FIREWALL-CMD(1)

NAME
firewall-cmd - firewalld command line client

SYNOPSIS

firewall-cmd [OPTIONS...]

DESCRIPTION

firewall-cmd is the command line client of the firewalld daemon. It provides an interface to manage the runtime and permanent configurations.

The runtime configuration in firewalld is separated from the permanent configuration. This means that things can get changed in the runtime or permanent configuration.

OPTIONS

Sequence options are the options that can be specified multiple times, the exit code is 0 if there is at least one item that succeeded. The ALREADY_ENABLED (11), NOT_ENABLED (12) and also ZONE_ALREADY_SET (16) errors are treated as succeeded. If there are issues while parsing the items, then these are treated as warnings and will not change the result as long as there is a succeeded one. Without any succeeded item, the exit code will depend on the error codes. If there is exactly one error code, then this is used. If there are more than one then UNKNOWN_ERROR (254) will be used.

The following options are supported:

  General Options

-h, --help
    Prints a short help text and exits.

-V, --version
    Print the version string of firewalld. This option is not combinable with other options.

-q, --quiet
    Do not print status messages.

  Status Options

--state
    Check whether the firewalld daemon is active (i.e. running). Returns an exit code 0 if it is active, RUNNING_BUT_FAILED if failure occurred on startup, NOT_RUNNING otherwise. See the section called “EXIT CODES”. This will also print the state to STDOUT.

--reload
    Reload firewall rules and keep state information. Current permanent configuration will become new runtime configuration, i.e. all runtime only changes done until reload are lost with reload if they have not been also in permanent configuration.

    Note: If FlushAllOnReload=no, runtime changes applied via the direct interface are not affected and will therefore stay in place until firewalld daemon is restarted completely. For FlushAllOnReload, see firewalld.conf(5).

--complete-reload
    Reload firewall completely, even netfilter kernel modules. This will most likely terminate active connections, because state information is lost. This option should only be used in case of severe firewall problems. For example if there are state information problems that no connection can be established with correct firewall rules.

    Note: If FlushAllOnReload=no, runtime changes applied via the direct interface are not affected and will therefore stay in place until firewalld daemon is restarted completely. For FlushAllOnReload, see firewalld.conf(5).

--runtime-to-permanent
    Save active runtime configuration and overwrite permanent configuration with it. The way this is supposed to work is that when configuring firewalld you do runtime changes only and once you're happy with the configuration and you tested that it works the way you want, you save the configuration to disk.

--check-config
    Run checks on the permanent configuration. This includes XML validity and semantics.

--reset-to-defaults
    Reset configuration to firewalld's default configuration.

  Log Denied Options

--get-log-denied
    Print the log denied setting.

--set-log-denied=value
    Add logging rules right before reject and drop rules in the INPUT, FORWARD and OUTPUT chains for the default rules and also final reject and drop rules in zones for the configured link-layer packet type. The possible values are: all, unicast, broadcast, multicast and off. The default setting is off, which disables the logging.

    This is a runtime and permanent change and will also reload the firewall to be able to add the logging rules.

  Permanent Options

--permanent
    The permanent option --permanent can be used to set options permanently. These changes are not effective immediately, only after service restart/reload or system reboot. Without the --permanent option, a change will only be part of the runtime configuration.

    If you want to make a change in runtime and permanent configuration, use the same call with and without the --permanent option.

    The --permanent option can be optionally added to all options further down where it is supported.

  Zone Options

--get-default-zone
    Print default zone for connections and interfaces.

--set-default-zone=zone
    Set default zone for connections and interfaces where no zone has been selected. Setting the default zone changes the zone for the connections or interfaces, that are using the default zone.

    This is a runtime and permanent change.

--get-active-zones
    Print currently active zones altogether with interfaces and sources used in these zones. Active zones are zones, that have a binding to an interface or source. The output format is:

        zone1
          interfaces: interface1 interface2 ..
          sources: source1 ..
        zone2
          interfaces: interface3 ..
        zone3
          sources: source2 ..

    If there are no interfaces or sources bound to the zone, the corresponding line will be omitted.

