Now that I have a new wireless access point that has no filtering on board, I added iptables rules for the relevant interface on my server. My ADSL modem and the a/p are on one segment that connects to my server on a dedicated interface. The new rules manage this interface. My internal machines are on a separate interface on the same server, and have no restrictions. I noticed that from time to time I get dropped packets arrving from the 'net that I do not expect. They seem to be from *.ytimg.com:443. I do have the usual RELATED,ESTABLISHED rule which is supposed to manage those so why is this not caught (ACCCEPT'ed)? I think that these are packets belonging to a youtube I was watching, which I just closed and it arrived after that action. If so then it is correct to DROP them. Is my understanding correct?
