How to open all ports in CentOS 7?
To open all ports on CentOS 7, you can follow these steps:
- Log in to the root account or an account with sudo privileges on the CentOS 7 server.
- Open the firewall configuration file iptables or firewalld (depending on the firewall you are using).
- If you are using iptables, edit the /etc/sysconfig/iptables file.
- If you are using firewalld, run the following commands to open the firewall configuration tool:
firewall-cmd –zone=public –permanent –add-port=1-65535/tcp
firewall-cmd –zone=public –permanent –add-port=1-65535/udp - Save and close the configuration file.
- Restart the firewall to apply the changes.
- If you are using iptables, then run the following commands: systemctl restart iptables, systemctl enable iptables.
- If you are using firewalld, you should run the following commands: systemctl restart firewalld and systemctl enable firewalld.
Now all ports on CentOS 7 have been opened. Please note that doing so will lower the security of the server, as all ports are open.
