Abstract
iptables is the most recent entry in a series of Linux firewall services. Because iptables is a security product in widespread use, correctness and performance are important issues. We present a methodology for iptables regression testing. Typically, correctness test suites generate test inputs and then log the observed output to a file. Log files from the first execution are manually checked for correctness and then compared to the results from subsequent test runs with a file differencing utility. The log files tend to be large; checking their correctness is tedious and error-prone. In contrast, we generate test traffic and verify the correctness of the iptables behaviour from the same program, eliminating the need for log files. We also present performance test results, focusing on throughput and delay as a function of the size of the iptables rule base. The measurements were conducted over Ethernet links running at 10, 100, and 1,000 Mbps.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
