Solution(By Examveda Team)

To install the file ipchains-1.3.9-5.i386.rpm, you would use the rpm -i command followed by the name of the RPM file.
The -i option stands for "install", and it tells the RPM package manager to install the specified package.
So, the correct command would be rpm -i ipchains-1.3.9-5.i386.rpm.
Additionally, the asterisk () after "ipchains" in the option implies wildcard matching, which can help if there are multiple versions of the package or if there are additional characters appended to the filename.
So, in summary, to install the ipchains package, you would use rpm -i ipchains .i386.rpm.
