[ol8_baseos_latest] iptables-1.8.4-17.0.1.el8.x86_64

The iptables utility controls the network packet filtering code in the
Linux kernel. If you need to set up firewalls and/or IP masquerading,
you should either install nftables or this package.

Note: This package contains the nftables-based variants of iptables and
ip6tables, which are drop-in replacements of the legacy tools.
