strict. You may need to adjust your firewall settings allow inbound requests so
that clients in your network can communicate with daemons on your Ceph nodes.
-For ``firewalld`` on RHEL 7, add port ``6789`` for Ceph Monitor nodes and ports
-``6800:7300`` for Ceph OSDs to the public zone and ensure that you make the
-setting permanent so that it is enabled on reboot. For example::
+For ``firewalld`` on RHEL 7, add the ``ceph-mon`` service for Ceph Monitor
+nodes and the ``ceph`` service for Ceph OSDs and MDSs to the public zone and
+ensure that you make the settings permanent so that they are enabled on reboot.
- sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=6789/tcp --permanent
+For example, on monitors::
+
+ sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service=ceph-mon --permanent
+
+and on OSDs and MDSs::
+
+ sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-service=ceph --permanent
+
+Once you have finished configuring firewalld with the ``--permanent`` flag, you can make the changes live immediately without rebooting::
+
+ sudo firewall-cmd --reload
For ``iptables``, add port ``6789`` for Ceph Monitors and ports ``6800:7300``
for Ceph OSDs. For example::
