Fixed In Version: iptables-1.4.21-18.2.el7_4 Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
Previously, when stopping iptables or ip6tables services, a script tried to unload the netfilter modules related to the given address family. Since there were modules that both address families used, a potential race condition created when both services restarted simultaneously. This update adds the AFTER and BEFORE keywords in the service files. As a result, both services run in sequence, and "systemctl restart iptables ip6tables" works as expected.