[--permanent] --get-zones
    Print predefined zones as a space separated list.

[--permanent] --get-services
    Print predefined services as a space separated list.

[--permanent] --get-icmptypes
    Print predefined icmptypes as a space separated list.

[--permanent] --get-zone-of-interface=interface
    Print the name of the zone the interface is bound to or no zone.

[--permanent] --get-zone-of-source=source[/mask]|MAC|ipset:ipset
    Print the name of the zone the source is bound to or no zone.

[--permanent] --info-zone=zone
    Print information about the zone zone. The output format is:

        zone
          interfaces: interface1 ..
          sources: source1 ..
          services: service1 ..
          ports: port1 ..
          protocols: protocol1 ..
          forward-ports:

        zone1
          interfaces: interface1 ..
          sources: source1 ..
          services: service1 ..
          ports: port1 ..
          protocols: protocol1 ..
          forward-ports:
                forward-port1
                ..

  Options to Adapt and Query Zones and Policies

Options in this section affect only one particular zone or policy. If used with --zone=zone or --policy=policy option, they affect the specified zone or policy. If both options are omitted, they affect the default zone (see --get-default-zone).

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --list-all
    List everything added or enabled.

--permanent [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --get-target
    Get the target.

--permanent [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --set-target=target
    Set the target.

    For zones target is one of: default, ACCEPT, DROP, REJECT

    For policies target is one of: CONTINUE, ACCEPT, DROP, REJECT

    default is similar to REJECT, but it implicitly allows ICMP packets.

    ACCEPT allows traffic to be forwarded from the zone, either to the same zone or other zones.

--permanent [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --set-description=description
    Set description.

--permanent [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --get-description
    Print description.

--permanent [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --set-short=description
    Set short description.

--permanent [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --get-short
    Print short description.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --list-services
    List services added as a space separated list.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --add-service=service [--timeout=timeval]
    Add a service. This option can be specified multiple times. If a timeout is supplied, the rule will be active for the specified amount of time and will be removed automatically afterwards. timeval is either a number (of seconds) or number followed by one of characters s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours), for example 20m or 1h.

    The service is one of the firewalld provided services. To get a list of the supported services, use firewall-cmd --get-services.

    The --timeout option is not combinable with the --permanent option.

    Note: Some services define connection tracking helpers. Helpers that may operate in client mode (e.g. tftp) must be added to an outbound policy instead of a zone to take effect for clients. Otherwise the helper will not be applied to the outbound traffic. The related traffic, as defined by the connection tracking helper, on the return path (ingress) will be allowed by the stateful firewall rules.

    An example of an outbound policy for connection tracking helpers:

        # firewall-cmd --permanent --new-policy clientConntrack
        # firewall-cmd --permanent --policy clientConntrack --add-ingress-zone HOST
        # firewall-cmd --permanent --policy clientConntrack --add-egress-zone ANY
        # firewall-cmd --permanent --policy clientConntrack --add-service tftp

    Remove a service. This option can be specified multiple times.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --query-service=service
    Return whether service has been added. Returns 0 if true, 1 otherwise.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --list-ports

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --add-port=portid[-portid]/protocol [--timeout=timeval]
    Add the port. This option can be specified multiple times. If a timeout is supplied, the rule will be active for the specified amount of time and will be removed automatically afterwards. timeval is either a number (of seconds) or number followed by one of characters s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours), for example 20m or 1h.

    The port can either be a single port number or a port range portid-portid. The protocol can either be tcp, udp, sctp or dccp.

    The --timeout option is not combinable with the --permanent option.

    The --timeout option is not combinable with the --permanent option.

    For IPv6 masquerading, please use the rich language.

    Note: IP forwarding will be implicitly enabled.

    Note (Linux < 5.5): For the iptables backend, a policy may not enable masquerade if an ingress zone has assigned interfaces. This restriction does not exist for the nftables backend, but does require Linux v5.5+ to function properly; otherwise it will silently fail.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --remove-masquerade
    Disable IPv4 masquerade. If the masquerading was enabled with a timeout, it will be disabled also.

