I want to log only iptables message into /var/log/iptables.log.

Here is my way.



sudo vim /etc/rsyslog.conf
kern.* -/var/log/iptables.log
sudo vim /etc/rsyslog.d/iptables.conf
:msg, startswith, "NETFILTER" -/var/log/iptables.log
& ~
sudo iptables -A OUTPUT -m limit --limit 10/m -j LOG --log-prefix NETFILTER
sudo iptables-save > /etc/iptables/rules.v4
sudo systemctl restart rsyslog


And to clear all log messages in /var/log/iptables.log.



sudo echo "" |sudo tee /var/log/iptables.log


Now to reboot pc.

  • You need to remove the line kern.* -/var/log/iptables.log if you dont want all kernel messages in that log file.

  • if you remove kern.* -/var/log/iptables.log ,both part1 and part2 will not be written into iptables.log.
