|
| |
+ FirewallD allows users to control which network ports they want opened, or closed, to keep their system secured from unauthorized access.
|
| |
+ FirewallD is integrated with SystemD and NetworkManager, and supports IPv4, IPv6 and ethernet bridges.
|
| |
+ It also supports an interface for services and applications to add firewall rules directly.
|
| |
+ These settings can be controlled from the command-line, or with the `firewall-config` graphic-user-interface.

|
| |
+ == How do I open and close ports with FirewallD?
|
| |
|
| |
- firewalld provides a dynamically managed firewall with support for
|
| |
- network/firewall zones to define the trust level of network connections
|
| |
- or interfaces. It has support for IPv4, IPv6 firewall settings and for
|
| |
- ethernet bridges and has a separation of runtime and permanent
|
| |
- configuration options. It also supports an interface for services or
|
| |
- applications to add firewall rules directly.
|
| |
+ Opening ports with FirewallD can be executed from the command-line without the need to edit configuration files.
|
| |
+ Ports can be opened using either the service name, or the port number.
|
| |
+ For example, to allow access to the SSH service, type:
|
| |
|
| |
- The former firewall model with system-config-firewall/lokkit was static
|
| |
- and every change required a complete firewall restart. This included
|
| |
- also to unload the firewall netfilter kernel modules and to load the
|
| |
- modules that are needed for the new configuration. The unload of the
|
| |
- modules was breaking stateful firewalling and established connections.
|
| |
+ [source,bash]
|
| |
+ ----
|
| |
+ sudo firewall-cmd --add-service ssh
|
| |
+ ----
|
| |
|
| |
- The firewall daemon on the other hand manages the firewall dynamically
|
| |
- and applies changes without restarting the whole firewall. Therefore
|
| |
- there is no need to reload all firewall kernel modules. But using a
|
| |
- firewall daemon requires that all firewall modifications are done with
|
| |
- that daemon to make sure that the state in the daemon and the firewall
|
| |
- in kernel are in sync. The firewall daemon can not parse firewall rules
|
| |
- added by the ip*tables and ebtables command line tools.
|
| |
+ If allowing access by the port number, it needs to be followed by the protocol whether it is TCP or UDP.
|
| |
+ To open SSH by its port, type:
|
| |
|
| |
- The daemon provides information about the current active firewall
|
| |
- settings via D-BUS and also accepts changes via D-BUS using PolicyKit
|
| |
- authentication methods.

- The official firewalld homepage is at
|
| |
- http://firewalld.org/[firewalld.org]
|
| |
+ This will open the SSH port in runtime mode.
|
| |
+ Runtime mode means it will run the change temporarily and will revert back to its original state after reloading the FirewallD service, or after a system reboot.
|
| |
+ To keep the SSH port opened after a FirewallD service restart, or system reboot, include the `--permanent` option, type:

- The netfilter firewall helpers, that are for example used for amanda,

- ftp, samba and tftp services, are also handled by the daemon as long as
|
| |
- they are part of a predefined service. Loading of additional helpers is
|
| |
- not part of the current interface. For some of the helpers unloading is
|
| |
- only possible after all connections that are handled by the module are

- How to configure or add zones?
|
| |
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
| |
-
|
| |
- To configure or add zones you can either use one of the firewalld
|
| |
- interfaces to handle and change the configuration. These are the
|
| |
- graphical configuration tool firewall-config, the command line tool
|
| |
- firewall-cmd or the D-BUS interface. Or you can create or copy a zone
|
| |
- file in one of the configuration directories.
|
| |
- @PREFIX@/lib/firewalld/zones is used for default and fallback
|
| |
- configurations and /etc/firewalld/zones is used for user created and
|
| |
- customized configuration files.

