1. I thought every running process including firewall process has to have a socket [IP Port] associated with it.
Not sure if firewall process was excluded from the rule, becoz the firewall process port does not show up no matter what.
This makes me believe that there can be processes like firewalld that can run without acquiring a port ? Interesting but some new concept to me.
2. Also, from @Chubler_XL's statement I understand that there is no way to remotely monitor the firewall like we monitor SMTP [port 25] or SSH [port 22].
Are both my understanding correct ?

eurephiadm-fwprofiles
eurephiadm fwprofiles(7) eurephiadm fwprofiles(7)
NAME
eurephiadm-fwprofiles - Configuring eurephia firewall profiles
SYNOPSIS
eurephiadm fwprofiles --list|-l [-v|--verbose] [-a|--accessprofile <acc. ID>] [-f|--fw-destination <name>] [-i|--uid <user ID>]
[-n|--username <username>] [-c|--certid <cert ID>] [-e|--email <e-mail address>] [-d|--digest <certificate SHA1 digest>]
eurephiadm fwprofiles --add|-A [-d|--description <Description>] [-f|--fw-destination <name>]
eurephiadm fwprofiles --delete|-D [-a|--accessprofile <acc. ID>] [-f|--fw-destination <name>]
DESCRIPTION
The eurephia plug-in can take advantage of the OS firewall to give a fine grained access control of each OpenVPN client. The preconfigured
firewall chains available to eurephia needs to be defined using this eurephiadm command. When the firewall profiles are defined here, they
can be assigned to the different user accesses you have enabled.
MODES
Available modes for the fwprofiles command are:
-A | --add
[-d|--description <Description>] [-f|--fw-destination <name>]
Add a new firewall profile. Both --description and --fw-destination are required. The --description is just to give a human read-
able description of the firewall profile name and is only used in the different reports available in eurephiadm.
-D | --delete
[-a|--accessprofile <acc. ID>] [-f|--fw-destination <name>]
Delete a firewall profile. Either --accessprofile or --fw-destination must be provided.
-l | --list
[-v|--verbose] [-a|--accessprofile <acc. ID>] [-f|--fw-destination <name>] [-i|--uid <user ID>] [-n|--username <username>]
[-c|--certid <cert ID>] [-e|--email <e-mail address>] [-d|--digest <certificate SHA1 digest>]
List available firewall profiles. Without any arguments, a simple overview over all registered firewall profiles. If the --verbose
argument is given, the list will be more comprehensive.
The rest of the arguments are filters which is used to reduce the length of the list. Multiple filters may be added, but they will
only work as additional "AND" argument in the query.
-h | --help
<mode> Show a help screen. Without any arguments, all modes are listed. Providing a mode will show more information about the cho-
sen mode.
FILTERS
These filters are used by the --list mode.
-a | --accessprofile <id>
Numeric ID defining the access profile ID.
-f | --fw-destination <name>
The firewall reference for the chain used by the OS when filtering the OpenVPN client traffic.
-i | --uid <user id>
Numeric user ID
-n | --username <username>
User name
-c | --certid <certid>
Numeric reference to a certificate
-e | --email <email addr>
e-mail address in certificates
-d | --digest <SHA1 digest>
Certificate SHA1 digest
