This command is used to configure network firewall settings using the firewall-cmd
command-line tool. Let's break down the command:
firewall-cmd
: This is the command-line tool used to manipulate the firewall.--permanent
: This flag indicates that the changes made should be permanent, meaning they persist across system reboots.--zone=${block}
: This flag specifies the firewall zone to which the following rule or configuration change should be applied. The${block}
variable should be replaced with the appropriate firewall zone name, for example, "public", "internal", or "block".--change-interface=${enp1s0}
: This flag is used to associate or change the network interface (in this case,${enp1s0}
should be replaced with the actual network interface name, e.g., "eth0" or "ens33") linked with the specified firewall zone.
To sum up, this command sets the network interface ${enp1s0}
to be associated with the firewall zone ${block}
on a permanent basis. This means that all network traffic coming through that interface will be subject to the firewall rules defined in the specified block zone.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
