iptables : what is wrong with this iptables rule?

Question

I am running this command :

iptables -A http_flood -m hashlimit --hashlimit 1/sec --hashlimit-burst 3 --hashlimit-mode dstip,dstport,srcport --hashlimit-name hosts -j MARK --set-mark 0xf100

And getting this error:

iptables: Unknown error 4294967295

Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Taken from man page of iptables:

MARK This is used to set the netfilter mark value associated with the packet. It is only valid in the mangle table. It can for example be used in conjunction with iproute2.
