I am planning to install firewall on linux redhat 8. I would be grateful
if anyone could point me to good firewall installation guide on the net
(I am doing my search as well).

What is rule of thumb in installing firewall? And guidelines in
installing firewall?

For newbies,
1. use gnome-lokkit to setup a standard firewall
2. Modify /etc/sysconfig/iptables according to your exact needs. You need to know the syntax of iptables and the syntax of this file before you do so.
3. See that the service iptables is started everytime you boot.
