        <pre>One of the many ebtables oddities:

| ebtables -D FORWARD 3:

is supposed to delete the third and all following rules in FORWARD chain.

delete_entry() in xtables-eb.c is not aware of this, though. In practice, the
code will only add a single rule delete command to the list, namely for the
start interval one.

Simple reproducer:

| ebtables -A FORWARD -j RETURN
| ebtables -A FORWARD -j RETURN
| ebtables -A FORWARD -j RETURN
| ebtables -D FORWARD 2:
| [[ $(ebtables -L FORWARD | grep -c RETURN) -eq 1 ]] || echo "fail"</pre>
