Ok. I don't know IPFW. I use PF on FreeBSD and OpenBSD. I love the syntax of PF. It's so better than Netfilter.

iptables is totally screwed up, but have you tried nftables?

I've converted all my Linux servers to nftables specifically due to its syntax similarity to BSD

@kravietz @qdemouliere @feld

may I ask you to expand the similarity between nftables and pf?
@loweel @kravietz @feld I read quickly documentation about nftables but i know better iptables. And since i tried PF, i lost interest for Netfilter.
@qdemouliere @feld @kravietz

I understand that. I was just curious about how nftables was "similar to BSD pf".....I am not arguing, I just ask....

Perhaps the good of iptables was the one-liner capability (in some cases), while it looks like this is somehow limited in nftables...

@loweel @feld @qdemouliere

No, you can do both in nftables. Either command-line one liners:

nft add element inet main ossec4 { 10.10.10.10, 10.10.10.20 }

Or the same in config file format which is more suitable for atomic loads.
