checking firewall form

[Anu R]

Hi,

I want to check to see if the firewall is running, if its running I want to add the syslog port. If the firewall is not on, i would like to skip the step. 

I know i can use the when module but Im stumbling. Can you guys lmk what approach to take?

Thanks!!

Maybe like this:

- name: Check if firewall running

  service:

    name: firewalld

    state: started

  register: firewall_running

  check_mode: true

- name: Add syslog port to firewall

  ...

  when: not firewall_running is changed

Don’t I need conditions as well?
