Today Firewalls are more important than years before. Hackers and Bots are trying to invade your server. So what is the most effective way to prevent this? Set up a firewall! But which one? IPTables is the strongest firewall in Linux environments. So we wanted to make IPTables usable by everyone. We created a simple Web Interface for IPTables so everyone can install and use it on his / her server.
- Configuration of Firewall Rules using a simple Webinterface
- Blacklist for blocking incoming triffic from a IPV4 / IPV6 Address
- Whitelist to allow all incoming network traffic from a specific IP Address
- Allow incoming traffic to a single TCP or UDP Port
- Allow incoming Traffic from a TCP or UDP Port range
- Automatic Reset of Firewall Settings on connection loss or bad firewall settings
You can view an online version of the program as a demo under the following link:

The online demo version is reset every 30 minutes and all data is deleted. The demo has only the frontend installed without the backend. Configuration changes are therefore not saved or applied.
Most of you noticed that there are a lot of changes made at the moment, but the release status is still in "development" and there are no minor releases. This is because I currently enhance the project until the next release. The reason for this is because I learned a lot of Python 3 coding the last year in my main job. I want to use this knowledge and clean this project up so everyone can use it and there are less bugs than before (there were a lot of bugs). If you want to support me and improve the development speed you can send me a beer on beerpay 🍻
