Firewalld 1.1 Released With New Services Added

Following last summer's release of Firewalld 1.0, out today is Firewalld 1.1 as the next major update to this Linux firewall daemon.

Firewalld 1.1 adds support for a number of new services for easily adjusting the firewall behavior and a number of low-level improvements.

- HTTP/3 support is made easily exposed for easily opening up UDP port 443 for this next iteration of HTTP using QUIC as the transport protocol.

- Jellyfin support for opening up its HTTP / HTTPS / auto-discovery ports for this free software media system.

- WS-Discovery and WP-Discovery Client support for opening up the ports for the Web Services Dynamic Discovery usage.

- Apple Filing Protocol (AFP) service for opening up TCP port 548 for the Apple Filing Protocol (nee AppleTalk Filing Protocol) that is part of the Apple File Services.

- A ZeroTier service file for this secure networking between on-premise, cloud, desktop, and mobile devices.
