The attached patch fixes a problem due to the mac match in iptables only supporting --mac-source and no --mac-destination, thus it not being symmetric. Therefore a rule like this one
<rule action='drop' direction='out'> <all match='no' srcmacaddr='$MAC'/> </rule>
should only have the MAC match on traffic leaving the VM and not test for the same source MAC address on traffic that the VM receives.

Okay, I had to check _iptablesCreateRuleInstance() source to find out it's a giant switch, then patch makes sense, looks low risk and well contained,
ACK,
Thanks. Pushed. Stefan
