How do I delete a blocked IP?
Run iptables-save|grep 24.7.56.95 to get the exact rule command used to enabled the block. It will be something like:
-A INPUT ! -i lo -s 24.7.56.95 -j DROP
Take this command, replace the -A with -D and run it through iptables:
iptables -D INPUT ! -i lo -s 24.7.56.95 -j DROP
Et viola!
Use iptables -D INPUT 1 to delete the first rule in list, or iptables -F INPUT to delete all rules.
405 and 35964 are the packet and byte counts, respectively. Just like the header says.
$ sudo iptables -v -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 1 packets, 155 bytes) pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
Use iptables -L --line-numbers to see the actual rule numbers.
Check if there is any block for the IP address in csf
grep /etc/csf
If found, remove that csf rule
csf -dr
It will automatically remove the iptable rule also.
You can check the status of IP using the command csf -g
If no rules in Ip tables, the result will be as follows:
Chain num pkts bytes target prot opt in out source destination
No matches found for in iptables
You can also check the same in IP table also.
