    I would suggest you contact CSF in regard to this ConfigServer Technical Support

    Hi, how can I stop firewall alert notifications on the system? I am using a CSF firewall with Centos 7, due to security reasons I blocked SSH port access since I had KVM access. now the issue is the KVM viewer becomes so messed up ... the alerts keep popping up even if I open nano or vi editors. The ICMP settings is disabled via cPanel/WHM as well.

    You found any solution yet? I got the same problem

    Nope ... no support from csf forums as well

    I'd generally recommend that you deactive firewall logging. You risk that logs are getting flooded with all the log entries.. If you REALLY need to log the firewall, you can: 1) Either run dmesg -n 1 which will deactivate kernel logging (except panics) to the console 2) Change/add following to the /etc/sysctl.conf file: "kernel.printk = 3 4 1 3" 3) Make a rsyslog rule in /etc/rsyslog.conf that redirects your firewall logs to another log file than dmesg/console

    This worked the best for our CentOS 7 server, thank you!

    Sorry to post this so long after! Any solution at the GUI level of the Firewall?

    @maisondasilva - can you get us more details about the issue you're experiencing? cPanel doesn't create or distribute the CSF tools, so that GUI is completely out of our control, but we may be able to provide you with some advice if we know the issue you're having.
