Code:
 
 
Chain RH-Firewall-1-INPUT (2 references)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination

You could set the default INPUT policy to DROP:

Code:
iptables -P INPUT DROP

And add a rule to allow ssh from the desired subnet:

Code:
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp --source 192.168.1.0/24 --dport 22 -j ACCEPT
