How to use Webmin for firewall setting in Proxmox V2.1?

[mfgamma]

Hi,

I like to use Webmin for managing servers. It is working fine on the host with proxmox install. When it comes to managing the firewall through webmin I got the message below

So is it possible to deactivate the script (and how) to "transfer" the existing rules to standard webmin managed files?

thanks a lot

best regards



Webmin has detected 1 IPtables firewall rules currently in use, which are not recorded in the save file /etc/iptables.up.rules. These rules were probably setup from a script, which this module does not know how to read and edit.
If you want to use this module to manage your IPtables firewall, click the button below to convert the existing rules to a save file, and then disable your existing firewall script.

Proxmox VE does not setup any iptables rules.

Hi,

ok point taken but I guess there is a pve script that generate the rule below (as seen by webmin) somewhere as I added the IP address 10.10.11.1 only in the pve interface by creating vmbr1

thanks and best regards

No, proxmox default installation does not add any iptables rule.
