As a matter of interest, how does firewalld compare with shorewall?
They look rather similar.

I am running CentOS-7 on a home server, with shorewall.
I was not aware until I read this thread that firewalld was installed,
but I find now that it is running.
I'm rather surprised there have been no conflicts with shorewall.
Maybe one over-rules the other?

(I notice it is installed but not running on my Fedora-20 laptop.)
