A Sample Firewall Configuration
A Sample Firewall Configuration
We've discussed the fundamentals of firewall configuration. Let's now look at what a firewall configuration might actually look like.
The configuration in this example has been designed to be easily extended and customized. We've provided three versions. The first version is implemented using the ipfwadm command (or the ipfwadm-wrapper script), the second uses ipchains, and the third uses iptables. The example doesn't attempt to exploit user-defined chains, but it will show you the similarities and differences between the old and new firewall configuration tool syntaxes:
#!/bin/bash

# end.
In our iptables example, we've switched to using the FORWARD ruleset because of the difference in meaning of the INPUT ruleset in the netfilter implementation. This has implications for us; it means that none of the rules protect the firewall host itself. To accurately mimic our ipchains example, we would replicate each of our rules in the INPUT chain. For clarity, we've dropped all incoming datagrams received from our outside interface instead.

In many simple situations, to use the sample all you have to do is edit the top section of the file labeled "USER CONFIGURABLE section" to specify which protocols and datagrams type you wish to allow in and out. For more complex configurations, you will need to edit the section at the bottom, as well. Remember, this is a simple example, so scrutinize it very carefully to ensure it does what you want while implementing it.
