Disable firewall on OEL 7

The firewall on Oracle Linux 7 system is enabled by default. 

Fedora 18 introduced firewalld as a replacement for the previous iptables service. Since RHEL7 and Oracle Linux 7 are based on Fedora 19, the switch from iptables service to firewalld is now part of the Enterprise Linux distributions.

Use the following two commands to check the status and them stop the firewall

systemctl status firewalld

service firewalld stop
