how to configure the firewall in vanilla os

[Hesham136]

Do you use ufw or firewalld ? & what is the default firewall configuration for vanilla os 2 ?

and how to modify it ?

[Hesham136]

i found a solution but with gui not cli
first i searched for the world "firewall" in vanilla os github repo and found out that they use firewalld .

there is an app to configure the firewalld through gui called "firewall-config"

first search in the repo by openning the terminal & type
apt search firewall-config

then to install the app run the following commands

1- abroot pkg add firewall-config

2-abroot pkg apply

then reboot

3-if the system shows that there is on going update run abroot status -V & if you found in the last lines of the output " unstaged: firewall-config "

4-run "abroot pkg apply" again (the A root needs the command & the b root also needs it (i don't know the reason it's not documented)

then reboot

important note : after running any "abroot" command the system will ask for the root password through polkit (sudo isn't allowed)
