If the server were compromised, it would then be more difficult for intruders to use the system as a basis for DDOS attacks or coordinated bot activity). For example, you might allow users into your server from the Internet, but also stop them from making unrestrained onward connections. Blocking inbound traffic is more common, but controlling outbound access is also important. The examples above refer to the OUTPUT table, because outbound connections are being controlled. Use the iprange and multiport modules together: # iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m multiport -dports 60000:61000 -m iprange -dst-range 192.168.1.23-192.168.1.63 -m state -state NEW -j ACCEPT Note # iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -m multiport -dports 4000:4049 -dst 192.168.0.23 -m state -state NEW -j ACCEPTĮxample 5. The destination is again a single server, as in Example 1 (“–dst 192.168.0.23”). The “–dport 22” spec is removed, as our port range replaces the single port. Port 22 will not be opened by this rule, but 50 other ports will be, using the multiport module. Instead of allowing just one port (the SSH port, 22), the next example includes a port range. # iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -dport 22 -dst 192.168.1.0/24 -m state -state NEW -j ACCEPT If the goal is to block or allow a whole subnet, you can just use a network spec with the –dst flag, rather than specifying a range. This time the single remote server is replaced with a range of 31 IP addresses, using the iprange module. The local system is then allowed to SSH to the remote server: # iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -dport 22 -dst 192.168.0.23 -m state -state NEW -j ACCEPTĪllow outbound SSH again. Specifying a Single Target Server and Port (no ranges)Īllow outbound access to a single target server (192.168.0.23) on port 22. The follwing examples all apply to the OUTPUT table, but the range syntax is the same whatever table is being configured (INPUT, OUTPUT etc.).Įxample 1. ![]() For example, standaline cloud instances that are not part of a protected VPC infrastructure. Particularly when they do not sit behind another protective network element such as a load balancer or discrete firewall. The Linux firewall (part of the Netfilter project) is important on Internet facing systems, “edge” servers and “jump” boxes. If you are looking to set up a blacklist, perhaps to protect your server from a number of unrelated IP addresses, my related procedure on how to protect your webserver with IPset might be more appropriate. Note: This article is not about blacklisting. Or to open up a range of ports with a single firewall rule. It could be used, for example, to allow SSH traffic from a number of systems. This post explains how to use iptables with a range of IP addresses and/or ports. It is also the tool used for firewall configuration. Iptables is the name of the firewall built into the Linux kernel. ![]()
