   Yep, true.Individual zones for each type of network seems to offer choice and versatility from Firewalld. But a user could end up using the same zone for all networks, because it appears as the default one when doing the network <=> zone assignment in NetworkManager. I don't use NetworkManager so not sure how it works.

   Hmmn, it should have been a package for user to install at will, rather than a replacement of an understandable firewall.


Thanks.
