Allow full access (all ports) to one IP

Hi @ all,

how can I enable full access to a IP address? With full access I mean on any port range TCP and UDP, without having to add this port to the TCP_IN.

I've tried it with csf.allow but looks like it's not opening all ports.

Thank you very much in advance.

Regards
Andreas

Any IP address in csf.allow will be allowed through iptables. If you edit the csf.allow file manually you will have to restart CSF using: csf -r otherwise add the IP using the CLI: csf -a <IP_address> then you don't have to restart CSF.

I'm thinking you added the IP to csf.allow but forgot to restart CSF.

Hello, unfortunately this was not the problem. I have restarted CSF and LFD.

My goal is to allow a Monitoring Server the access to my server on all ports. Unfortunately the monitoring server still cant access the data form the script running on my server.

If this is a Cpanel/WHM server, is the IP whitelisted in CPHULK or Host Access Control
