Linux: 20 Iptables Examples For New SysAdmins
Linux comes with a host based firewall called Netfilter. According to the official project site:
netfilter is a set of hooks inside the Linux kernel that allows kernel modules to register callback functions with the network stack. A registered callback function is then called back for every packet that traverses the respective hook within the network stack.
This Linux based firewall is controlled by the program called iptables to handles filtering for IPv4, and ip6tables handles filtering for IPv6. I strongly recommend that you first read our quick tutorial that explains how to configure a host-based firewall called Netfilter (iptables) under CentOS / RHEL / Fedora / Redhat Enterprise Linux. This post list most common iptables solutions required by a new Linux user to secure his or her Linux operating system from intruders.
IPTABLES Rules Example
- Most of the actions listed in this post are written with the assumption that they will be executed by the root user running the bash or any other modern shell. Do not type commands on remote system as it will disconnect your access.
- For demonstration purpose I've used RHEL 6.x, but the following command should work with any modern Linux distro.
- This is NOT a tutorial on how to set iptables. See tutorial here. It is a quick cheat sheet to common iptables commands.
#1: Displaying the Status of Your Firewall
Type the following command as root:
# iptables -L -n -v
Sample outputs:
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 0 packets, 0 bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
Above output indicates that the firewall is not active. The following sample shows an active firewall:
# iptables -L -n -v
Sample outputs:
Chain INPUT (policy DROP 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
0 0 DROP all -- * * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state INVALID
394 43586 ACCEPT all -- * * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
93 17292 ACCEPT all -- br0 * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0
1 142 ACCEPT all -- lo * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0
Chain FORWARD (policy DROP 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
0 0 ACCEPT all -- br0 br0 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0
0 0 DROP all -- * * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state INVALID
0 0 TCPMSS tcp -- * * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 tcp flags:0x06/0x02 TCPMSS clamp to PMTU
0 0 ACCEPT all -- * * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state RELATED,ESTABLISHED
0 0 wanin all -- vlan2 * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0
0 0 wanout all -- * vlan2 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0
0 0 ACCEPT all -- br0 * 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 425 packets, 113K bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
Chain wanin (1 references)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
Chain wanout (1 references)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
Where,
- -L : List rules.
- -v : Display detailed information. This option makes the list command show the interface name, the rule options, and the TOS masks. The packet and byte counters are also listed, with the suffix 'K', 'M' or 'G' for 1000, 1,000,000 and 1,000,000,000 multipliers respectively.
- -n : Display IP address and port in numeric format. Do not use DNS to resolve names. This will speed up listing.
#1.1: To inspect firewall with line numbers, enter:
# iptables -n -L -v --line-numbers
Sample outputs:
Chain INPUT (policy DROP) num target prot opt source destination 1 DROP all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state INVALID 2 ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state RELATED,ESTABLISHED 3 ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 4 ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 Chain FORWARD (policy DROP) num target prot opt source destination 1 ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 2 DROP all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state INVALID 3 TCPMSS tcp -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 tcp flags:0x06/0x02 TCPMSS clamp to PMTU 4 ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state RELATED,ESTABLISHED 5 wanin all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 6 wanout all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 7 ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT) num target prot opt source destination Chain wanin (1 references) num target prot opt source destination Chain wanout (1 references) num target prot opt source destination
You can use line numbers to delete or insert new rules into the firewall.
#1.2: To display INPUT or OUTPUT chain rules, enter:
# iptables -L INPUT -n -v
# iptables -L OUTPUT -n -v --line-numbers
#2: Stop / Start / Restart the Firewall
If you are using CentOS / RHEL / Fedora Linux, enter:
# service iptables stop
# service iptables start
# service iptables restart
You can use the iptables command itself to stop the firewall and delete all rules:
# iptables -F
# iptables -X
# iptables -t nat -F
# iptables -t nat -X
# iptables -t mangle -F
# iptables -t mangle -X
# iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT
# iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
# iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
Where,
- -F : Deleting (flushing) all the rules.
- -X : Delete chain.
- -t table_name : Select table (called nat or mangle) and delete/flush rules.
