IMSCP Firewall

  • Hello,


    Is there any link between the "Service ports" page, and the firewall of the system?
    I see that, when looking at the system's iptables, the ports listed in the "Service ports" page are present.
    When I change the listening IP address for a port, nothing changes though, the port stays open on all IP addresses
    for on the server.


    For security reasons, I need to close all ports except the https and http ones on all IP addresses but one.
    Is there a way to do it directly from the IMSCP config panel or via IMSCP config - without the risk of a later conflict or of the configuration
    getting reset, or do I have to tweak the iptables myself?


    Thanks!

    There is no firewall manager in i-MSCP. The service ports interface show you the service statuses only. For the iptables part, i-MSCP setup a set of rules only to compute traffic.

  • Ok, thanks.
    Si if I configure the IPTABLES to block certain ports on some of my IP Addresses, it should not interfere with anything, right?


    Why is it possible to change the IP Address on the Service port page if it has no effect? It can be a little misleading.
