Hi there,
When creating a VM with a persistent virtual network, libvirt creates an XML file with firewall definitions and stores it in /etc/libvirt/<hypervisor>/networks/. The XML file is (to my knowledge) incompatible with iptables-restore. Therefore you cant manage your firewall with other iptables (GUI) tools unless libvirt lets you a) import extra rules, b) has an option to export the XML rules into iptables-save format or c) something else. If a) , b) or c) is possible then this discussion is of course useless and I would be pleased to know how its done :) If not, then lets get the discussion started. IMHO, saving rules into XML instead of using iptables-save is absurd since youll have to code stuff which is already coded. Also youll make it incompatible with the tools which are readily available. Why go for this approach and what do we get from it? Best regards, -Hansa
