There was a time when I was about to select a firewall for a server which had DirectAdmin installed and I choosed CSF. CSF is one of the best firewall available for hosting servers.
- Installation of CSF in directAdmin is really easy, just download csf.
- Extract it
- and Install it
Just a 3 step installation.
- Login to server via ssh,
- Download csf using wget
- Run ./install.directadmin.sh

If you get perl related error then run uninstall script
- ./uninstall.directadmin.sh
- Install perl
- Then again try to install csf
