Problem statement

It often occurs that firewalld blocks traffic, but the user doesn't know or understand that firewalld is the one doing the blocking.

Common scenarios:

  1. newly installed daemon, but service not added to firewalld
  2. VM or container trying to communicate with host

Enhancement

Other thoughts

  • A separate entity (say a desktop environment) could listen for these reports and present them to the user. It could be a simple allow/deny dialog which would magically add the service/rules to firewalld.
