88388 is closed, but says a similar thing. In general, the "Customize" part of any user interface assumes that the user knows enough to make manual changes to override the default settings. I think that the documentation for this tool adaquately explains the choices that the "Customize" mode presents. http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-9-Manual/custom-guide/ch-basic-firewall.html#S1-BASIC-FIREWALL-SECURITYLEVEL I agree that the user interface layout could be improved. However, there's only so much that the interface can do to explain a concept as complicated as firewalls to a user who is not familiar with them. |
