Security

[John Forbes_3]

Hi,
Is there a way to secure my system my ip-filtering or MAC filtering?

Thanks,
John

One can probably use `Bastille` from HPUX-11i
onwards for this.

I forgot to mention that my hp-ux systems are combinations of 10.20 & 11.00 versions.

Thanks,
John

Just checked, this works for 11.00 also.. acording to the following link...

Yes it can do it

Use IPFILTER software :)

[Ted Buis]

IPFilter is bundled with 11.11, but an add on for 11.0. I presume you know 10.20 is unsupported, and if you are concerned about security, since it is no longer being patched, you should move off of it.

[Bill Hassell]

IP Filter for 10.20 is not available from HP or the Liverpool archive. You'll have to find the source code and get an ANSI C compiler to build the programs. Yet another reason to move off 10.20 (and 11.00) as soon as possible.

Sure, You could use IPFilter product on HP-UX for
securing your system. See manpages for
ipf(5) and ipf(8). IPFilter blocks/passes traffic
depending on IP address/port # etc (no MAC
based filtering).

If you can give more details on what exactly you
want to do, I could try to help you on that.