    For IPv6 masquerading, please use the rich language.

If a timeout is supplied, the rule will be active for the specified amount of time and will be removed automatically afterwards. timeval is either a number (of seconds) or number followed by one of characters s (seconds), m (minutes), h (hours), for example 20m or 1h.

    For the rich language rule syntax, please have a look at firewalld.richlanguage(5).

    The --timeout option is not combinable with the --permanent option.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] [--policy=policy] --remove-rich-rule='rule'
    Remove rich language rule 'rule'. This option can be specified multiple times.

    For the rich language rule syntax, please have a look at firewalld.richlanguage(5).

    Return whether a rich language rule 'rule' has been added. Returns 0 if true, 1 otherwise.

    For the rich language rule syntax, please have a look at firewalld.richlanguage(5).

  Options to Adapt and Query Zones

Options in this section affect only one particular zone. If used with --zone=zone option, they affect the specified zone. If the option is omitted, they affect default zone (see --get-default-zone).

--permanent --policy=policy --get-priority
    Get the priority.

--permanent --policy=policy --set-priority=priority
    Set the priority. The priority determines the relative ordering of policies. This is an integer value between -32768 and 32767 where -1 is the default value for new policies and 0 is reserved for internal use.

    If a priority is < 0, then the policy's rules will execute before all rules in all zones.

    If a priority is > 0, then the policy's rules will execute after all rules in all zones.

[--permanent] --policy=policy --list-ingress-zones
    List ingress zones added as a space separated list.

[--permanent] --policy=policy --add-ingress-zone=zone
    Add an ingress zone. This option can be specified multiple times.

    The ingress zone is one of the firewalld provided zones or one of the pseudo-zones: HOST, ANY.

    HOST is used for traffic originating from the host machine, i.e. the host running firewalld.

    ANY is used for traffic originating from any zone. This can be thought of as a wild card for zones. However it does not include traffic originating from the host machine - use HOST for that.

[--permanent] --policy=policy --remove-ingress-zone=zone
    Remove an ingress zone. This option can be specified multiple times.

[--permanent] --policy=policy --query-ingress-zone=zone
    Return whether zone has been added. Returns 0 if true, 1 otherwise.

[--permanent] --policy=policy --list-egress-zones
    List egress zones added as a space separated list.

[--permanent] --policy=policy --add-egress-zone=zone
    Add an egress zone. This option can be specified multiple times.

    The egress zone is one of the firewalld provided zones or one of the pseudo-zones: HOST, ANY.

    For clarification on HOST and ANY see option --add-ingress-zone.

[--permanent] --policy=policy --remove-egress-zone=zone
    Remove an egress zone. This option can be specified multiple times.

[--permanent] --policy=policy --query-egress-zone=zone
    Return whether zone has been added. Returns 0 if true, 1 otherwise.

[--permanent] --policy=policy|--policy-set=policy-set --add-disable
    Administratively disable a policy. A disabled policy will not activate.

[--permanent] --policy=policy|--policy-set=policy-set --remove-disable
    Remove the administratively disable from a policy. Allows a policy to activate.

[--permanent] --policy=policy --query-disable
    Return if the policy is administratively disabled.

  Options to Handle Bindings of Interfaces

Binding an interface to a zone means that this zone settings are used to restrict traffic via the interface.

Options in this section affect only one particular zone. If used with --zone=zone option, they affect the zone zone. If the option is omitted, they affect default zone (see --get-default-zone).

For a list of predefined zones use firewall-cmd --get-zones.

An interface name is a string up to 16 characters long, that may not contain ' ', '/', '!' and '*'.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] --list-interfaces
    List interfaces that are bound to zone zone as a space separated list. If zone is omitted, default zone will be used.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] --add-interface=interface
    Bind interface interface to zone zone. If zone is omitted, default zone will be used.

    If the interface is under control of NetworkManager, it is at first connected to change the zone for the connection that is using the interface. If this fails, the zone binding is created in firewalld and the limitations below apply. For interfaces that are not under control of NetworkManager, firewalld tries to change the ZONE setting in the ifcfg file, if the file exists.

