Why does wicked need to know about firewalls anyway? Isnt wicked in charge of the whole networking stack and stuff in coop with systemd. There cant be no shorewall without wicked compatibility as far as I understand. Apparently shorewall has some references or support to systemd, but wicked is opensuse specialty only am I wrong? wicked knows nothing about my own firewall script. I have maintained my own for years, from before SuSEfirewall, and it works just fine. A firewall is nothing but a collection of iptables rules. I don't see much reason for wicked to know about it.
If it does have a need to fiddle with the firewall, wicked ought to provide some hooks which every firewall can interface with.
Maybe you should do what I did and switch your firewall to pfsense. It just works.
