CompTIA Linux+ XK0-006 (V8) Practice Question

Your organization's Linux firewall uses legacy iptables rules on a 5.x kernel. You have been asked to forward (port-forward) all HTTPS traffic arriving on eth0 (TCP 443) to an internal web server at 10.0.1.10. The new destination address must be applied before the kernel makes its routing decision so that subsequent filter rules and connection tracking view the packets as addressed to the private host. In which built-in Netfilter chain and table should you place the DNAT rule to meet this requirement?

  • FORWARD chain in the filter table

  • INPUT chain in the mangle table

  • PREROUTING chain in the nat table

  • POSTROUTING chain in the nat table
