The following rule can't be applied
iptables -A INPUT -p all --dport 80 -j DROP
the above fails stating that --dport is not recognized.
I'm trying to drop all traffic to port 80. If I provide a specific protocol it works. For example: iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j DROP
any ideas?
Not all protocols support ports (icmp, for example), so the statement is
somewhat nonsensical. Try specifying "-p tcp" and "-p udp" in two
rules.
