/* This module enables a simple firewall.

   The firewall can be customised in arbitrary ways by setting
   ‘networking.firewall.extraCommands’.  For modularity, the firewall
   uses several chains:

   - ‘nixos-fw-input’ is the main chain for input packet processing.

   - ‘nixos-fw-log-refuse’ and ‘nixos-fw-refuse’ are called for
     refused packets.  (The former jumps to the latter after logging
     the packet.)  If you want additional logging, or want to accept
     certain packets anyway, you can insert rules at the start of
     these chain.

   - ‘nixos-fw-accept’ is called for accepted packets.  If you want
     additional logging, or want to reject certain packets anyway, you
     can insert rules at the start of this chain.
