It reads a file generated with \&\fBiptables-save\fR, and tries to suggest a ferm configuration file. .PP If no input file was specified on the command line, \fBimport-ferm\fR runs \fIiptables-save\fR. .SH BUGS .IX Header "BUGS" iptables-save older than 1.3 is unable to write valid saves \- this is not a bug in \fBimport-ferm\fR.
