My questions is that after I use the script /etc/rc.d/init.d/iptables
save, the result is 

1)the file /etc/sysconfig/iptables is correctly completed 
2)the script create a new file in this directory named iptables.save

The firewall is correctly configured my questions is:
because the script make a copy of iptables and call it iptables.save?

Thanks
