 =====NFTables Configuration=====
 The best reference for nftables is at the dedicated wiki [[https://wiki.nftables.org/|wiki nftables]]. Some other references I found [[https://gist.github.com/wolfhechel/db7ed3be31feb104752e|nftables router]]. The reference at stosb is good, but not for a router [[https://stosb.com/blog/explaining-my-configs-nftables/|Explaining My Configs: nftables]].

+====iptables====
+It is not a good idea to have both iptables and nftables rules setup at the same time.
+  *To check existing iptables rules: ''sudo iptables -S'', the output should be as follows, indicating no restrictions:
+<code text>-P INPUT ACCEPT
+-P FORWARD ACCEPT
+-P OUTPUT ACCEPT</code>
+  *The iptables rules can be flushed with ''sudo iptables -F''.
