RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
Description of problem:
A basic installation of RHEL 7 with firewalld enabled has a complete firewall. man firewalld indicates that the default configs are stored in /usr/lib/firewalld/*. However inspection of those files reveals them to be definitions of the zones and services w/o the actual rules. In particular I am looking for the icmpv6 rules.
The man page indicates I should copy the files from /usr/lib/firewalld into /etc/firewalld and modify them. Since the defaults don't contain the rule I want to remove, I'm not sure how to proceed.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firewalld-0.3.9-14.el7.noarch
How reproducible:
Build a box, check the firewall, try to find the defaults.
Expected results:
Accurate documentation....
Additional info:
There is no file that contains the rule set of firewalld. The rule set is created using the configuration of the used zones, services, direct rules etc. while firewalld starts. Are you asking about this or something else?
