<title>Description</title>
<para>This file allows you to define new ACTIONS for use in rules (see
<ulink url="shorewall-rules.html">shorewall-rules(5)</ulink>). You define
the iptables rules to be performed in an ACTION in
/etc/shorewall/action.<emphasis>action-name</emphasis>.</para>
<para>Columns are:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>NAME</term>
<listitem>
<para>The name of the action. ACTION names should begin with an
upper-case letter to distinguish them from Shorewall-generated chain
names and be composed of letters, digits or numbers. If you intend
to log from the action then the name must be no longer than 11
characters in length if you use the standard LOGFORMAT.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>OPTIONS</term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 4.5.10. Available actions are:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>inline</term>
<listitem>
<para>Causes the action body (defined in
action.<replaceable>action-name</replaceable>) to be expanded
in-line like a macro rather than in its own chain. You can
list Shorewall Standard Actions in this file to specify the
<option>inline</option> option.</para>
<caution>
<para>Some of the Shorewall standard actions cannot be used
in-line and will generate a compiler error if you try to use
them that way:</para>
