NAME
       iptables-apply - a safer way to update iptables remotely

SYNOPSIS
       iptables-apply [-hV] [-t timeout] ruleset-file

DESCRIPTION
       iptables-apply	will  try  to  apply  a	 new  ruleset  (as  output  by
       iptables-save/read by iptables-restore) to iptables,  then  prompt  the
       user  whether the changes are okay. If the new ruleset cut the existing
       connection, the user will not be able to answer affirmatively. In  this
       case,  the  script rolls back to the previous ruleset after the timeout
       expired. The timeout can be set with -t.

       When   called	as    ip6tables-apply,	  the	 script	   will	   use
       ip6tables-save/-restore instead.

OPTIONS
       -t seconds, --timeout seconds
	      Sets  the	 timeout  after which the script will roll back to the
	      previous ruleset.

       -h, --help
	      Display usage information.

       -V, --version
	      Display version information.