- -P : Set the default policy (such as DROP, REJECT, or ACCEPT).
#3: Delete Firewall Rules
To display line number along with other information for existing rules, enter:
# iptables -L INPUT -n --line-numbers
# iptables -L OUTPUT -n --line-numbers
# iptables -L OUTPUT -n --line-numbers | less
# iptables -L OUTPUT -n --line-numbers | grep 202.54.1.1
You will get the list of IP. Look at the number on the left, then use number to delete it. For example delete line number 4, enter:
# iptables -D INPUT 4
OR find source IP 202.54.1.1 and delete from rule:
# iptables -D INPUT -s 202.54.1.1 -j DROP
Where,
- -D : Delete one or more rules from the selected chain
#4: Insert Firewall Rules
To insert one or more rules in the selected chain as the given rule number use the following syntax. First find out line numbers, enter:
# iptables -L INPUT -n --line-numbers
Sample outputs:
Chain INPUT (policy DROP) num target prot opt source destination 1 DROP all -- 202.54.1.1 0.0.0.0/0 2 ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state NEW,ESTABLISHED
To insert rule between 1 and 2, enter:
# iptables -I INPUT 2 -s 202.54.1.2 -j DROP
To view updated rules, enter:
# iptables -L INPUT -n --line-numbers
Sample outputs:
Chain INPUT (policy DROP) num target prot opt source destination 1 DROP all -- 202.54.1.1 0.0.0.0/0 2 DROP all -- 202.54.1.2 0.0.0.0/0 3 ACCEPT all -- 0.0.0.0/0 0.0.0.0/0 state NEW,ESTABLISHED
#5: Save Firewall Rules
To save firewall rules under CentOS / RHEL / Fedora Linux, enter:
# service iptables save
In this example, drop an IP and save firewall rules:
# iptables -A INPUT -s 202.5.4.1 -j DROP
# service iptables save
For all other distros use the iptables-save command:
# iptables-save > /root/my.active.firewall.rules
# cat /root/my.active.firewall.rules
#6: Restore Firewall Rules
To restore firewall rules form a file called /root/my.active.firewall.rules, enter:
# iptables-restore < /root/my.active.firewall.rules
To restore firewall rules under CentOS / RHEL / Fedora Linux, enter:
# service iptables restart
#7: Set the Default Firewall Policies
To drop all traffic:
# iptables -P INPUT DROP
# iptables -P OUTPUT DROP
# iptables -P FORWARD DROP
# iptables -L -v -n
#### you will not able to connect anywhere as all traffic is dropped ###
# ping cyberciti.biz
# wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/testing/linux-3.2-rc5.tar.bz2
#7.1: Only Block Incoming Traffic
To drop all incoming / forwarded packets, but allow outgoing traffic, enter:
# iptables -P INPUT DROP
# iptables -P FORWARD DROP
# iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
# iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT
# iptables -L -v -n
### *** now ping and wget should work *** ###
# ping cyberciti.biz
# wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.0/testing/linux-3.2-rc5.tar.bz2
#8:Drop Private Network Address On Public Interface
IP spoofing is nothing but to stop the following IPv4 address ranges for private networks on your public interfaces. Packets with non-routable source addresses should be rejected using the following syntax:
# iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j DROP
# iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -s 10.0.0.0/8 -j DROP
#8.1: IPv4 Address Ranges For Private Networks (make sure you block them on public interface)
- 10.0.0.0/8 -j (A)
- 172.16.0.0/12 (B)
- 192.168.0.0/16 (C)
- 224.0.0.0/4 (MULTICAST D)
- 240.0.0.0/5 (E)
- 127.0.0.0/8 (LOOPBACK)
#9: Blocking an IP Address (BLOCK IP)
To block an attackers ip address called 1.2.3.4, enter:
# iptables -A INPUT -s 1.2.3.4 -j DROP
# iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.0.0/24 -j DROP
#10: Block Incoming Port Requests (BLOCK PORT)
To block all service requests on port 80, enter:
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j DROP
# iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -p tcp --dport 80 -j DROP
To block port 80 only for an ip address 1.2.3.4, enter:
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -s 1.2.3.4 --dport 80 -j DROP
# iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -p tcp -s 192.168.1.0/24 --dport 80 -j DROP
#11: Block Outgoing IP Address
To block outgoing traffic to a particular host or domain such as cyberciti.biz, enter:
# host -t a cyberciti.biz
Sample outputs:
cyberciti.biz has address 75.126.153.206
Note down its ip address and type the following to block all outgoing traffic to 75.126.153.206:
