A remote firewall Python library that I'm working on - Ripolak - Sep-24-2018
Hi there!
For the past few days I've been working on a small library that I personally have the need for, and I'm sure that there are some sysadmins (or anyone else) out there who might need it too. It allows you to remotely control firewall configurations on different servers in your network. It supports both Windows and Linux (with IPtables and Windows Firewall) and I'm planning on adding support for FreeBSD at some point in the future.
While there are already libraries to control IPtables and such, they didn't quite fit my need. The main idea of this library is that it can be used to identify all available network adapters in remote servers and insert firewall rules based on that (So if you for example want to insert rules for a certain IP segment on many remote servers, this can be done easily). More info can be found in the ReadMe.
I would appreciate any feedback!
