Firewalld : Basic Operation

 

This is the Basic Operation of Firewalld.

The definition of services is set to zones on Firewalld.

To enable Firewall, assosiate a zone to a NIC with related commands.

[1]. To use Firewalld, start the Service.

[root@dlp ~]# systemctl enable --now firewalld

[2]. By default, [public] zone is applied with a NIC and cockpit, dhcpv6-client, ssh are allowed. When operating with [firewall-cmd] command, if you input the command without [--zone=***] specification, then, configuration is set to the default zone.

# display the default zone

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --get-default-zone

public

# display current settings

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --list-all

[4]. Add or Remove allowed services.

The change will be back after rebooting the system. If you change settings permanently, add the [--permanent] option.

# for example, add [http] (the change will be valid at once)

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --add-service=http

success

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --list-service

cockpit dhcpv6-client http ssh

# for example, remove [http]

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --remove-service=http

success

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --list-service

cockpit dhcpv6-client ssh

# for example, add [http] permanently. (this permanent case, it's necessary to reload the Firewalld to apply change)

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --add-service=http --permanent

success

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --reload

success

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --list-service

cockpit dhcpv6-client http ssh

[5]. Add or remove allowed ports.

# for example, add [TCP 465]

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --add-port=465/tcp

success

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --list-port

465/tcp

# for example, remove [TCP 465]

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --remove-port=465/tcp

success

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --list-port

 

# for example, add [TCP 465] permanently

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --add-port=465/tcp --permanent

success

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --reload

success

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --list-port

465/tcp

[6]. Add or remove prohibited ICMP types.

# for example, add [echo-request] to prohibit it

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --add-icmp-block=echo-request

success

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --list-icmp-blocks

echo-request

# for example, remove [echo-request]

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --remove-icmp-block=echo-request

success

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --list-icmp-blocks

# display available ICMP types

[root@dlp ~]# firewall-cmd --get-icmptypes

C++ How to use Date and Time

The C++ standard library does not provide a proper date type. C++ inherits the structs and functions for date and time manipulation from C. To access date and time related functions and structures, you would need to include <ctime> header file in your C++ program. There are four time-related types: clock_t, time_t, size_t , and tm . The types clock_t, size_t and time_t are capable of representing the system time and date as some sort of integer. The structure type tm holds the date and time in the form of a C structure having the following elements: struct tm { int tm_sec ; // seconds of minutes from 0 to 61 int tm_min ; // minutes of hour from 0 to 59 int tm_hour ; // hours of day from 0 to 24 int tm_mday ; // day of month from 1 to 31 int tm_mon ; // month of year from 0 to 11 int tm_year ; // year since 1900 int tm_wday ; // days since sunday int tm_yday ; // days since January 1st int tm_isdst ; // hours of daylight savin...

C++ References

A reference variable is an alias, that is, another name for an already existing variable. Once a reference is initialized with a variable, either the variable name or the reference name may be used to refer to the variable. C++ References vs Pointers: References are often confused with pointers but three major differences between references and pointers are: You cannot have NULL references. You must always be able to assume that a reference is connected to a legitimate piece of storage. Once a reference is initialized to an object, it cannot be changed to refer to another object. Pointers can be pointed to another object at any time. A reference must be initialized when it is created. Pointers can be initialized at any time. Creating References in C++: Think of a variable name as a label attached to the variable's location in memory. You can then think of a reference as a second label attached to that memory location. Therefore, you can access the contents of the variabl...

Lambda Function with Amazon SNS

  Amazon SNS is a service used for push notification. In this chapter, we will explain working of AWS Lambda and Amazon SNS with the help of an example where will perform the following actions − Create Topic in SNS Service and use AWS Lambda Add Topics to CloudWatch Send SNS text message on phone number given. Requisites To create Topic in SNS Service and use AWS Lambda Add Topics to CloudWatch, we need not follow the steps given below − Create Topic in SNS Create Role for permission in IAM Create AWS Lambda Function Publish to topic to activate trigger Check the message details in CloudWatch service. To send SNS text message on phone number given, we need to do the following − Add code in AWS Lambda to send message to your phone. Example In this example, we will create a topic in SNS. When details are entered in the topic to publish, AWS Lambda is triggered. The topic details are logged in CloudWatch and a message is sent on phone by AWS Lambda. Here is a basic block diagram which...
