http://unix.stackexchange.com – In iptables, I added the rules as below to limit the incoming icmp request packet rate. But it didn't work. Because after the 1st incoming icmp request was accepted by the 1st rule and my host replied, all the following icmp request will accepted by the 2nd rule, which will accept the incoming icmp request as ESTABLISHED state packet. I think this doesn't make sense. I checked the "Iptables Tutorial 1.2.2" and I found the statement as below. "The reply packet is considered as being ESTABLISHED, as we have already explained. However, we can know for sure that after the ICMP reply, there wi (HowTos)

Stories similar to iptables will match the following ICMP request packet as ESTABLISHED state after the first reply packet is sent

When I log the length of a echo-request packet,

iptables -A OUTPUT -p icmp -m icmp --icmp-type 8 -j LOG

I saw the length was LEN=84, but in wireshark, the captured packet size was 0x60, why does it differ?

Exercise: Protection of WEB and DNS servers using the context-free rules for packet filtering: - Protect your WEB-server, so that would be for him can be accessed by browsers, and could go to dns. - Protect your primary DNS-server so that it could be to contact clients and secondary servers. - Allow ICMP ping to / from your site (s). - the rest is declined.

CentOS 4.x

I've got several old CentOS 4.x systems and have configured iptables to allow ICMP traffic.

I read that certain types¹ of ICMP packets can be harmful. Questions:

Which ones and why? How should I layout an iptables ruleset to handle each type of ICMP packet? Should I rate-limit any of these types of ICMP packets? And how?

[¹] The types I read about: Redirect (5), Timestamp (13) and Address Mask Request (17).

I have the following rule,which i believe will restrict icmp packets to 1/s.

iptables matching syntax 15 weeks 6 days ago

For the following iptables rule:

iptables -A INPUT -p icmp -m icmp --icmp-type 255 -j ACCEPT

I am not sure what the point of "-m" is given that "-p" is already present. Does it serve any purpose in this case?

I am setuping my server and I must disable the ping requests for everyone except me and a list of hosts (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd). I am using the tool ufw, on ubuntu server, I read that I have to comment those lines: ok icmp codes

-A ufw-before-input -p icmp --icmp-type destination-unreachable -j ACCEPT -A ufw-before-input -p icmp --icmp-type source-quench -j ACCEPT -A ufw-before-input -p icmp --

iptables tcp NEW state 7 weeks 3 days ago

I am new to iptables and learning them from here

I have questions about the following:

iptables -A INPUT -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT This is the rule that does most of the work, and again we are adding (-A) it to the INPUT chain. Here we're using the -m switch to load a module (state).

Hello all. I'd welcome some advice here.

I acquired a new home wireless router a few days ago.
