The IPchains Firewalling Webmin Module makes managing a firewall based on ipchains simple with the familiar Webmin interface.
The current version of the IPchains Firewalling Webmin Module offers three different operation modes, each catering to different user levels. The 'Newbie' mode allows users to choose from 5 predefined security levels, each activating a predefined ruleset. There are two different sets of rulesets, one for a Personal Firewall and the other for a Router Firewall. In 'Template' mode, users can select from a big list of protocols and directions which traffic should be allowed to pass through the firewall. Finally, in 'Expert' mode, users have complete control over each rule's details and can change everything as needed.
Installation of the IPchains Firewalling Webmin Module is simple. Users need to log in to their Webmin as admin and go to the Webmin tab. After that, they need to choose "Webmin Configuration" and click on "Webmin Modules". Users can then select the file in the first box and choose any installation method they prefer, as all of them should work. Finally, they just need to click on Install, and the module will start installing.
