Block/Accept by country ip address blocks

Post by lockview »

Hi all,

Is it possible to install a larger rule set to block inbound connections by ip-address ?
So classic problem of seeing ip-scans from China/Russia ... and I'd just like to block with iptables at the point of entry.

Any thoughts appreciated.

Best Regards.

Have a look at the following link (its the only want I can think of blocking a range of IP addresses), the firewall should block these connection anyway
