ipchains A packet-filtering Firewalls supported by Linux distributions

Description A firewall is a basic and essential component of any network security system. ipchains is a packet-filtering firewall for Linux distribution. ipchains does not look at the content of the packet but the header.

Objective Knowing about the packet-filtering firewall working Teach basic firewall scripting and rule definitions

System Requirements & install Linux distribution with kernel version 2.1.x or above. Linux kernel built-in If support ip_tables, its needs Linux distribution with kernel version 2.3.x or above

Challenge Procedure 1. Create shell variables for better scripting 2. Properly secure the firewall script 3. Establish a deny-all policy 4. Allow loopback traffic 5. Allow outbound web traffic 6. Create ingress and egress filters. 7. Restore the default firewall script.

Basic format of an ipchain rule ipchain –A|I chain –i interface [-p protocol] [-s source address [port[:port]]] [-d destination address [port[:port]]] -j action [-l] -A|I: append or insert chain: input, output, forward -p: ICMP, UDP, TCP, all -j: allow, deny, reject -l: log

Step-by-Step (0) pre-scan the local status

Step-by-Step (1) Define variables in firewall.sh

Step-by-Step (2) vi firewall.sh sh firewall.sh

Step-by-Step (3) scan after the firewall open scan by nmap –P0 –sT

Step-by-Step (4) Enable the loopback interface

Step-by-Step (4) rescan the loopback interface

Step-by-Step (5) rescan the loopback interface by an external address

Step-by-Step (5) All for outbound web traffic

Step-by-Step (5) Block inbound packets from private address

Step-by-Step (5) Block outbound packets from private address

Step-by-Step (6) Show the ipchains rule

Step-by-Step (7) Flush the ipchains rule

Summary & what do you learn? Firewalls are one the basic component of network perimeter to determine what traffic should be allowed in or out of the network. A packet-filtering firewall make it blocking decisions based on the data contained in the packet header.