|
| |
- How to set or change a zone for a connection
|
| |
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The zone is stored into the ifcfg of the connection with the ZONE=
|
| |
- option. If the option is missing or empty, the default zone set in
|
| |
- firewalld is used.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- If the connection is controlled by NetworkManager, you can also use
|
| |
- nm-connection-editor to change the zone.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[network-connections-handled-by-networkmanager]]
|
| |
- Network connections handled by NetworkManager
|
| |
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The firewall is not able to handle network connections with the name
|
| |
- shown by NetworkManager, it can only handle network interfaces.
|
| |
- Therefore NetworkManager tells firewalld to put the network interfaces
|
| |
- related to the connections in the zones defined by the config file
|
| |
- (ifcfg) of the connection before the connection comes up. If the zone is
|
| |
- not set in the config file, the interfaces will be put in the default
|
| |
- zone set by firewalld. If a connection has more than one interfaces,
|
| |
- both will be supplied to firewalld. Also changes in the names of
|
| |
- interfaces will be handled by NetworkManager and supplied to firewalld.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- To simplify this connections will be used as related to zones from now
|
| |
- on.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- NetworkManager also tells firewalld to remove connections from zones
|
| |
- again if the connection went down.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- If firewalld gets started or restarted by systemd or init scripts,
|
| |
- firewalld notifies NetworkManager and the connections will be added to
|
| |
- the zones.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[network-connections-handled-by-network-scripts]]
|
| |
- Network connections handled by network scripts
|
| |
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
| |
-
|
| |
- For connections handled by network scripts there a limitations: There is
|
| |
- no daemon that can tell firewalld to add connections to zones. This is
|
| |
- done in the ifcfg-post script only. Therefore changes in names after
|
| |
- this can not be supplied to firewalld. Also starting or restarting
|
| |
- firewalld if the connections are active already results in the loss of
|
| |
- the relation. There are ideas to fix this also. The simplest is to push
|
| |
- all connections to the default zone that are not set otherwise.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The zone defines the firewall features that are enabled in this zone.

- * Reload the firewall without losing state information:
|
| |
-
|

- ` firewall-cmd --reload`
|

-
|
| |
- If you are using *--complete-reload* instead, the state information will

- A network or firewall zone defines the trust level of the interface used
|
| |
- for a connection. There are several pre-defined zones provided by
|
| |
- firewalld. Zone configuration options and generic file information are
|
| |
- described in the firewalld.zone(5) man page.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[services]]
|
| |
- Services
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- A service can be a list of local ports and destinations and additionally
|
| |
- also a list of firewall helper modules automatically loaded if a service
|
| |
- is enabled. The use of predefined services makes it easier for the user
|
| |
- to enable and disable access to a service. Service configuration options
|
| |
- and generic file information are described in the firewalld.service(5)
|
| |
- man page.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[icmp-types]]
|
| |
- ICMP types
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The Internet Control Message Protocol (ICMP) is used to exchange
|
| |
- information and also error messages in the Internet Protocol (IP). ICMP
|
| |
- types can be used in firewalld to limit the exchange of these messages.
|
| |
- ICMP type configuration options and generic file information are
|
| |
- described in the firewalld.icmptype(5) man page.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[direct-interface]]
|
| |
- Direct interface
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The direct interface is mainly used by services or applications to add
|
| |
- specific firewall rules.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[runtime-configuration]]
|
| |
- Runtime configuration
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The runtime configuration is not permanent and will only be restored for
|
| |
- a reload. After restart or stop of the service or a system reboot, these
|
| |
- options will be gone.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[permanent-configuration]]
|
| |
- Permanent configuration
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The permanent configuration is stored in config files and will be
|
| |
- restored with every machine boot or service reload or restart.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[tray-applet]]
|
| |
- Tray Applet
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The tray applet *firewall-applet* visualizes the firewall state and also
|
| |
- problems with the firewall for the user. It can also be used to
|
| |
- configure settings by calling *firewall-config*.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[graphical-configuration-tool]]
|
| |
- Graphical Configuration Tool
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The configuration tool *firewall-config* is the main configuration tool
|
| |
- for the firewall daemon. It supports all features of the firewall
|
| |
- besides the direct interface, this is handled by the service/application
|
| |
- that added the rules.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[command-line-client]]
|
| |
- Command Line client
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The command line client *firewall-cmd* supports all firewall features.
|
| |
- For status and query modes, there is no output, but the command returns
|
| |
- the state.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- For offline use there is also *firewall-offline-cmd*. This command line
|
| |
- client is creating firewalld configuration files directly and is not
|
| |
- using firewalld or the D-Bus interface. It is for example used in the
|
| |
- system installation process to create an initial firewall configuration
|
| |
- from the kickstart settings.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[support-for-ebtables]]
|
| |
- Support for ebtables
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- ebtables support is needed to fulfill all needs of the libvirt daemon
|
| |
- and to prevent access problems between ip*tables and ebtables on kernel
|
| |
- netfilter level. All these commands are accessing the same structures
|
| |
- and therefore they should not be used at the same time.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[defaultfallback-configuration-in-usrlibfirewalld]]
|
| |
- Default/Fallback configuration in /usr/lib/firewalld
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- This directory contains the default and fallback configuration provided
|
| |
- by firewalld for icmptypes, services and zones. The files provided with
|
| |
- the firewalld package should not get changed and the changes are gone
|
| |
- with an update of the firewalld package. Additional icmptypes, services
|
| |
- and zones can be provided with packages or by creating files.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[system-configuration-settings-in-etcfirewalld]]
|
| |
- System configuration settings in /etc/firewalld
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The system or user configuration stored here is either created by the
|
| |
- system administrator or by customization with the configuration
|
| |
- interface of firewalld or by hand. The files will overload the default
|
| |
- configuration files.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- To manually change settings of pre-defined icmptypes, zones or services,
|
| |
- copy the file from the default configuration directory to the
|
| |
- corresponding directory in the system configuration directory and change
|
| |
- it accordingly.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- If you are loading the defaults for a zone that has a default or
|
| |
- fallback file, the file in /etc/firewalld will be renamed to .old and
|
| |
- the fallback will be used again.

