IP Tables State (iptstate) was originally written to implement the "state top" feature of IP Filter in IP Tables. "State top" displays the states held by your stateful firewall in a top-like manner. Since IP Tables doesn't have a built in way to easily display this information even once, an option was added to just have it display the state table once. Features include: - Top-like realtime state table information - Sorting by any field - Reversible sorting - Single display of state table - Customizable refresh rate - Display filtering - Color-coding - Open Source - much more...
