Installing Plesk Firewall Module

You can install the Plesk Firewall module to the Plesk server in two ways: from the control panel (recommended), and from the command line.

To install the Plesk Firewall module through the control panel:

  1. Login as administrator to the control panel.
  2. Select the Modules shortcut in the navigation pane
  3. Click Manage Modules.
  4. Click Add New Module.
  5. Select a module package file, and click OK.

To install the Plesk Firewall module through the command line:

  1. Login as root to the server, where Plesk is installed.
  2. Run the command /plesk_installation_directory/admin/bin/modulemng --install --file=<plesk_firewall_module_filename>, where 'plesk_installation_directory' is the directory you installed Plesk to.

    Example:

    /usr/local/psa/admin/bin/modulemng --install --file=/opt/modules/firewall.rpm

Note: Plesk Firewall module and other modules that come with Plesk are located in the directory /opt/modules of Plesk distribution.
