That message is normal; there is no error nor anything to fix (unless you want to migrate to firewalld, or something). What has happened is iptables-restore has loaded the firewall rules, and then exited, because after loading the rules it does not need to stick around. This is typical for Type=oneshot services.

[root@redacted ~]# systemctl status iptables

● iptables.service - IPv4 firewall with iptables

   Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/iptables.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)

   Active: active (exited) since Thu 2018-10-04 13:14:52 UTC; 1 weeks 4 days ago

[root@redacted ~]# wc -l /etc/sysconfig/iptables

822 /etc/sysconfig/iptables

[root@redacted ~]# systemctl list-unit-files | grep ipt

iptables.service                              enabled

[root@redacted ~]# systemctl list-unit-files | grep firew

firewalld.service                             disabled

If you peek at /usr/lib/systemd/system/iptables.service it's a wrapper around a shell script that (eventually) calls iptables-restore to load up the firewall rules from /etc/sysconfig/iptables.

(firewalld is something different and may or may not be involved (it is not on the above firewall those commands and their outputs were copied from))
