Actually, there hasn't been much conversation on this. Thanks for
starting the conversation!
IMO, we should start with system defaults as first/primary goal, then
enable secondary configs in future passes. aka, address firewalld first
then iptables.
If we're able to get both done at the same time, then great -- but focus
should be on system default first.
What does everyone think of such an approach?
