firewalld - default debug level too low

Latest response

Using RHEL 7.4 and noticed the firewalld log wasn't logging blocked http connection attempts by default. The debug level is set too low out of the box. It should be high enough that a blocked connection attempt is clearly logged.

Thoughts?

In fact it seems the debug level will not affect whether blocked connections are logged. A rule must be added like so: https://basildoncoder.com/blog/logging-connections-with-firewalld.html
