[Squeeze] ip6tables-save syntax

[Kees de Jong <keesdejong@gmail.com>]

Hi,




I'm running Debian Squeeze and I want to save my ip6table configuration with the iptables-persistent tool.
To save an ipv4 table I use 'iptables-save > /etc/iptables/rules', the configuration file 'rules' is already there for the use of ipv4.
But there is no ipv6 config file, so I don't know what the correct syntax is of the ipv6 configuration file when I want to save it with ip6tables-save.
In Debian Testing there are respective defaults for ipv4 and ipv6 in the tool iptables-persistent named: rules.v4 and rules.v6

Can someone point me to the correct syntax of the file? So that ip6tables is restored on a cold start in a proper way.
An entry like 'ip6tables-restore < /etc/iptables/rules6' in /etc/rc.local would be an ugly solution.
