Puertos principales de cPanel & WHM

Puertos en cPanel/WHM

El Firewall de Linux es un software de código abierto con la que podremos permitir o negar el tráfico de un servicio específico como: Transmisión de datos a través de FTP, correo electrónico POT3, DNS y otros servicios que podríamos ofrecer en nuestro servidor.

La transmisión de datos de estos servicios se realizan a través de protocolos TCP/UDP, por lo que es muy importante la apertura de los puertos necesarios para la trasmisión de datos de un determinado servicio.

El firewall de Linux no representa un sistema de monitorización con la que podremos analizar la trasmisión de paquetes en los puertos y servicios activos, detección o bloqueo de contenido  con scripts malintencionado y otras características que ofrecen software de antivirus o firewall de pago.
