Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
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 Christian Horn 2023-03-29 05:15:09 UTC
Description of problem:
Via rich rules, one can use for example
# firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=XXX --add-rich-rule='rule family="ipv4" source address=192.168.4.0/24 service name=all log prefix="IN_BOUND_XXX " level="info" limit value="2/d" accept'
Once bz2181406 is implemented, that will create nft like the following command work create:
# nft add rule inet firewalld filter_IN_public_log ip saddr 192.168.4.0/24 \
      tcp dport 22 ct state { new, untracked } \
     limit rate 2/day log prefix "IN_BOUND_XXXX " level info

The issue is that firewall-cmd does not handle the nft "burst" option.  Above will assume "burst 5 packets", but to set the limit of 2/day, we would need firewall-cmd to handle burst, so it creates a rule like this:
# nft add rule inet firewalld filter_IN_public_log ip saddr 192.168.4.0/24 \
      tcp dport 22 ct state { new, untracked } \
     limit rate 2/day burst 1 packets log prefix "IN_BOUND_XXXX " level info

firewall-cmd might instead of the nft utility use a different interface.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
all

How reproducible:
always

Expected outcome:
firewall-cmd should be extended to create nft rules which allow setting of burst, i.e. "burst 1 packets".
