NAME
ipkungfu - An iptables-based firewall for Linux
SYNOPSIS
ipkungfu [ -c ] [ -t ] [ -d ] [ -h ] [ -v ] [ --quiet ] [ --panic ] [ --no-caching
DESCRIPTION
ipkungfu is an iptables-based Linux firewall. The primary design goals are security, ease of use, and
performance, in that order. It takes advantage of advanced features of iptables, tcpwrappers, and the
Linux kernel. It also simplifies the configuration of internet connection sharing, advanced routing, and
other networking needs.
OPTIONS
-c (or --check)
Check whether ipkungfu is loaded, and report any command line options it may have been loaded
with.
-t (or --test)
Runs a configuration test, and displays the results. Note that this does not test or display
all configuration options. This gives you an opportunity to verify that major configuration
options are correct before putting them into action.
-d (or --disable)
Disables the firewall. It is important to know exactly what this option does. All traffic
is allowed in and out, and in the case of a gateway, all NATed traffic is forwarded (the
option retains your connection sharing options). Custom rules are not implemented, and
deny_hosts.conf is ignored.
-f (or --flush)
Disables the firewall COMPLETELY. All rules are flushed, all chains are removed. Any port
forwarding or internet connection sharing will cease to work.
-h (or --help)
Displays brief usage information and exits.
-v (or --version)
Displays version information and exits.
--quiet Runs ipkungfu with no standard output
--panic Drops ALL traffic in all directions on all network interfaces. You should probably never use
this option. The --panic option is available for the highly unusual situation where you know
that an attack is underway but you know of no other way to stop it.
--failsafe If ipkungfu fails, --failsafe will cause all firewall policies to revert to ACCEPT. This is
useful when working with ipkungfu remotely, to prevent loss of remote access due to firewall
failure.
--no-caching
Disables rules caching feature.
