Answer
Check if iptables is running.? Run the commands to turn it off:

/etc/init.d/iptables status
/etc/init.d/iptables stop

If iptables is running it is probably on as a service.? Run the command to check:

/sbin/chkconfig --list | grep iptables

Be sure the resulting line is off for all run levels especially if run level 3 or 5 are set to on:

/sbin/chkconfig --level 12345 iptables off

Try accessing the web console again.
