well--the standard way would be to set the policy of the built-in chain
to DROP; i.e.,

  iptables -P INPUT DROP

the same can be achieved by making the last rule in the chain a drop
rule, like

  iptables -A INPUT -j DROP

but that gets messy if you want to append rules "on the fly" so the
policy method is preferred.

-j
