This article illustrates the use of the CentOS firewall as an example. I will share it with you for your reference as follows:

Close:


/etc/init.d/iptables stop

Open:


/etc/init.d/iptables start

Resume:


/etc/init.d/iptables restart

To view:


/etc/init.d/iptables status

Save:


/etc/init.d/iptables save

Open port 8080:


/sbin/iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 8080 -j ACCEPT

Delete - D

The rule will block packets from a particular IP range


# iptables -t filter -A INPUT -s 123.456.789.0/24 -j DROP

It is also very easy to block all packets going to the attacker's IP address. This command is slightly different:


# iptables -t filter -A OUTPUT -d 123.456.789.0/24 -j DROP

I hope this article has helped you with your CentOS server maintenance.
