SuSEfirewall2
Stateful packetfilter using iptables and netfilter
|
SuSEfirewall2 implements a packetfilter to allow system administrators to protect their computer and network by restricting the possibility of other hosts connecting to them. This potentially saves you from suffering under the design flaws and vulnerabilties that are found in various daemons. SuSEfirewall2 uses the iptables/netfilter packet filtering infrastructure which allows a flexible rule setup and the creation of a stateful firewall, as it keeps track of connections and has the notion of related connections. For simply protecting a single host from attacks, you can set SuSEfirewall2 in QUICK mode or use the personal-firewall configuration file. Note that SuSEfirewall2 nowadays does include the personal-firewall functionality. |
