However, it seems that security risks are greatly increased ...... Use/etc/init. d/iptables status to view the firewall information. The opened port is displayed. It is feasible to open the port to be used. The command is as follows: /sbin/iptables-I INPUT-p tcp -- dport 8080-j ACCEPT #8080 indicates the specified port/etc/rc. d/init. d/iptables save # save the changes/etc/init. d/iptables restart # restart the firewall to make the change take effect. Of course, if you don't feel any trouble, restart the system (command: reboot).

Therefore, you are not allowed to use this method for security reasons: www.2cto.com -------------------------- When we use the CentOS system, the CentOS firewall sometimes needs to change the settings. The CentOS firewall is enabled by default. You can set the open port of the CentOS firewall as follows: Open the iptables configuration file vi/etc/sysconfig/iptables to modify the CentOS Firewall: be sure to leave a path for yourself and leave a VNC Management port and an SSh Management port. The following is an example of iptables: # Firewall configuration written by system-config-securitylevel # Manual customization of this file is not recommended. * filter: input accept [0: 0]: forward accept [0: 0]: output accept [0: 0]: RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-[0: 0]-a input-j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-A FORWARD-j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-I lo-j ACCEPT-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT ACCEPT-A-p icmp-type any-j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT ACCEPT-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-p 50-j ACCEPT-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-p 51-j-m state-state ESTABLISHED, RELATED-j ACCEPT-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-m state-state NEW-m tcp-p tcp-dport 53-j ACCEPT-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-m state-state NEW-m udp-p udp-dport 53 -J ACCEPT-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-m state-state NEW-m tcp-p tcp-dport 22-j ACCEPT-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-m state-state NEW-m tcp-p tcp-dport 25-j ACCEPT-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-m state-state NEW-m tcp-p tcp-dport 80-j ACCEPT-A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT ACCEPT-A-m state-state NEW-m tcp-p tcp-dport 443-j RH-Firewall-1-INPUT -j REJECT-reject-with icmp-host-prohibitedCOMMIT required to modify CentOS Firewall Note that you must modify the file based on your server. For example, if you do not want to open port 80 to provide web services, delete the line accordingly: -A RH-Firewall-1-INPUT-m state-state NEW-m tcp-p tcp-dport 80-j ACCEPT all after modification restart iptables: service iptables restart: You can verify whether all the rules have taken effect: iptables-L. In this way, the settings of the CentOS firewall are modified.
