[ovirt-users] Ovirt and Shorewall

Hello All,

thanks for the replies.

As far as I can tell with limited experience, Firewalld is supported on
both engine-setup and
when adding a Centos7 host.
I made a first attempt to translate the resulting Firewalld rules to a
Shorewalld setup, this failed.
I will look into this further.
Greetings, J.
