iptables

To have the tables load after reboot

sudo apt-get install iptables-persistent

Then after you edit the iptables, if you want to update the initial file you should

sudo /etc/init.d/iptables-persistent save

 

To enable the log, you need to:

iptables -N LOGGING
iptables -A INPUT -j LOGGING
iptables -A LOGGING -m limit --limit 10/min -j LOG --log-prefix "IPTables-Dropped: " --log-level 10
iptables -A LOGGING -j DROP

 

To delete all the info on the IP Tables, note that this is temporary and will be restored upon reboot unless you save it. 

iptables -F

 

For Asterisk

iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 5060 -m mac --mac-source 00:22:4d:ad:41:29 -j ACCEPT
iptables -A INPUT -p udp --dport 5060 -j DROP

Will only allow packets from the specified mac. 

My particular problem is that that MAC address came from my router, as my Asterisk Server was behind it, so it useless. Maybe if the server was directly exposed to the internet it would have worked.
