Assume you LAN IP is on network 192.168.0.0: Your first line in IPTables would be - -A INPUT -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j ACCEPT Don't try to do it with device matching which could be problematic. HOWEVER, you might want to create some statements with MAC matching to preclude spoofing. BTW, webmin provides a very good GUI to IPTables which might help you get started. To eliminate the Webmin crutch, you need to review /etc/sysconfig/iptables to see exactly what commands are being offered to IPT. -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:redhat-list-request@xxxxxxxxxx?subject=unsubscribe https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
