I was playing around with iptables to setup an isolated system. On a SLES10 system, I ran the below to setup my first draft of rules. I noticed that the rules come into effect immediately and do not require any restart of iptables.
Now, I want to add a new rule in the middle (lets say, open outbound communication on port 500 for ip yy.yy.yy.yy). But since the rules are evaluated sequentially, it will become effective after my last rule (which is iptables -P OUTPUT DROP). Since all packets match this default rule for output, I cannot add a new rule without rebooting the machine.
I wanted to know if there is a way to introduce new rules without having to reboot a machine, ie introduce a rule above the 'iptables -P OUTPUT DROP'. Any help or leads into documentation will help.
