Pretty much every time I call firewall-cmd I end up calling it twice: % firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=7777 % firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=7777 --permanent I think "do it right now and persistently" is usually what people want 99% of time. It would be nice if firewalld made it simpler. I'd really prefer if there were a `--temporary` switch to go along with the `--permanent` switch, so the default action without either is to make the change now and persistently, but some sort of `--permanent-and-runtime` switch would be okay too.
Oops, sorry now I see a very similar bug. Should have looked harder. I'll comment there. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 879832 ***