# iptables -A OUTPUT -d 75.126.153.206 -j DROP
You can use a subnet as follows:
# iptables -A OUTPUT -d 192.168.1.0/24 -j DROP
# iptables -A OUTPUT -o eth1 -d 192.168.1.0/24 -j DROP
#11.1: Example - Block Facebook.com Domain
First, find out all ip address of facebook.com, enter:
# host -t a www.facebook.com
Sample outputs:
www.facebook.com has address 69.171.228.40
Find CIDR for 69.171.228.40, enter:
# whois 69.171.228.40 | grep CIDR
Sample outputs:
CIDR: 69.171.224.0/19
To prevent outgoing access to www.facebook.com, enter:
# iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -d 69.171.224.0/19 -j DROP
You can also use domain name, enter:
# iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -d www.facebook.com -j DROP
# iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp -d facebook.com -j DROP
From the iptables man page:
... specifying any name to be resolved with a remote query such as DNS (e.g., facebook.com is a really bad idea), a network IP address (with /mask), or a plain IP address ...
#12: Log and Drop Packets
Type the following to log and block IP spoofing on public interface called eth1
# iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -s 10.0.0.0/8 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP_SPOOF A: "
# iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -s 10.0.0.0/8 -j DROP
By default everything is logged to /var/log/messages file.
# tail -f /var/log/messages
# grep --color 'IP SPOOF' /var/log/messages
#13: Log and Drop Packets with Limited Number of Log Entries
The -m limit module can limit the number of log entries created per time. This is used to prevent flooding your log file. To log and drop spoofing per 5 minutes, in bursts of at most 7 entries .
# iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -s 10.0.0.0/8 -m limit --limit 5/m --limit-burst 7 -j LOG --log-prefix "IP_SPOOF A: "
# iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -s 10.0.0.0/8 -j DROP
#14: Drop or Accept Traffic From Mac Address
Use the following syntax:
# iptables -A INPUT -m mac --mac-source 00:0F:EA:91:04:08 -j DROP
## *only accept traffic for TCP port # 8080 from mac 00:0F:EA:91:04:07 * ##
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 22 -m mac --mac-source 00:0F:EA:91:04:07 -j ACCEPT
#15: Block or Allow ICMP Ping Request
Type the following command to block ICMP ping requests:
# iptables -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type echo-request -j DROP
# iptables -A INPUT -i eth1 -p icmp --icmp-type echo-request -j DROP
Ping responses can also be limited to certain networks or hosts:
# iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -p icmp --icmp-type echo-request -j ACCEPT
The following only accepts limited type of ICMP requests:
### ** assumed that default INPUT policy set to DROP ** #############
iptables -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type echo-reply -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type destination-unreachable -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type time-exceeded -j ACCEPT
## ** all our server to respond to pings ** ##
iptables -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type echo-request -j ACCEPT
#16: Open Range of Ports
Use the following syntax to open a range of ports:
iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 7000:7010 -j ACCEPT
#17: Open Range of IP Addresses
Use the following syntax to open a range of IP address:
## only accept connection to tcp port 80 (Apache) if ip is between 192.168.1.100 and 192.168.1.200 ##
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 80 -m iprange --src-range 192.168.1.100-192.168.1.200 -j ACCEPT
## nat example ##
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j SNAT --to-source 192.168.1.20-192.168.1.25
#18: Established Connections and Restaring The Firewall
When you restart the iptables service it will drop established connections as it unload modules from the system under RHEL / Fedora / CentOS Linux. Edit, /etc/sysconfig/iptables-config and set IPTABLES_MODULES_UNLOAD as follows:
IPTABLES_MODULES_UNLOAD = no
#19: Help Iptables Flooding My Server Screen
Use the crit log level to send messages to a log file instead of console:
iptables -A INPUT -s 1.2.3.4 -p tcp --destination-port 80 -j LOG --log-level crit
#20: Block or Open Common Ports
The following shows syntax for opening and closing common TCP and UDP ports:
Replace ACCEPT with DROP to block port: ## open port ssh tcp port 22 ## iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -m tcp -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 22 -j ACCEPT ## open cups (printing service) udp/tcp port 631 for LAN users ## iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -p udp -m udp --dport 631 -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 631 -j ACCEPT ## allow time sync via NTP for lan users (open udp port 123) ## iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -m state --state NEW -p udp --dport 123 -j ACCEPT ## open tcp port 25 (smtp) for all ## iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 25 -j ACCEPT # open dns server ports for all ## iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -p udp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 53 -j ACCEPT ## open http/https (Apache) server port to all ## iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 443 -j ACCEPT ## open tcp port 110 (pop3) for all ## iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 110 -j ACCEPT ## open tcp port 143 (imap) for all ## iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 143 -j ACCEPT ## open access to Samba file server for lan users only ## iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 137 -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 138 -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 139 -j ACCEPT iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 445 -j ACCEPT ## open access to proxy server for lan users only ## iptables -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.0/24 -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 3128 -j ACCEPT ## open access to mysql server for lan users only ## iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 3306 -j ACCEPT
#21: Restrict the Number of Parallel Connections To a Server Per Client IP
You can use connlimit module to put such restrictions. To allow 3 ssh connections per client host, enter:
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --syn --dport 22 -m connlimit --connlimit-above 3 -j REJECT
Set HTTP requests to 20:
# iptables -p tcp --syn --dport 80 -m connlimit --connlimit-above 20 --connlimit-mask 24 -j DROP
Where,
- --connlimit-above 3 : Match if the number of existing connections is above 3.
- --connlimit-mask 24 : Group hosts using the prefix length. For IPv4, this must be a number between (including) 0 and 32.
#22: HowTO: Use iptables Like a Pro
For more information about iptables, please see the manual page by typing man iptables from the command line:
$ man iptables
You can see the help using the following syntax too:
# iptables -h
To see help with specific commands and targets, enter:
# iptables -j DROP -h
#22.1: Testing Your Firewall
Find out if ports are open or not, enter:
# netstat -tulpn
Find out if tcp port 80 open or not, enter:
# netstat -tulpn | grep :80
If port 80 is not open, start the Apache, enter:
# service httpd start
Make sure iptables allowing access to the port 80:
# iptables -L INPUT -v -n | grep 80
Otherwise open port 80 using the iptables for all users:
# iptables -A INPUT -m state --state NEW -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
# service iptables save
Use the telnet command to see if firewall allows to connect to port 80:
$ telnet www.cyberciti.biz 80
Sample outputs:
Trying 75.126.153.206... Connected to www.cyberciti.biz. Escape character is '^]'. ^] telnet> quit Connection closed.
You can use nmap to probe your own server using the following syntax:
$ nmap -sS -p 80 www.cyberciti.biz
Sample outputs:
Starting Nmap 5.00 ( http://nmap.org ) at 2011-12-13 13:19 IST Interesting ports on www.cyberciti.biz (75.126.153.206): PORT STATE SERVICE 80/tcp open http Nmap done: 1 IP address (1 host up) scanned in 1.00 seconds
I also recommend you install and use sniffer such as tcpdupm and ngrep to test your firewall settings.
Conclusion:
This post only list basic rules for new Linux users. You can create and build more complex rules. This requires good understanding of TCP/IP, Linux kernel tuning via sysctl.conf, and good knowledge of your own setup. Stay tuned for next topics:
- Stateful packet inspection.
- Using connection tracking helpers.
- Network address translation.
- Layer 2 filtering.
- Firewall testing tools.
- Dealing with VPNs, DNS, Web, Proxy, and other protocols.
