+Installs a simple iptables-based firewall for RHEL/CentOS or Debian/Ubuntu systems. Supports both IPv4 (`iptables`) and IPv6 (`ip6tables`).
 
 This firewall aims for simplicity over complexity, and only opens a few specific ports for incoming traffic (configurable through Ansible variables). If you have a rudimentary knowledge of `iptables` and/or firewalls in general, this role should be a good starting point for a secure system firewall.
