Hello all,

I’m trying to use Ansible to provision through a server with fwknop.  
The playbook I’ve got works initially, until fwknopd on the server removes the iptables exception that it temporarily wrote in.

Would anyone else be interested in using Ansible this way?  
I’m always happy to add another “-j DROP” to my firewalls.
