Permanent

The permanent options are not affecting runtime directly. These options are only available after a reload or restart. To have runtime and permanent setting, you need to supply both. The –per­man­ent option needs to be the first option for all permanent calls.

panic mode

Enable panic
firewa­ll-cmd --enab­le-­panic
Disable panic mode
firewa­ll-cmd --disa­ble­-panic
Query panic mode
firewa­ll-cmd --quer­y-panic
Block all network traffic in case of emergency

Disable masque­rading in a zone
firewa­ll-cmd [--zon­e=<­zon­e>] --remo­ve-­mas­querade
Query masque­rading in a zone
firewa­ll-cmd [--zon­e=<­zon­e>] --quer­y-m­asq­uerade

Direct options

Pass a command through to the firewall. <ar­gs> can be all iptables, ip6tables and ebtables command line arguments
firewa­ll-cmd --direct --pass­through { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } <ar­gs>
Add a new chain <ch­ain> to a table <ta­ble­>.
firewa­ll-cmd [--per­manent] --direct --add-­chain { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } <ta­ble> <ch­ain>
Remove a chain with name <ch­ain> from table <ta­ble­>.
firewa­ll-cmd [--per­manent] --direct --remo­ve-­chain { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } <ta­ble> <ch­ain>
Query if a chain with name <ch­ain> exists in table <ta­ble­>. Returns 0 if true, 1 otherwise.
firewa­ll-cmd [--per­manent] --direct --quer­y-chain { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } <ta­ble> <ch­ain>
Get all chains added to table <ta­ble> as a space separated list.
firewa­ll-cmd [--per­manent] --direct --get-­chains { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } <ta­ble>
Add a rule with the arguments <ar­gs> to chain <ch­ain> in table <ta­ble> with priority <pr­ior­ity­>.
firewa­ll-cmd [--per­manent] --direct --add-rule { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } <ta­ble> <ch­ain> <pr­ior­ity> <ar­gs>
Remove a rule with the arguments <ar­gs> from chain <ch­ain> in table <ta­ble­>.
firewa­ll-cmd [--per­manent] --direct --remo­ve-rule { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } <ta­ble> <ch­ain> <ar­gs>
Query if a rule with the arguments <ar­gs> exists in chain <ch­ain> in table <ta­ble­>. Returns 0 if true, 1 otherwise.
firewa­ll-cmd [--per­manent] --direct --quer­y-rule { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } <ta­ble> <ch­ain> <ar­gs>
Get all rules added to chain <ch­ain> in table <ta­ble> as a newline separated list of arguments.
firewa­ll-cmd [--per­manent] --direct --get-­rules { ipv4 | ipv6 | eb } <ta­ble> <ch­ain>
The direct options give a more direct access to the firewall. These options require user to know basic iptables concepts.
