The three valid iptables chains are INPUT, OUTPUT, and FORWARD. The INPUT chain is used to control the incoming traffic to the local system, the OUTPUT chain manages the outgoing traffic from the local system, and the FORWARD chain is utilized for traffic that is being routed through the system to another destination. These chains allow for fine-grained control over network packet filtering and management.

The iptables --replace command is used to replace an existing rule in a specified chain of the iptables firewall configuration without having to delete and re-add the rule. It takes the rule number as an argument, effectively updating the rule at that position with a new specification. This command helps streamline firewall management by allowing modifications to existing rules while maintaining their order in the chain.
Iptables was created in 1998.
