firewalld is a firewall service daemon that provides a dynamic customizable firewall with a D-Bus interface.

We can use yum or dnf to install firewalld on Fedora 34. In this tutorial we discuss both methods but you only need to choose one of method to install firewalld.

Install firewalld on Fedora 34 Using dnf

Update yum database with dnf using the following command.

sudo dnf makecache --refresh

Fedora 34 - x86_64                               20 kB/s | 6.6 kB     00:00
Fedora 34 openh264 (From Cisco) - x86_64        1.4 kB/s | 989  B     00:00
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64                       68 kB/s | 6.5 kB     00:00
Fedora 34 - x86_64 - Updates                    3.5 kB/s | 6.2 kB     00:01
Fedora Modular 34 - x86_64 - Updates             17 kB/s | 5.9 kB     00:00
