD tcp dport 22 ct state new counter accept
root@machine:~# iptables-restore-translate -f save.txt > ruleset.nft
root@machine:~# nft -f ruleset.nft
root@machine:~# nft list ruleset
table ip filter {

}
chain FORWARD {
type filter hook forward priority 0; policy accept;
tcp dport ssh ct state new counter packets 0 bytes 0 accept
}
chain OUTPUT {
type filter hook output priority 0; policy accept;
}
}
.fi
.SH LIMITATIONS
Some (few) extensions may be not supported (or fully-supported) for whatever
reason (for example, they were considered obsolete, or we didn't have the time
to work on them).
There are no translations available for \fBebtables(8)\fP and
\fBarptables(8)\fP.
