Yeah except it would be iptables-restore < old_fw_rules.bak
Fun fact: When you do iptables-save, you have to redirect the output if you want to save it to a file. But when you use iptables-restore, you don't need to pipe it back in, you can just use the filename!
It wasn't always that way. At one time you had to so I still do.
Totally! I still catch myself doing that sometimes. Old habits die hard