|
| |
- [[rich-language]]
|
| |
- Rich Language
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The rich language provides a high level language to be able to have more
|
| |
- complex firewall rules for IPv4 and IPv6 without the knowledge of
|
| |
- iptables syntax.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- Fedora 19 provides milestone 2 of the rich language with D-Bus and
|
| |
- command line client support. The milestone 3 will also provide support
|
| |
- within firewall-config, the graphical configuration program.
|
| |
-
|

- [[lockdown]]
|
| |
- Lockdown
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- Lockdown adds a simple configuration setting for firewalld to be able to
|
| |
- lock down configuration changes from local applications or services. It
|
| |
- is a very light version of application policies.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- Fedora 19 provides milestone 2 of the lockdown feature with D-Bus and
|
| |
- command line client support. The milestone 3 will also provide support
|
| |
- within firewall-config, the graphical configuration program.
|

- [[permanent-direct-rules]]
|
| |
- Permanent Direct Rules
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- This feature is in early state. It provides the ability to permanently
|
| |
- save direct rules and chains. Passthorough rules are not part of this.
|
| |
- See link:Direct_options[Direct options] for more information on direct
|
| |
- rules.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[migration-from-iptables-and-ebtables-services]]
|
| |
- Migration from ip*tables and ebtables services
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- This feature is in an very early state. It will provide a conversion
|
| |
- script that creates direct permanent rules from the iptables, ip6tables
|
| |
- and ebtables service configurations as far as possible. A limitation
|
| |
- here might be the integration into the direct chains firewalld provides.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- This needs lots of tests at best also from more complex firewall
|
| |
- configurations.
|

