Firewall Luci weird message running MT600 4.9op24

[orai_channel]

hi , sorry for disturbing you

maybe it´s a naïve question. I was wondering if you could, please, helping me about what I describe below. and what I could do to fix the message I show you in the attacheched in the screenshot where firewall Luci prompted it running MT600 4.9op24 , last June version

it is a clean install and I did not touch the firewall table while I was setting the router

The strange thing is that it is a clean installation where:

1-install 4.8.3op24 without saving previous configuration

2-I performed the configuration from scratch on 4.8.3op24

3-I upgraded to 4.8.9op24 firmaware for the month of June.

In this case I kept the settings of the previous version 4.8.3op24

4-In no case did I make changes to the firewall tables

5- the router was put online only when 4.8.9op24 was prepared I was wondering if you could please advise me on what to do in this case I think it is that no time modifies the tables

thanks a lot

This message is normal you can ignore it, it is because the vpn software uses iptables, newer OpenWrt moved to nftables.

Basically the message tells you, you are running under a compatible mode, but often is not advised to run both nftables and iptables because luci does not track iptables and bypasses the firewall.

This is true only for glinet version right? The vanilla openwrt apps have all moved to nftables long back?

Most of the time yes, however docker still uses iptables maybe they recently changed it, however OpenWrt then uses a wrapper which translates iptables into nftables.
