Using iptables to build a firewall in Linux.

This exercise will demonstrate the use of iptables to build a firewall in Linux. Iptables is, in fact, a TCP/IP packet filter based upon a collection of rules; these rules are stored in a series of tables, hence the name. For all practical purposes, the tables are a database and the iptables command allows the user to access and modify the rule set.

  1. Learn about the iptables database in Linux
  2. Learn how to use the iptables Linux command to setup and modify firewall rules.
  3. Use the Linux VM to act as the Blue Team.
  4. Use the Windows VM to act as an attacker (the Red Team)
