The "-w" option was added to the 1.4.20 version of IPtables in august 2013 (https://www.netfilter.org/projects/iptables/files/changes-iptables-1.4.20.txt). Maybe this feature should be kept optional for compatibility reasons, in the case where someone would be using Telegraf on a system shipped with an IPtables version older than 1.4.20 ? |
