Redirect it to a file:
iptables-save > target-file

You will also need to set it up to restore the rules from the file during 
bootup. This is done, iirc, by running
iptables-restore < target-file
That can be done in /etc/network/interfaces, but there is a particular syntax 
which escapes me at the moment.
