There is no support for firewalld needed in the frontends; the NM backend is dealing with firewalld.
Here is a list of proposed changes for the frontends: - A dialog to define the default network zones for wired and wireless connections for initial setup and also for configuration changes. - A zone selector for active connections in the primary UI. - A zone selector in the connection editor. - A way to enable and disable network zone support (by backend). But this is still to discuss - the where and how and look and feel. > Jaroslav > Thanks, Thomas > PS: I should ask Jiri, as he sits in same cubicle ;-) > >> The firewalld zone code will be integrated >> into firewalld shortly, but will be deactivated by default.
