Re: default firewall utility changes for Debian 11 bullseye
Hi Arturo! I know that this discussion took place some months ago, but I am just now getting around to catching up on some old threads :-) On Tue, Jul 30, 2019 at 01:52:30PM +0200, Arturo Borrero Gonzalez wrote: > Ok, after a couple of weeks, lets try to summarize: > > On 7/16/19 11:07 AM, Arturo Borrero Gonzalez wrote: > > > > This email contains 2 changes/proposals for Debian 11 bullseye: > > > > 1) switch priority values for iptables/nftables, i.e, make nftables > > Priority: > > important and iptables Priority: optional > > > > Nobody seems to disagree with this point.

[Side note: I maintain Shorewall in Debian and since the upstream author announced his retirement eariler this year several of the most active developers/community members (including me) have begun the process of taking over the project from him. One of the items we have discussed support for nftables, so I can see that changing in the coming year, making a wiki page a good choice for where to document Shorewall integration with various Debian parts.] Incidentally, the Debian Installation Guide makes no mention of firewalls or even basic steps to secure the system. If a wiki page is developed that documents the various firewall integration options, it would be nice if it became the basis of a new section in the installation manual (perhaps under section 8, Next Steps and Where to Go >From Here). It may also be a good addition/improvement to the Securing Debian Manual. In any event, I am just offering some thoughts; perhaps they might be of some use. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sánchez
