I've got some simple questions related to using a Firewall on some single pubblic Debian Boxes, I choose to post my questions here because I've always securitty in mind during the Developing time of my Network Services.
Let me asume I've got a simple Network with 3 Pubblic Debian Servers and 1 Cisco Router (Internet Gateway). The router belongs to my Connection ISP so I can't configure it, but onlu use it for Internet connectivity. The 3 Debian Boxes are under my full control. The best way to protect my Debian Servers would be to install a Firewall on my Gateway (Cisco Router) but actually I can't, so my question is: Can I install a Firewall on each of my Debian Boxes to filter/block incoming and outgoing Network Traffic ? Is this a good choice ? or should I put another machine in my Network, between the Gateway and the Servers, which acts as Firewall ? Thank you for all you suggestions, Have a nice time...
