Ubuntu 16.04.2
In a book I read that we need iptables-persistent.
The book was published in 2016.
Ok:
sudo apt install -y iptables-persistent
Everything installed. No problems so far. If I reboot the computer, iptables is still here.
Then in the book I read:
sudo service iptables-persistent start.
And I get this:
Failed to start iptables-persistent.service: Unit iptables-persistent.service not found.
Could you comment: is it acceptable behavior for Ubuntu 16.04.2?

It seems since Ubuntu 16.04, iptables-persistent has been replaced by netfilter-persistent. The package still exist and automatically install netfilter-persistent thanks to a dependancy. It's possible to use the following command to start the firewall.
sudo service netfilter-persistent start
