Are you really sure it happens because of the firewall? Anything in the logs indicating it happens because firewalld fiddles with something? I gues by firewall you mean firewalld. Usually such situations can come from NetworkManager with its default configuration. If, for some reason, an ethernet device looses link for a short time, NetworkManager is eager to bring down the interface and the result is the nice "no route to host" situation. To prevent NM from "helping" you in this situation, you have to install the server subpackage from NM - or get rid of it :-) Regards, Simon
