Rep Power: 1 | Hmm..firewall in linux is netfilter iptables.there are quiet a lot of front-ends.and in Ubuntu ,apt-get install ufw gufw and this will allow you to open a random port.if router is in bridge mode(that is you dial from Linux to connect ,not router pppoe mode),opening a random port like 52342 is enough.for pppoe mode ,you need to configure virtual server and all in router. |
