Description

MAybe there is a way to add a Firewall to the Server via Hetzner API? All the Ports used bei the Project could be opend, but all others coud be closed.

Context and notes

The Firewall of Hetzner is very simple in forground.

In Background it save the Server for DDoS an many other Problems. So it seams to be sensfull to activate it by default.

Belong to the sense of this Project, it should be done by create and start the server on the same way, using the API.

This would complete it a bit more.

Hetzner firewall docs: https://docs.hetzner.com/cloud/firewalls/faq
DO firewall docs: https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/networking/firewalls/

In both cases these are just firewalls, and they do not provide DDoS protection. There is also a firewall on the server itself.

Ok, it is just my expierience, that the VPS ist no too busy with the firewal outside. And it really seamed to defense a bigg attack on another VPS of mine like a DDoS. Maybe it is not mentioned in the documentation, but in fact, Hetzner defense the System ouside quite good if any firewall is active. ?

Fedback will be welcome...
