In the past I've used "setup" and selected "Firewall configuration" for setting up my firewall (I assume this runs lokkit, at least they look the same). I now have a Redhat 8 machine and as I understand it uses iptables now by default. I'm looking for opinions. I have a linux box on the internet and I want to allow some services, like SSH, SMTP, and WWW, and I also need some ports open for a specialized app, say 11001-11020. I can do this with lokkit, but I have to list each of those extra ports individually. If I ever want to add a port to it, I have to enter it all over again. I've tried doing 11001:11020 in the lokkit but that doesn't seem to work.
1) Can you specify a range of ports with lokkit? 2) Is there another config tool I should be using besides Lokkit? 3) Should I be using a custom firewall script for doing this? 4) Are the built in firewall tools enough, or should I add something like FireStarter or one of the other firewall tools? Suggestions are appreciated. (If I've worded something incorrectly or incompletely please have mercy....) Thanks.
