Hmm . . .looks a little strange. Do you want such access for this
specific device or for other devices on the internal network that use
this device as a gateway? The INPUT and OUTPUT chains will only handle
traffic to and from this device.
I would suggest you use connection tracking and you may find it easier
to use DROP policies. Thus:
$IPT -t filter -P INPUT DROP
$IPT -t filter -P OUTPUT DROP
$IPT -t filter -P FORWARD DROP
$IPT -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
Then you can allow the outbound access including the protcol:
while read s1 s2
do
$IPT -t filter -A OUTPUT -s $INNET -d $s1 -p 6 --dport 80 -j
ACCEPT
$IPT -t filter -A OUTPUT -p icmp -s $INNET -d $s1 -j ACCEPT
done < /allowed-hosts
If you want to allow other devices to access these sites through this
device, you will need rules in the FORWARD chain and probably an SNAT
rule in the nat table POSTROUTING chain. Good luck - John
