+Like with iptables, wildcard matching on interface name prefixes is available for
|
||
|
|
+*iifname* and *oifname* matches by appending an asterisk (*) character. Note
|
||
|
|
+however that unlike iptables, nftables does not accept interface names
|
||
|
|
+consisting of the wildcard character only - users are supposed to just skip
|
||
|
|
+those always matching expressions. In order to match on literal asterisk
|
||
|
|
+character, one may escape it using backslash (\).
