| Doc Text: |
Due to SELinux policy rules, certain iptables commands such as "iptables-save" or "iptables -L" were unable to write to files with output redirection. With this update, the SELinux domain transition from "unconfined_t" to the "iptables_t" domain has been removed, and such commands now work as expected.
