The output for the iptables -L -t nat is as follows:

Chain PREROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain POSTROUTING (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT)
target     prot opt source               destination

The output of iptables -L -t mangle is as follows:

iptables: libiptc/libip4tc.c:380: do_check: Assertion
`h->info.valid_hooks == (1 << 0 | 1 << 3)' failed.
It also gave me segmentation fault and core was dumped.

Also,  other machines are trying to ping me through my ip address
only. But they are on different subnet than mine. They are on 192
network.
