🛡️ Basic Firewall Simulation in Python

Welcome to this Python-based firewall simulation! This project is designed to help budding cybersecurity enthusiasts understand the fundamentals of network traffic filtering based on IP addresses and ports. 🚦

🌟 Features

• IP and Port Filtering: Filters incoming network traffic based on predefined rules involving IP addresses and ports. 🚫
• Logging: Every decision made by the firewall is logged for security analysis and auditing purposes. 📝
• Random Traffic Simulation: Generates random IP addresses and ports to simulate different network traffic scenarios and test the firewall's effectiveness. 🎲

🛠 Installation

This project uses only standard Python libraries, ensuring that no extra installations are necessary. Just make sure you have Python 3.x installed. Download Python here.

🚀 Usage

To get the firewall simulation up and running, follow these steps:

git clone https://your-repository-url-here
cd le-meilleur-firewall 
python firewall_simulation.py

🔧 Configuration

You can customize the firewall rules in the main() function. Here's how you can define your rules:

firewall_rules = [
    {"ip": "192.168.1.1", "port": 80, "action": "block"},
    {"ip": "192.168.1.4", "action": "allow"},
    {"ip": "192.168.1.9", "port": 443, "action": "block"},
    ...
]

• ip : The IP address to filter.
• port : (Optional) Specify the port for targeted control. If omitted, the rule applies to all ports for that IP.
• action : Choose whether to block or allow the traffic.

😄 A Little Dev Joke

Why do programmers prefer dark mode? 🌚

Because light attracts bugs! 🐛
