  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question How to disable Plesk Control Panel through SSH?

Basic Pleskian
I want to disable Plesk control panel for security reasons but still have it accessible on a need-only basis. Are there any quick terminal commands that can be used to disable and re-enable Plesk Control Panel?
 
I was able to disable it using iptables

Code: 
iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --match multiport --dport 8880,8443 -j DROP

Was wondering if there is a faster solution?
 
Just stop/start sw-cp-server service. All hosting will work, but Plesk panel will be stopped.
