Hi

As we know iptables INVALID state means, that
the packet is associated with no known connection,

right? So, if I have a lot of INVALID entries in my
log files, does it means, that something is wrong?
Hidden process etc.?

Just to be sure

"... INVALID meaning that the packet could not be identified for some reason

which includes running out of memory"

Enough free RAM in that box?