- [[planned-and-proposed-features]]
|
| |
- Planned and Proposed Features
|
| |
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[firewall-abstraction-model]]
|
| |
- Firewall Abstraction Model
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- Adding an abstraction layer on top of ip*tables and ebtables firewall
|
| |
- rules makes adding rules simple and more intuitive. The abstraction
|
| |
- layer needs to be powerful, but also simple, which makes this not an
|
| |
- easy task. A firewall language has to gen invented for this. Firewall
|
| |
- rules have a fixed position and querying generic information about
|
| |
- access state, access policies for ports and other firewall features is
|
| |
- possible.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[support-for-conntrack]]
|
| |
- Support for conntrack
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- Conntrack is needed to be able to terminate established connections for
|
| |
- features that get disabled. For some use cases it might not be good to
|
| |
- terminate the connection: Enabling of a firewall service for a limited
|
| |
- time to establish a persistent external connection.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[user-interaction-mode]]
|
| |
- User interaction mode
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- This is a special mode of in the firewall the user or admin can enable.
|
| |
- All requests of applications to alter the firewall are directed to the
|
| |
- user to get notified and granted or denied. It is possible to set a time
|
| |
- limit for the acceptance of a connection and to limit it to hosts,
|
| |
- networks or connections. It can be saved to behave the same in the
|
| |
- future without notification.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- An additional feature of this mode is direct external connection
|
| |
- attempts on preselected services or ports to the user with the same
|
| |
- features as the application initiated requests. The limitation on
|
| |
- services and ports will also limit the amount of requests sent to the
|
| |
- user.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[user-policy-support]]
|
| |
- User policy support
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The administrator can define which users are able to use the User
|
| |
- Interaction Mode and can also limit the firewall features, that can be
|
| |
- used with it.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[port-metadata-information-proposed-by-lennart-poettering]]
|
| |
- Port metadata information (proposed by Lennart Poettering)
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- To have a port independent metadata information would be good to have.
|
| |
- The current model with a static assignment of ports and protocols from
|
| |
- /etc/services is not a good solution and is not reflecting current use
|
| |
- cases. Ports in applications or services are dynamic and therefore the
|
| |
- port itself does not describe the use case.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- This metadata information could be used to form simple rules for the
|
| |
- firewall. Here are some examples:
|
| |
-
|
| |
- ` allow external access to file sharing applications or services` +
|
| |
- ` allow external access to music sharing applications or services` +
|
| |
- ` allow external access to all sharing applications or services` +
|
| |
- ` allow external access to torrent file sharing applications or services` +
|
| |
- ` allow external access to http web services`
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The metadata information here could not only be application specific,
|
| |
- but also a group of use cases. For example the "all sharing" group or
|
| |
- the "file sharing" group could match all sharing or file sharing
|
| |
- applications, for example torrent file sharing. These are examples,
|
| |
- therefore it might be that they are not useful.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- There are two possible solutions to get metadata information in the
|
| |
- firewall:
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The first is to add it to netfilter (kernel space). This has the
|
| |
- advantage, that it can be used by everyone, but also limits the use. To
|
| |
- get user or system specific information into account, all these need to
|
| |
- be implemented in kernel space also.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The other one would be to add this to a firewall daemon. These abstract
|
| |
- rules could be used together with information like the trust level of
|
| |
- the network connections, the user decision to share with as specific
|
| |
- person/host or the hard rule of the administrator to forbid sharing
|
| |
- completely.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The second solution would have the advantage that new metadata groups or
|
| |
