cdist-type__firewalld_rule(7)

Overview

This cdist type allows you to manage rules in firewalld using the direct way (i.e. no zone support).

Required parameters

rule: The rule to apply. Essentially an firewalld command line without firewalld in front of it.

protocol: Either ipv4, ipv4 or eb. See firewall-cmd(1)

table: The table to use (like filter or nat). See firewall-cmd(1).

chain: The chain to use (like INPUT_direct or FORWARD_direct). See firewall-cmd(1).

priority: The priority to use (0 is topmost). See firewall-cmd(1).

Optional parameters

state: 'present' or 'absent', defaults to 'present'

Examples

# Allow access from entrance.place4.ungleich.ch
__firewalld_rule entrance \
    --protocol ipv4 \
    --table filter \
    --chain INPUT_direct \
    --priority 0 \
    --rule '-s entrance.place4.ungleich.ch -j ACCEPT'
# Allow forwarding of traffic from br0
__firewalld_rule vm-forward --protocol ipv4 \
    --table filter \
    --chain FORWARD_direct \
    --priority 0 \
    --rule '-i br0 -j ACCEPT'
# Ensure old rule is absent - warning, the rule part must stay the same!
__firewalld_rule vm-forward
    --protocol ipv4 \
    --table filter \
    --chain FORWARD_direct \
    --priority 0 \
    --rule '-i br0 -j ACCEPT' \
