Subject: Re: About F19 Firewall
Wireless networks have unique "names" and are represented as different
connections on NetworkManager (network connection != interface). For
network named "MyHomeNet" one can associate Home zone in
NetworkManager and for network "CoffeShowHotSpot" one assigns Public zone. You
don't have to change anything once it's assigned. Public zone is as I
understand strictest but usable one (block zone does not allow traffic).
This can also be applied to wired connection.
Yep, true.Individual zones for each type of network seems to offer choice and
versatility from Firewalld. But a user could end up using the same zone for all networks,
because it appears as the default one when doing the network <=> zone assignment in
NetworkManager. I don't use NetworkManager so not sure how it works.
I agree they're harder to understand and maintain manually by
sysadmin but they're not designed for such usage.
Hmmn, it should have been a package for user to install at will, rather than a
replacement of an understandable firewall.
Thanks.
