network iptables

Configure the iptables firewall for the appliance. You can use this command to configure the iptables ACCEPT and DROP rules.

By default, the ProtectServer Network HSM allows access to all networks and hosts. The default policy for the INPUT and OUTPUT chain is set to ACCEPT. The default policy for the FORWARD chain is set to DROP, since the ProtectServer Network HSM is not used to forward packets, as in a router or proxy.
