IP Tables or APF Lockouts

The most common mistake we see is applying the rule set to the incorrect Interface. Remember:

Eth0 - private network & IPMI interface 10.x.x.x

Eth1 - public network interface 66.228.x.x, 208.101.x.x, etc.

If you do happen to lock yourself out, you still have access to the server over the SSL VPN gateway utilizing the IPMI console tools. Instructions on how to use the SSL VPN are located inside the portal under the private network tab.