    As a end user you don't need this in most cases, because NetworkManager (or legacy network service) adds interfaces into zones automatically (according to ZONE= option from ifcfg-interface file) if NM_CONTROLLED=no is not set. You should do it only if there's no /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-interface file. If there is such file and you add interface to zone with this --add-interface option, make sure the zone is the same in both cases, otherwise the behavior would be undefined. Please also have a look at the firewalld(1) man page in the Concepts section. For permanent association of interface with a zone, see also 'How to set or change a zone for a connection?' in firewalld.zones(5).

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] --change-interface=interface
    If the interface is under control of NetworkManager, it is at first connected to change the zone for the connection that is using the interface. If this fails, the zone binding is created in firewalld and the limitations below apply. For interfaces that are not under control of NetworkManager, firewalld tries to change the ZONE setting in the ifcfg file, if the file exists.

    Change zone the interface interface is bound to to zone zone. It's basically --remove-interface followed by --add-interface. If the interface has not been bound to a zone before, it behaves like --add-interface. If zone is omitted, default zone will be used.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] --query-interface=interface
    Query whether interface interface is bound to zone zone. Returns 0 if true, 1 otherwise.

[--permanent] --remove-interface=interface
    If the interface is under control of NetworkManager, it is at first connected to change the zone for the connection that is using the interface. If this fails, the zone binding is created in firewalld and the limitations below apply.

    For the addition or change of interfaces that are not under control of NetworkManager: firewalld tries to change the ZONE setting in the ifcfg file, if an ifcfg file exists that is using the interface.

    Only for the removal of interfaces that are not under control of NetworkManager: firewalld is not trying to change the ZONE setting in the ifcfg file. This is needed to make sure that an ifdown of the interface will not result in a reset of the zone setting to the default zone. Only the zone binding is then removed in firewalld then.

    Remove binding of interface interface from zone it was previously added to.

  Options to Handle Bindings of Sources

Binding a source to a zone means that this zone settings will be used to restrict traffic from this source.

A source address or address range is either an IP address or a network IP address with a mask for IPv4 or IPv6 or a MAC address or an ipset with the ipset: prefix. For IPv4, the mask can be a network mask or a plain number. For IPv6 the mask is a plain number. The use of host names is not supported.

Options in this section affect only one particular zone. If used with --zone=zone option, they affect the zone zone. If the option is omitted, they affect default zone (see --get-default-zone).

For a list of predefined zones use firewall-cmd [--permanent] --get-zones.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] --list-sources
    List sources that are bound to zone zone as a space separated list. If zone is omitted, default zone will be used.

[--permanent] [--zone=zone] --add-source=source[/mask]|MAC|ipset:ipset
    Bind the source to zone zone. If zone is omitted, default zone will be used.

[--zone=zone] --change-source=source[/mask]|MAC|ipset:ipset
    Change zone the source is bound to to zone zone. It's basically --remove-source followed by --add-source. If the source has not been bound to a zone before, it behaves like --add-source. If zone is omitted, default zone will be used.

  Direct Options

DEPRECATED

    The direct interface has been deprecated. It will be removed in a future release. It is superseded by policies, see firewalld.policies(5).

The direct options give a more direct access to the firewall. These options require user to know basic iptables concepts, i.e. table (filter/mangle/nat/...), chain (INPUT/OUTPUT/FORWARD/...), commands (-A/-D/-I/...), parameters (-p/-s/-d/-j/...) and targets (ACCEPT/DROP/REJECT/...).

Direct options should be used only as a last resort when it's not possible to use for example --add-service=service or --add-rich-rule='rule'.

Warning: Direct rules behavior is different depending on the value of FirewallBackend. See CAVEATS in firewalld.direct(5).

The first argument of each option has to be ipv4 or ipv6 or eb. With ipv4 it will be for IPv4 (iptables(8)), with ipv6 for IPv6 (ip6tables(8)) and with eb for ethernet bridges (ebtables(8)).

[--permanent] --direct --get-all-chains
    Get all chains added to all tables. This option concerns only chains previously added with --direct --add-chain.

