Iptables doesnt work

hello, I wake up in the morning and I have a report - our website doesn’t work, nor does mail from the company network (it works from any other network outside the organization). The problem lies in iptables. After temporarily disabling everything is OK. I checked all entries in iptables and our company’s subnet is allowed to port 80. I don’t know what the problem might be. I’m also wondering about one thing. Why does iptables supposedly work, but the uptime is 0 minutes. When the others have 55 minutes.

I would be grateful for help

Iptables isn’t a service so instead retuning a fake uptime we return 0…

Thank you for your answer, ok - so where to look for the cause if disabling iptables from the GUI brings email and company websites back to life?

Fail2ban could have banned your IPs and blocked them via IPTables, so by disabling the firewall you can access again.

You can check in https://sub.domain.tld:8083/list/firewall/banlist/ and delete the whole list of IPs before re-enabling the firewall. You can also do this with:
/usr/bin/fail2ban-client unban --all
