Hi folks,

I want to use ip table in my build. But, whenever I am trying to use the ip table it is not working.
It is throwing an error :

modprobe: FATAL: Module ip_tables not found. iptables v1.4.21: can't initialize iptables table `filter': Table does not exist (do you need to insmod?) Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded.

I am not getting anything specific to solve this error over the internet.
So help me out in solving this error.
Any help is highly appreciated.

Thank You.

What does lsmod say?

Which board are you working on and what OS?

Hi Dave,
OS is ubuntu.
ismod is not working here.
It is limited os with only required commands and features.

lsmod, ie list modules ... not ismod

OK, lsmod was not helpful.

You didn't say which board you are working on. Also, I don't recall of anyone running Ubuntu on these boards. I ran Debian Jessie on the NanoPi for a year or so.

Have you tried:

sudo apt-get install iptables
