The firewall is enabled by default on Red Hat Enterprise Linux. However, the firewall must be configured to allow traffic through the port used by Jamf Pro (typically 8443).

  1. Check to see if the firewall is running by executing the following command:
    systemctl status firewalld
  2. If the firewall is "active":
    1. List the ports that are open by executing the following command:
      sudo firewall-cmd --list-ports
    2. Edit the firewall configuration to allow access to port 8443 by executing the following commands:
      sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=8443/tcp --permanent
sudo firewall-cmd –reload
