bftables and scripts question

[ToddAndMargo <ToddAndMargo@zoho.com>]

Hi All,

I am currently using iptables but and starting the process
of learning nftables.

Question.  My iptables are in a bash programs (scripts).

For instance:

if [ "$enable_rdp" = "yes" ]; then
    # Warning: this user is given access to SYN's
    # rdp is M$ Terminal Services
    <lots of iptables>
    logger -p user.notice -t firewall "Firewall external rules warning: 
$ts_server (Terminal Server) accepts SYN's on Port $rdp_port"
fi

Will nftables work the same way?

And, will the converters also roll over the bash code?

Many thanks,
-T