[--permanent] --direct --get-chains { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } table
    Get all chains added to table table as a space separated list. This option concerns only chains previously added with --direct --add-chain.

[--permanent] --direct --add-chain { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } table chain
    Add a new chain with name chain to table table. Make sure there's no other chain with this name already.

    There already exist basic chains to use with direct options, for example INPUT_direct chain (see iptables-save | grep direct output for all of them). These chains are jumped into before chains for zones, i.e. every rule put into INPUT_direct will be checked before rules in zones.

[--permanent] --direct --remove-chain { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } table chain
    Remove chain with name chain from table table. Only chains previously added with --direct --add-chain can be removed this way.

[--permanent] --direct --query-chain { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } table chain
    Return whether a chain with name chain exists in table table. Returns 0 if true, 1 otherwise. This option concerns only chains previously added with --direct --add-chain.

[--permanent] --direct --get-all-rules
    Get all rules added to all chains in all tables as a newline separated list of the priority and arguments. This option concerns only rules previously added with --direct --add-rule.

[--permanent] --direct --get-rules { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } table chain
    Get all rules added to chain chain in table table as a newline separated list of the priority and arguments. This option concerns only rules previously added with --direct --add-rule.

[--permanent] --direct --add-rule { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } table chain priority args
    Add a rule with the arguments args to chain chain in table table with priority priority.

    The priority is used to order rules. Priority 0 means add rule on top of the chain, with a higher priority the rule will be added further down. Rules with the same priority are on the same level and the order of these rules is not fixed and may change. If you want to make sure that a rule will be added after another one, use a low priority for the first and a higher for the following.

[--permanent] --direct --remove-rule { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } table chain priority args
    Remove a rule with priority and the arguments args from chain chain in table table. Only rules previously added with --direct --add-rule can be removed this way.

[--permanent] --direct --remove-rules { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } table chain
    Remove all rules in the chain with name chain exists in table table. This option concerns only rules previously added with --direct --add-rule in this chain.

[--permanent] --direct --query-rule { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } table chain priority args
    Return whether a rule with priority and the arguments args exists in chain chain in table table. Returns 0 if true, 1 otherwise. This option concerns only rules previously added with --direct --add-rule.

--direct --passthrough { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } args
    Pass a command through to the firewall. args can be all iptables, ip6tables and ebtables command line arguments. This command is untracked, which means that firewalld is not able to provide information about this command later on, also not a listing of the untracked passthoughs.

[--permanent] --direct --get-all-passthroughs
    Get all passthrough rules as a newline separated list of the ipv value and arguments.

[--permanent] --direct --get-passthroughs { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb }
    Get all passthrough rules for the ipv value as a newline separated list of the priority and arguments.

[--permanent] --direct --add-passthrough { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } args
    Add a passthrough rule with the arguments args for the ipv value.

[--permanent] --direct --remove-passthrough { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } args
    Remove a passthrough rule with the arguments args for the ipv value.

[--permanent] --direct --query-passthrough { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } args
    Return whether a passthrough rule with the arguments args exists for the ipv value. Returns 0 if true, 1 otherwise.

  Panic Options

--panic-on
    Enable panic mode. All incoming and outgoing packets are dropped, active connections will expire. Enable this only if there are serious problems with your network environment. For example if the machine is getting hacked in.

    This is a runtime only change.

--panic-off
    Disable panic mode. After disabling panic mode established connections might work again, if panic mode was enabled for a short period of time.

    This is a runtime only change.

--query-panic
    Returns 0 if panic mode is enabled, 1 otherwise.

EXAMPLES

  Example 1

Enable http service in default zone. This is runtime only change, i.e. effective until restart.

    firewall-cmd --add-service=http

  Example 2

Enable port 443/tcp immediately and permanently in default zone. To make the change effective immediately and also after restart we need two commands. The first command makes the change in runtime configuration, i.e. makes it effective immediately, until restart. The second command makes the change in permanent configuration, i.e. makes it effective after restart.

    firewall-cmd --add-port=443/tcp
    firewall-cmd --permanent --add-port=443/tcp
