Why Block IP Addresses
When running my server I found in the logs that I was getting a lot of users that were just scanning my server for openings. So I decided to start blocking IP Addresses.
Fedora Block IP Addresses IPTable
This is a way of blocking IP Addresses in Fedora.
This command will add an IP Address to the blocked list.
# iptables -A INPUT -s 65.55.44.100 -j DROP
This command will block a range of IPs Just use 255 as *
# iptables -I INPUT -s 30.30.0.0/255.255.0.0 -j DROP // This would drop all 30.30.*.* # iptables -I INPUT -s 30.30.30.0/255.255.255.0 -j DROP // This would drop all 30.30.30.*
This command shows all the iptable references.
# iptables -L
This will remove and IP Address from the IPTable rules. (untested)
# iptables -D INPUT -s xx.xxx.xx.xx -j DROP
or if you know the position
# iptables -D INPUT 5
Fedora Block PORTS from the out side
This will block ports from outside connections.
# iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 3306 -j DROP
This command will block all ports except localhost, I guess localhos host has an interface string of 'lo'
# iptables -I INPUT ! -i lo -p tcp --dport 4369 -j DROP
Block attempted loggins
Block any IP address who has made more than 3 ssh connections or attempted connections within the past 3 minutes. So your would-be brute force attacker, gets three tries, and then is locked out for a minimum of three minutes.
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -m recent --set --name SSH--rsource iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -m state --state NEW -m recent --update --seconds 180 --hitcount 4 --name SSH--rsource -j DROP
Restart IPTables
After any changes have been made to iptables it's a good idea to restart the service
# service iptables restart
If you receive: Failed to issue method call: Unit iptables.service failed to load: No such file or directory. You might have to install iptables-service
# # yum install iptables-services
Import / Export IPTables
Save your IPTables to a file.
iptables-save >/some/file
Restore IPTables from a file.
iptables-restore </some/file
