Hi Dave,

system-config-securitylevel updates the /etc/sysconfig/iptables file. It
will show you your current state when you start the app, and any changes
you make will be saved to the file as well as affect your firewall state.

If you were already editing rules by hand, then it is probably best to
continue that way. You can also have a look at what Ford mentioned for
more complex needs.

Best of luck.
