H do I stop Iptables firewall under Debian Linux server system?
The iptables command is used to set up, maintain, and inspect the tables of IPv4 packet filter rules in the Linux kernel.
ADVERTISEMENTS
Several different tables may be defined. Each table contains a number of built-in chains and may also contain user-defined chains. You can use the following commands to stop firewall under Debian Linux.
Syntax
First you need to login as root user.
| Tutorial details | |
|---|---|
| Difficulty | Easy (rss) |
| Root privileges | Yes |
| Requirements | None |
| Time | N/A |
$ ssh user@server1.cyberciti.biz
The syntax is as follows:
iptables options
iptables -X
iptables -F
iptables -t table -X
iptables -t table -F
iptables -P chain ACCEPT
To flush the selected chain or all the chains in the table pass the -F option to iptables command. This is equivalent to deleting all the rules one by one. To delete the optional or all the user-defined chain pass the -X option to iptables command. You also need to delete nat and mangle tables using the -F and -X options. Finally, set the default policy to ACCEPT.
Example
Type the following command to save existing iptables configuration.
iptables-save > /root/working.iptables.rules
To stop firewall type the following commands (see syntax above for detiled information):
iptables -F iptables -X iptables -t nat -F iptables -t nat -X iptables -t mangle -F iptables -t mangle -X iptables -P INPUT ACCEPT iptables -P OUTPUT ACCEPT iptables -P FORWARD ACCEPT
You can also use this shell script to stop firewall.
