Question Plesk Firewall

[Dork]

Server operating system version

CentOS Linux 7.9.2009

Plesk version and microupdate number

18.0.55 Update 1

Should I deinstall the Plesk Firewall when I use fail2ban?

No, keep Plesk Firewall. Fail2Ban interacts with iptables. It does not need Plesk Firewall, but the Firewall extension gives you many additional options to protect your server. It is independent from Fail2Ban.

No, keep Plesk Firewall. Fail2Ban interacts with iptables. It does not need Plesk Firewall, but the Firewall extension gives you many additional options to protect your server. It is independent from Fail2Ban.

But the Plesk dokumentation say:
Caution: Both the Plesk firewall and firewalld are tools for managing the iptables firewall. Using both tools simultaneously can result in conflicts and in ports required for Plesk to operate being closed. We recommend only using one tool at a time.

Please help.

You either use firewalld or Plesk Firewall, but not both at the same time.
