My task is to restrict(only send and accept request from specific ip ) the incoming and outgoing n/w traffic from Android H/W(OS 4.0.4).

After Google this, i found that this could be done by iptables but i didn't found that in which file or place i need to change or update.

Can anyone give the example with command assuming that from 1.1.1.1 ip(wifi n/w) Android h/w will connect.

  1. First set a static IP address for your mobile device, follow the link given below, http://unlockforus.blogspot.in/2012/05/how-to-use-static-ip-address-at-android.html

  2. Now you mobile device also a part of Wifi network, so the incoming and outgoing device IP can be tracked.

  3. Modify IP table to Restrict or Allow an IP address using IpTables, follow the links given below, https://help.ubuntu.com/community/IptablesHowTo and iptables block access to port 8000 except from IP address
