IP Tables State implements the "state top" feature from IP Filter for IP Tables. "State top" displays the states held by your stateful firewall in a "top"-like manner. Since IP Tables doesn't have a built-in way to easily display this information once, an option was added to iptstate to do this.

Recent releases


Changes: A small formatting bug in 2.2.0 was fixed.


Changes: This release adds many features, such as the ability to delete entries from your netfilter state table, per-state byte and packet counters, port name lookup ICMP ID display, better scrolling support, and more.


Changes: Version 2.0 mixed up --src-filter with --srcpt-filter and --dst-filter with --dstpt-filter. This is just a point-release to fix that.


Changes: This version has a slew of new features, the biggest of which is scrolling. You can now scroll to see your whole state table. It also added color-coding by protocol, an interactive help menu, more filter options, the ability to change filters interactively, significantly better dynamic column sizing, less memory usage, long options support, and better window resize handling. Lastly, the code has been significantly re-factored and re-tooled to be more efficient, use less-memory, and be generally cleaner.


Changes: This version introduces the ability to filter what gets shown by the source and/or destination IP address. It also has new features which allow you to mark entries where hostnames have been truncated and to supress the display of DNS entries to make name-resolution mode more useful. A lot of code and documentation cleanups were also made.
