Solved: Configure permanent firewall rule on CentOS 6.7 to allow incoming http connections on 8080 port from any address.

I am trying to install Jira 7.1.2 on CentOS 6.7. After installation, when I try to connect to running JIRA instance from web browser from another computer in the same network - I get time out.

However I know, that Jira is installed and listening. The output of netstat -nap | grep LISTEN
