we are using Gufw -- thought people should know that there are other options to iptables...

>> just sudo apt install gufw

As you may know, IPtables and NetFilter combine to make the most popular firewall solution in Linux. Given there's only a native command-line interface (CLI) for the two, though, there can be a learning curve. The good news, however, is that there are many graphical user interfaces (GUIs) you can use with Linux. Let's look at some of the most powerful yet easy-to-use options available.
