I prefer the term 'service' over daemon for iptables.

Here is something similar on Debian:

# /etc/init.d/iptables 
/etc/init.d/iptables options:
  start|restart|reload|force-reload
     load the "active" ruleset
  save <ruleset>
     save the current ruleset
  load <ruleset>
     load a ruleset
  stop
     load the "inactive" ruleset
  clear
     remove all rules and user-defined chains, set default policy to
ACCEPT
  halt
     remove all rules and user-defined chains, set default policy to
DROP

Saved ruleset locations: /var/lib/iptables/ and /var/lib/ip6tables/
