iptables Example

The networking lab, CSB 315, has a strict firewall between it and the rest of the CS Department network.

This is implemented via the iptables command.

Variables

The script starts with a number of variable definitions:

# CS Dept Back-Bone
CSNET_IF="em1"			# local interface

# Security Lab
SLAB_IF="p7p1"			# local interface
SLAB_IP="192.168.110.1"		# local IP address
SLAB_AR="192.168.110.0/24"	# address range

UNPRIVPORTS="1024:65535"	# unprivileged port range

SSH_PORT="22"
DNS_PORT="53"
HTTP_PORT="80"
SNMP_PORT="161"
HTTPS_PORT="443"
