Description Florian Best

univention-firewall is based on iptables.
iptables is deprecated in at least Debian 12, the package descriptions says:

Description: administration tools for packet filtering and NAT
 The iptables/xtables framework has been replaced by nftables. You should
 consider migrating now.

→ univention-firewall should be based on a alternative.
