Firewalld : Basic Operation2015/01/13

	This is the Basic Operation of Firewalld. The definition of services is set to zones on Firewalld. To enable Firewall, assosiate a zone to a NIC with related commands.
[1]	To use Firewalld, start it.

[root@dlp ~]#

systemctl start firewalld

[root@dlp ~]#

systemctl enable firewalld

[2]	By default, "public" zone is applied with a NIC and dhcpv6-client and ssh are allowed. When operating with "firewall-cmd" command, if you input the command without "--zone=***" specification, then, configuration is set to the default zone.

# display the default zone

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --get-default-zone

public

# display current settings

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-all

public (default, active)
  interfaces: eno16777736
  sources:
  services: dhcpv6-client ssh
  ports:
  masquerade: no
  forward-ports:
  icmp-blocks:
  rich rules:

# display all zones defined by default

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-all-zones

block
  interfaces:
  sources:
  services:

  forward-ports:

  .....

# display allowed services on a specific zone

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-service --zone=external

ssh

# change default zone

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --set-default-zone=external

success

# change zone for an interface (*note)

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --change-interface=eth1 --zone=external

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-all --zone=external

external (active)
  interfaces: eth1
  sources:
  services: ssh
  ports:
  masquerade: yes
  forward-ports:
  icmp-blocks:
  rich rules:

# *note : it's not changed permanently with "change-interface" even if added "--permanent" option

# if change permanently, use nmcli like follows

[root@dlp ~]#

nmcli c mod eth1 connection.zone external

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --get-active-zone

external
  interfaces: eth1
public
  interfaces: eth0

[3]	Display services defined by default.

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --get-services

[4]	Add or Remove allowed services. The change will be back after rebooting the system. If you change settings permanently, add the "--permanent" option.

# for example, add http (the change will be valid at once)

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --add-service=http

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-service

dhcpv6-client http ssh

# for example, remove http

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --remove-service=http

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-service

dhcpv6-client ssh

# for example, add http permanently. (this permanent case, it's necessary to reload the Firewalld to enable the change)

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --add-service=http --permanent

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --reload

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-service

dhcpv6-client http ssh

[5]	Add or remove allowed ports.

# for example, add TCP 465

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --add-port=465/tcp

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-port

465/tcp

# for example, remove TCP 465

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --remove-port=465/tcp

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-port

# for example, add TCP 465 permanently

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --add-port=465/tcp --permanent

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --reload

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-port

465/tcp

[6]	Add or remove prohibited ICMP types.

# for example, add echo-request to prohibit it

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --add-icmp-block=echo-request

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-icmp-blocks

echo-request

# for example, remove echo-request

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --remove-icmp-block=echo-request

success
[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --list-icmp-blocks

# display ICMP types

[root@dlp ~]#

firewall-cmd --get-icmptypes
