IPTABLES -L OPTION NOT SHOWING SNAT RULE

Question

I am able to get NAT to work using the following snat rule:

    iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o em2 -j SNAT --to 192.168.2.2

My question is: Why is this rule not displayed when I issue the command:

   iptables -L

or even

   iptables -L -v

iptables -L -t nat is what you're looking for.

As you specify the table when you add the rule, you have to specify it to see it.

Is there any way to list ALL rules? – Sunny Apr 28 '15 at 03:14
@Samir Sure. There are 5 tables (filter,nat,mangle,raw,security). You call `iptables -L -t table` for each. ;-) – Fox Apr 28 '15 at 08:55
