Installation Perquisite for EFA/Cpanel/CWP7/VestaCP: Part 2 Disable Firewalld

CentOS 7 comes with firewalld by default. So disable firewalld because Cpanel & CWP uses CSF Firewall & LFD with IPTables. Here
CSF - ConfigServer Security & Firewall
LFD - Login Failure Daemon
# systemctl stop firewalld.service

# systemctl disable firewalld.service
Removed symlink /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/firewalld.service.
Removed symlink /etc/systemd/system/dbus-org.fedoraproject.FirewallD1.service.

# systemctl mask firewalld.service
Created symlink from /etc/systemd/system/firewalld.service to /dev/null.
Reboot your server so that all updates can take affect and then check your Firewalld Status.
# reboot 
# systemctl status firewalld
firewalld status

In EFA, FirewallD & Fail2Ban Intrusion Detector comes with by default. But I prefer to use CSF. So i will disable firewalld services.
