Hello, Is it possible to redirect http incoming request for an IP address to a domain name? For example, if someone entered "1.2.3.4" IP in his\her browser then it redirect to "example.net". Can Firewalld do these kind of tasks?
Thank you.

Maybe you're looking for "forward ports". That allows redirecting traffic to a different ip and port. But it works for _incoming_ and _forwarded_ traffic. It does _not_ work for traffic originating from the host running firewalld, i.e. output traffic.
Thank you. I want HTTP protocol. Could Firewalld support that protocol?

Yes. It supports all protocols.
Either through services. e.g.
# firewall-cmd --add-service http
or by port numbers
# firewall-cmd --add-port 8080
No, HTTP protocol for redirect.

Excuse me, I think my question was vague. When a user enter my web server IP address in his\her Browser like FireFox, Brave or... then Firewalld forward that IP to a domain like "https://example.net". Is it possible by Firewalld? I don't like to use Apache for it.

Sure.
# firewall-cmd --forward-port port=80:proto=tcp:to-port=8080:to-addr=10.10.10.10

Sounds like you're looking for HTTP redirect. No. firewalld can not do that. It only does port/IP level redirection.
Thus, Firewalld can't understand the request from Browsers?

I think you need to read up on how HTTP and TCP/IP work. It's far too big a subject to teach you that here.

Apache does HTTP. If you don't like it, you'll need to choose another web server. But firewalld is NOT a web server. It doesn't work at that level. It's an IP firewall.
