Release 8.0, Flidas 32-bit, Kernel Linux 4.4.0-177-generic i686, MATE 1.12.1,

The firewall status can be checked through system/prefs/internet & network/firewall congig. But there's no icon to add to the lower panel. For the firewall in puppy linux there is an indicator icon that shows firewall status on or off.
I've searched but cannot find one for trisquel/ubuntu. Why not ? If the tiny puppy can have an indicator why can't big dog Trisquel ?

Yes I'd like a simple icon that shows firewall on/off status rather than pressing menu buttons which takes at least 16 seconds.

I have studied the history of shields. So I am a bit fussy about shields. But before that, I would like to confirm whether you can modify/design the shape of the shield or not. Or are there other ready-made options (of the shapes of the shields)?

Sorry I have no information on how to modify the design. As for ready-made shield shapes you could try system/preferences/look and feel. Although I'm not familiar with altering the look/shape of icons.

What sort of shield design do you want ?

I'm sorry but that is an off-topic. But you too seem to like shields. So maybe we can talk about it in the future maybe in Troll Lounge or else if you make a thread about it.
