Description Tomas Dolezal 2013-08-06 14:35:21 UTC

Description of problem:
cli: be able to show how much time does have a rule left (e.g. --add-service=http --timeout=60) in a table

when displaying running configuration by --list-all, mark rules/services, with a timeout active, somehow to distinguish them among the others

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
firewalld-0.3.4-1

How reproducible:
always

Steps to Reproduce:
setup: firewall-cmd --add-service=http --timeout $((4*60))
firewall-cmd <list timeouted>
firewall-cmd --list-all

Expected results:
please fix or provide information why do you think it shouldn't be fixed this way
thanks

I think marking them with other colour or (better) asterisk sign would suffice

Nice idea, the problem is that we don't ship such info (e.g. whether the port/service is activated only temporarily) over D-Bus. To fix it we'd have to add it there and therefore change the D-Bus interface which is IMHO not feasible at the moment.

However using colours could be a nice feature, so with the following commit we indicate non-zero exit status with red color.

Comment 4 Thomas Woerner 2013-10-23 14:49:01 UTC

This is not possible at the moment.

We will re-think about this for the firewalld recode in C. But it will surely require a D-BUS interface change, which will not be possible.

Proposing for 7.1 to re-think about it.

Closing as WONTFIX. Bug has been open for 5.5 years with no action and minimal reports from users.
