NAME

   firewalld.service - firewalld service configuration files

SYNOPSIS

   /etc/firewalld/services/service.xml
   /usr/lib/firewalld/services/service.xml

DESCRIPTION

   A firewalld service configuration file provides the information of a
   service entry for firewalld. The most important configuration options
   are ports, modules and destination addresses.

   This example configuration file shows the structure of a service
   configuration file:

       <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
       <service>
         <short>My Service</short>
         <description>description</description>
         <port port="137" protocol="tcp"/>
         <protcol value="igmp"/>
         <module name="nf_conntrack_netbios_ns"/>
         <destination ipv4="224.0.0.251" ipv6="ff02::fb"/>
       </service>

OPTIONS

   The config can contain these tags and attributes. Some of them are
   mandatory, others optional.

   service
   The mandatory service start and end tag defines the service. This tag
   can only be used once in a service configuration file. There are
   optional attributes for services:

   version="string"
       To give the service a version.

   short
   Is an optional start and end tag and is used to give an icmptype a more
   readable name.

   description
   Is an optional start and end tag to have a description for a icmptype.

   port
   Is an optional empty-element tag and can be used several times to have
   more than one port entry. All attributes of a port entry are mandatory:

   port="string"
       The port string can be a single port number or a port range
       portid-portid or also empty to match a protocol only.

   protocol="string"
       The protocol value can either be tcp or udp.

   For compatibility with older firewalld versions, it is possible to add
   protocols with the port option where the port is empty. With the
   addition of native protocol support in the service, this it not needed
   anymore. These entries will automatically be converted to protocols.
   With the next modification of the service file, the enries will be
   listed as protocols.

   protocol
   Is an optional empty-element tag and can be used several times to have
   more than one protocol entry. A protocol entry has exactly one
   attribute:

   value="string"
       The protocol can be any protocol supported by the system. Please
       have a look at /etc/protocols for supported protocols.

   source-port
   Is an optional empty-element tag and can be used several times to have
   more than one source port entry. All attributes of a source port entry
   are mandatory:

   port="string"
       The port string can be a single port number or a port range
       portid-portid.

   protocol="string"
       The protocol value can either be tcp or udp.

   module
   Is an optional empty-element tag and can be used several times to
   enable more than one netfilter kernel helper for the service. A module
   entry has exactly one attribute:

   name="string"
       Defines the name of the kernel netfilter helper as a string.

   destination
   Is an optional empty-element tag and can be used only once. The
   destination specifies the destination network as a network IP address
   (optional with /mask), or a plain IP address. The use of hostnames is
   not recommended, because these will only be resolved at service
   activation and transmitted to the kernel. For more information in this
   element, please have a look at --destination in iptables(8) and
   ip6tables(8).

   ipv4="address[/mask]"
       The IPv4 destination address with optional mask.

   ipv6="address[/mask]"
       The IPv6 destination address with optional mask.
