Hi

Great to see the firewall have been added, I have already Iptables active on the server before the update the Vesta Core I can now see under services that its Stopped have they been disabled during the upgrade and are now using the VESTA Firewall instead?

Thanks
Mike

Vesta uses iptables as a firewall and fail2ban is used to scan log files, IP's that cause too many password failures or seek for exploits are added to iptables. If iptables is stopped, you have no firewall.
