So im finally getting around to rebuilding the sys-firewall VM on a minimal template. Put it off because i thought there would be a lot of scripting to setup.
According to documentation, it doesnt need any extra packages. https://www.qubes-os.org/doc/templates/fedora-minimal/ And when creating the VM, there is no specific option for a "firewall VM", only "ProxyVM". * So is it correct to assume the sys-firewall VM is just an empty box routing connections? * There are no specific scripts/rules/packages of protection? * Does this actually provide any protection in the sense of a traditional software firewall? How so? Does it stop incoming connections? Or just add a layer of separation between sys-net & app-VMs? * It seems sys-firewall is just there for users to create their own custom rules in VM Manager settings? Can u give an example of rules U guys actually use? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
