Installation guide
--enabled or --enable
Reject incoming connections that are not in response to outbound requests, such as DNS
replies or DHCP requests. If access to services running on this machine is needed, you can
choose to allow specific services through the firewall.
--disabled or --disable
Do not configure any iptables rules.
--trust=
Listing a device here, such as eth0, allows all traffic coming from that device to go through
the firewall. To list more than one device, use --trust eth0 --trust eth1. Do NOT use a
comma-separated format such as --trust eth0, eth1.
<incoming>
Replace with one or more of the following to allow the specified services through the fire-
wall.
• --ssh
• --telnet
• --smtp
• --http
• --ftp
--port=
You can specify that ports be allowed through the firewall using the port:protocol format. For
example, to allow IMAP access through your firewall, specify imap:tcp. Numeric ports can
also be specified explicitly; for example, to allow UDP packets on port 1234 through, specify
1234:udp. To specify multiple ports, separate them by commas.
firstboot (optional)
Determine whether the Setup Agent starts the first time the system is booted. If enabled,
the firstboot package must be installed. If not specified, this option is disabled by default.
--enable or --enabled
The Setup Agent is started the first time the system boots.
--disable or --disabled
The Setup Agent is not started the first time the system boots.
--reconfig
Enable the Setup Agent to start at boot time in reconfiguration mode. This mode enables
the language, mouse, keyboard, root password, security level, time zone, and networking
configuration options in addition to the default ones.
halt (optional)
Halt the system after the installation has successfully completed. This is similar to a manual
installation, where anaconda displays a message and waits for the user to press a key be-
