System and Network configuration • IPTABLES HELP

I am setting up iptables on a Raspberry Pi with Bookworm (Debian 12)
I've never done this before.
I am doing this to teach High School Computer Science students and for myself.

There are a lot of tutorials online and I have read and tried to apply some of the tutorials.
I've read : https://wiki.debian.org/iptables
and notice it does not reference netfilter-persistent
I reference this post viewtopic.php?t=158592

I installed iptables and I get the following:
# systemctl status iptables
Unit iptables.service could not be found.


Do I need to install :
netfilter-persistent along with iptables?
ipset-persistent - boot-time loader for netfilter rules, ipset plugin
iptables-persistent - boot-time loader for netfilter rules, iptables plugin
netfilter-persistent - boot-time loader for netfilter configuration

Or what do I need to install to implement iptables?
along with iptables.

Please post an example of a solid tutorial that works.
