Looking for the best way to control who can access my server. installed firewalld, but I'm looking for an easy interface to manage it. if not - how can I revert back to iptables ? THanks

  Hello :) You can install a third-party application such as CSF to manage your firewall rules via Web Host Manager if you use iptables: ConfigServer Security & Firewall There's a thread on disabling firewalld at: Using Iptables instead of Firewalld in Centos 7 Thank you.

  There is a `firewall-config` GUI for firewalld - but there is little to no documentation, threads or blogs about it. And no one seems to every talk about it. Why? How can I get it run it on my WHM/cPanel Centos 7 VPS? I installed `yum install firewall-config` via my WHM Root Terminal - its seemingly installed just fine, but I can't figure out how to launch it from WHM.

  Upon further research the firewalld gui is a client gui (a server installed app) - not a web gui. Thus the only way to interact with the client gui is from the server itself which, for 99.99999999% of everyone, is not an option.
