When asked to save current IPv4 or IPv6 rules, answer “Yes”.
#### Update APT index and install nftables
```shell
apt install -y iptables-persistent
```console
$ apt update
$ apt install -y nftables
```
### Step 17: configure firewall
#### Enable nftables
```shell
iptables -N SSH_BRUTE_FORCE_MITIGATION

nft add rule ip firewall output oif lo accept
nft add rule ip firewall output tcp dport { http, https } accept
nft add rule ip firewall output udp dport { domain, ntp } accept

```
If network is IPv4-only, run:
```shell
