  • How to stop firewalld / nftables tracking DNS queries in RHEL 8

    Posted on

    Hi all,

    In RHEL 7 and earlier we could stop iptables from filling its ip_conntrack table up by using the NOTRACK option.

    In RHEL 8 iptables is deprecated, so I need to find an alternative way of doing this.

    Ideally I want to be able to use firewalld to do this, but I can live with using the --direct option of firewalld if required.

    All suggestions would be appreciated.
