Time Based iptables rules with patch-o-matic extension
Thursday, May 15th, 2008
How can you restrict/allow access to certain service on timely basis with iptables? For example restrict access to SSH between 7:00 pm - 8:00 am on weekdays?
You are welcome to use iptables patch-o-matic extension (pom or p-o-m) that allows you to match a packet based on its arrival or departure (for locally generated packets) timestamp.
