I'm not familar with `systemctl status firewalld`, could the output of

   iptables -L


be posted here?  That request is based on the assumption that
behind "systemd firewall" is actual `iptables`

Tests on localhost don't include going through a firewall ...

I would check with `get pxelinux.0` or another file that the TFTP server
should have. And make that check return a succes, at least return
a message like "file not found". Surely not "Permission denied".

See http://www.syslinux.org/archives/2013-August/020777.html

Use it also as an example why it is good to reply below the text.
At least enjoy that you can read in discussion order the question
and the answers.
