Hi * I just try setup firewall. Config is following: Desktop Firewll (192.168.1.1) ------Eth0 Eth1(91.189.74.10)---------ISP Script below is working OK for all LAN hosts, but not for for firewall PC itself (i tested it with i.e. ping www.ibm.com) Commenting line "iptables -P INPUT DROP" allows to ping from firewall, but it effectivelly turning off firewall.... It is probably simple error - but I can't find where it is... Can somebody verify thid script and tell me what is wrong ? thx in advance #Config area BEGIN-------------------------------------------------------------- LAN_intf=eth0 LAN_subnetwork=192.168.1.0/255.255.255.0 WAN_intf=eth1 WAN_ip=91.189.74.10 Open_WAN_TCP_ports=20,21,80,500,1352,4500 Open_WAN_UDP_ports=500,1352,4500,5060 Open_WAN_RTP_port_range=7070:7080 #Config area END---------------------------------------------------------------- #--Flushing all iptables tables------------------------------------------------- iptables -F iptables -X iptables -t nat -F iptables -t nat -X iptables -t mangle -F iptables -t mangle -X #--Setting up SNAT for outgoing to WAN DATA connections------------------------ iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s $LAN_subnetwork -o $WAN_intf -j SNAT --to-source $WAN_ip #--Allowing self access by loopback interface---------------------------------- iptables -A INPUT -i lo -p all -j ACCEPT #--Allowing local access to LAN------------------------------------------------ iptables -A INPUT -i $LAN_intf -p all -j ACCEPT #--Allowing WAN incoming traffic form already established connections---------- iptables -A INPUT -i WAN_intf -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT #--Allowing WAN incoming traffic for desired services-------------------------- #Open WAN TCP ports iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -i $WAN_intf -m multiport --dport $Open_WAN_TCP_ports -j ACCEPT #Open WAN UDP ports iptables -A INPUT -p udp -i $WAN_intf -m multiport --dport $Open_WAN_UDP_ports -j ACCEPT #Open VoIP UDP port ranges iptables -A INPUT -p udp -i $WAN_intf --dport $Open_WAN_RTP_port_range -j ACCEPT #--Drop all other incoming connection.
