Task - Firewall Configuration

Problem:

The Nautilus system admins team has rolled out a web UI application for their backup utility on the Nautilus backup server within the Stratos Datacenter. This application operates on port 5000, and firewalld is active on the server. To meet operational needs, the following requirements have been identified:

Allow all incoming connections on port 5000/tcp. Ensure the zone is set to public.

Solution:

  1. ssh into backup server

  2. Allow incoming connections on port 5000/tcp:

     sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=5000/tcp --permanent
    
  3. Reload the firewall to apply the changes:

     sudo firewall-cmd --reload
    
  4. Verify the changes to ensure the port is open:

     sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --list-ports
