Managing network interfaces, firewalls, and advanced networking features

Red Hat Customer Content Services

Abstract

Using the networking capabilities of Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL), you can configure your host to meet your organization's network and security requirements. For example:
  • You can configure bonds, VLANs, bridges, tunnels and other network types to connect the host to the network.
  • You can build performance-critical firewalls for the local host and the entire network. RHEL contains packet filtering software, such as the firewalld service, the nftables framework, and Express Data Path (XDP).
  • RHEL also supports advanced networking features, such as policy-based routing and Multipath TCP (MPTCP).
