iptables#

Commands#

> ls -la /usr/sbin/ip*  # list all commands, there are many
> iptables*             # for ipv4 (in debian busters = nft)
> ip6tables*            # for ipv6 (in debian busters = nft)
> iptables-legacy       # former ones, not nft
> iptables-nft          # directly use nft

Notes:

• all iptables commands (for ipv4) have an ip6tabbles* equivalent (for ipv6)
• see info on nft

Syntax#

see docu

> sudo iptables -L -v 
> sudo iptables -n -v --line-numbers -L 
> sudo service iptables start		# activate firewalling
> sudo service ip6tables start
> sudo chkconfig iptables on		# enable after reboot
> sudo chkconfig ip6tables on

iptables [-t <table-name>] <command> <chain-name> <parameter-1>  <option-1> <parameter-n> <option-n>

• table-name
  • like [filter, nat, mangle, raw, security], if omitted we use "filter"
• comamnd
  • -F : flush current chain or all if omitted
  • -X : deletes a user-specified chain or all if omitted
  • -Z : zeros the byte and packet counters in all chains
  • -A : apppend a rule at the end
  • -I : inserts at a specified position (similar to replace -R), wihtout position at the top
  • -P : a policy is a fall back and is used after all rules have passede** you can enable certain special addresses earlier
  • -L : list all rules
• chain-name
  • INPUT, FORWARD, OUTPUT (as listed with > iptables -L)
  • you may invent new chain names, but this seems not to be common (command -N)
• parameter-1 (filter)
  • -s : source filter (address[/mask][...])
  • -d : destination filter
  • -p : protocoll filter like [icmp, tcp, udp, all] or those in /etc/protocols, if omitted ALL protocols are considered
    • with -p tcp you can use --dport for destination port filter, any number
    • with -p udp you can use --dport for destination port and --sport as source port filter
    • ports can be also a range like 3000:3200 (all from 3000 to 3200)
    • with -p icmp you can use --icmp-type
  • -i : interface like [eth0, lo, ppp0], without name ALL interfaces are used
  • -j : jump to [ACCEPT, DROP, QUEUE, RETURN] (or others added with modules)
  • -m : adds a comment when listing the rules, syntax >-m comment --comment "My comments here"<
• option-1 (target)
  • [ACCEPT, DROP, QUEUE, RETURN] (or others added with modules)
• option-n (listing options)
  • -v : verbose output
  • -n : displays IP addresses and port numbers in numeric format instead of hostname/network service
• notes
  • the first three commands are usually used to create a fresh ruleset in a script
  • in the chain list and then drop all other later

Python#

• package "python3-iptables" manages legacy ones only, docu1, docu2
• package "python3-nftables" manages nft tables
• alternatively you can use subprocess.run to call the original system commands

nfttables#

> sudo apt-get install python3-nftables

import nftables
