iptables - simulate packet loss for a specific ip address

Question

I've read about statistic module that can help simulate packet loss:

iptables -A INPUT -m statistic --mode random --probability 0.1 -j DROP

But is it possible to do that not for all incoming connections, but for a specific IP address?

Answer 1

You can specify the source IP address in the rule:

iptables -A INPUT -s <SOURCE_IP_ADDRESS> -m statistic --mode random --probability 0.1 -j DROP
