Hi All,
In SL7, I presume firewalld has replaced iptables.
My SL6 iptables scripts (four of them) are really quite complex
and have been refined over the years (two Ethernet ports and
one fake Ethernet port, etc.).
I was thinking of going back to them in SL7, but am a bit
confused as to how. This is what I have so far:
iptables and firewall on FC19+ and EL7+
Reference: http://serverfault.com/questions/470287/how-to-enable-
iptables-instead-of-firewalld-services-on-rhel-7-and-fedora-18
iptables has been replaced with firewalld.
You can disable firewalld with the following:
# systemctl disable firewalld.service
# systemctl stop firewalld.service
If you want to use iptables instead (disable firewalld first):
# yum|dnf install iptables-services
Okay so far, but I haven't figured out how to stitch in
my old iptables scripts. Or where for that matter.
Many thanks,
-T
firewalld isn't replacing iptables, it actually depends on it. Firewalld is
more like a more advanced configuration tool for iptables.
IIRC, with the iptables-services package installed you get the same iptables
behaviour as in SL6. That means you have the configuration located in
/etc/sysconfig/iptables*.

Hi David,
Thank you. I had thought for a moment that firewalld had replaced
iptables
Just out of curiosity, does iptables-services have to be active to all
iptables with a script?
May thanks,
