Hi,
Request for discussion: Should we offer firewalld as alternative/complement for SuSEfirewall2?
I think we should...
reasoning:
mobile users (laptops) who use NetworkManager / Wicked for managing their ip connectivity "in userspace" would want to be able to have multiple wifi setups that end up being in different zones.
I'm going to try to package the latest firewalld from fedora for openSUSE, and test it with 13.2.
Progress report will follow in due time.
I've just checked some firewalld documentation and it seems to be very similar to what SuSEfirewall2 can do. It even looks like "inspired by SuSEfirewall2" ;) The current Yast can't work with firewalld and most probably will not support it short-time, but adjusting Yast to understand both would be possible. The question is: is that actually needed? Is there a UI tool for configuring firewalld? Is there any other use-case than multiple wifi setups (comparing to SuSEfirewall2)?
