Is there a way to inherit config from one zone to another? For a simple
example, lets say I have a "public" zone that allows services
http/https. Now I want some developers to have access to mysql from a
static IP/subnet. I can make a new "developer" zone that allows service
mysql and add their IPs/subnets as sources, but unless I also
http/https, they'll lose web access.
I know I can do this with rich rules in "public", but that's harder to
manage (and feels more like short-circuiting firewalld). I can add the
same services as "public" to "developer", but now I have to manage that
service list in each zone.
It'd be nice to be able to have "developer" inherit services from
"public", or make it a sub-zone of "public", or something like that.
That way, managing developer IPs is just add/remove on the "developer"
zone, while managing general services is still just add/remove on the
"public" zone.