- changes in incorporation of trust levels, user preferences or
|
| |
- administrator rules would not require to push a new kernel. Adding these
|
| |
- kind of abstract rules to a firewall daemon would make it much more
|
| |
- flexible. Even new security levels would be easy to add without kernel
|
| |
- updates.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[sysctld]]
|
| |
- sysctld
|
| |
- ^^^^^^^
|
| |
-
|
| |
- At the moment there are sysctl settings that are not properly applied.
|
| |
- This happens if the module providing the setting is not loaded at boot
|
| |
- time when rc.sysinit runs or it the module gets reloaded at runtime.
|
| |
- Another example is net.ipv4.ip_forward, which is needed for example for
|
| |
- specific firewall settings, libvirt and also user/admin changes. If
|
| |
- there are two apps or daemons enabling ip_forwarding only if needed,
|
| |
- then it could happen that one of them is turning it off again without
|
| |
- knowing that there is another one, that still needs it turned on.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The sysctl daemon could solve this by having an internal use count for
|
| |
- settings, that will make it possible to turn it off or go to the
|
| |
- previous setting again if the requester reverted the request to change
|
| |
- it.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- [[firewall-rules]]
|
| |
- Firewall Rules
|
| |
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
|
| |
-
|
| |
- Netfilter firewalls are always susceptible to rule ordering issues,
|
| |
- because a rule does not have a fixed position in a chain. The position
|
| |
- can change if other rules are added or removed in a position before that
|
| |
- rule.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- In the static firewall model a firewall change is recreating a clean and
|
| |
- sane firewall setup limited to the features directly supported by
|
| |
- system-config-firewall / lokkit. Firewall rules created by other
|
| |
- applications are not integrated and s-c-fw / lokkit does not know about
|
| |
- them if the customs rules file feature is not in use. Default chains are
|
| |
- used and there is no safe way to add and remove rules without
|
| |
- interfering with others.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- The dynamic model has additional chains for the firewall features. These
|
| |
- specific chains are called in a defined ordering and rules added to a
|
| |
- chain could not interfere with reject or drop rules in chains that were
|
| |
- called before. This makes it possible to have a more sane firewall
|
| |
- configuration.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- Here are example rules created by the daemon in the filter table with
|
| |
- ssh, ipp-client and mdns enabled in the public zone, all other zones
|
| |
- have been removed to simplify and shorten the output:
|
| |
-
|
| |
- `Â *filter` +
|
| |
- `Â :INPUTÂ ACCEPTÂ [0:0]` +
|
| |
- `Â :FORWARDÂ ACCEPTÂ [0:0]` +
|
| |
- `Â :OUTPUTÂ ACCEPTÂ [0:0]` +
|
| |
- `Â :FORWARD_ZONESÂ -Â [0:0]` +
|
| |
- ` :FORWARD_direct - [0:0]` +
|
| |
- `Â :INPUT_ZONESÂ -Â [0:0]` +
|
| |
- ` :INPUT_direct - [0:0]` +
|
| |
- ` :IN_ZONE_public - [0:0]` +
|
| |
- ` :IN_ZONE_public_allow - [0:0]` +
|
| |
- ` :IN_ZONE_public_deny - [0:0]` +
|
| |
- ` :OUTPUT_direct - [0:0]` +
|
| |
- ` -A INPUT -m conntrack --ctstate RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT` +
|
| |
- ` -A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT` +
|
| |
- ` -A INPUT -j INPUT_direct` +
|
| |
- ` -A INPUT -j INPUT_ZONES` +
|
| |
- ` -A INPUT -p icmp -j ACCEPT` +
|
| |
- ` -A INPUT -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited` +
|
| |
- ` -A FORWARD -m conntrack --ctstate RELATED,ESTABLISHED -j ACCEPT` +
|
| |
- ` -A FORWARD -i lo -j ACCEPT` +
|
| |
- ` -A FORWARD -j FORWARD_direct` +
|
| |
- ` -A FORWARD -j FORWARD_ZONES` +
|
| |
- ` -A FORWARD -p icmp -j ACCEPT` +
|
| |
- ` -A FORWARD -j REJECT --reject-with icmp-host-prohibited` +
|
| |
- ` -A OUTPUT -j OUTPUT_direct` +
|
| |
- ` -A IN_ZONE_public -j IN_ZONE_public_deny` +
|
| |
- ` -A IN_ZONE_public -j IN_ZONE_public_allow` +
|
| |
- ` -A IN_ZONE_public_allow -p tcp -m tcp --dport 22 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT` +
|
| |
- ` -A IN_ZONE_public_allow -d 224.0.0.251/32 -p udp -m udp --dport 5353 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT` +
|
| |
- ` -A IN_ZONE_public_allow -p udp -m udp --dport 631 -m conntrack --ctstate NEW -j ACCEPT`
|
| |
-
|
| |
- Used is a deny/allow model to have a clear behaviour and at best no rule
|
| |
- interferences. Icmp blocks for example will go to the
|
| |
- IN_ZONE_public_deny chain if set for the public zone and will be handled
|
| |
- before the rules in the IN_ZONE_public_allow chain.
|
| |
-
|
| |
- This model makes it more easy to add or remove rules from a specific
|
| |
- block without interfering with accept or drop rules from another block.
