iptables and linksys router

robrecc · 11-25-2005, 11:16 AM

I have a linksys 4 port router connected to my wan connection. When i start creating my iptable rules which line would make more sense.

$IPT -A INPUT -p tcp --destination-port 22 -j ACCEPT

or

$IPT -A INPUT -s 192.168.1.1 --destination-port 22 -j ACCEPT

a mixture of both would make more sense...

Code:

$IPT -A INPUT -p TCP -s 192.168.1.1 --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
