   1. Search the documentation
   2. Read the documentation:
   http://doc.slitaz.org/en:handbook:networkconf?s=firewall&s=conf#manage-the-firewall-firewall-using-iptables

   P.S. There is also a package ufw in slitaz repositories, you may know it from Ubuntu or mint (uncomplicated firewall), but it is set up from command line. Install it:
   #tazpkg -gi ufw

   How to operate it you can probably type $man ufw or $ufw --help at terminal and read the doc. You may also read here instructions how it is operated at Ubuntu.
   https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UFW

   I haven't found a corresponding guwf (graphic interface to ufw). But it isn't really necessary, command line ufw package is straightforward enough to setup as I know it from Ubuntu, haven't tried it on slitaz though.

   root@slitaz:/tmp# /etc/init.d/firewall status

   ===================== SliTaz firewall statistics =====================

   Kernel security: enabled

   Netfilter/iptables rules:

   /etc/init.d/firewall: line 85: iptables: not found

   Its what I read in the above doc "Manage the Firewall (firewall) using Iptables SliTaz provides a very basic firewall, the kernel security rules are launched at boot time and iptables rules are disabled by default. You can activate/disable these at startup by using the configuration file /etc/firewall.conf."

   -As Erkan replied already
   -Or #hwsetup firewall (read here: http://forum.slitaz.org/topic/firewall
