Hi. I wanted to know if it’s needed to install a firewall on a linux desktop/laptop. Why yes or why no?

      Yes, they’re giving “very simplistic” and also demonstrating how to deny and add access in multiple ways.

      It’s also not uncommon to do things like that. The default firewall config in Fedora is wide open for every port above 1024.
