Firewalld is from our fedora friends. firewalld comes with a gui if the use flag is activated for it. firewalld is an alternative to iptables & nftables.
Warning
firewalld is very buggy under gentoo & funtoo, the init process refuses to stop among other things. it's really bad, pre alpha quality. go to nftables, or iptables now.
net-firewall/nftables
net-firewall/iptables
Installation
root # emerge net-firewall/firewalld
gui
If the gui is merged in, to load it:
root # firewall-applet
init
to start:
root # /etc/init.d/firewalld start
to stop:
root # pkill -9 firewalld && /etc/init.d/firewalld stop
probably required:
root # rc-update add consolekit root # rc-update add dbus
