    <title>TC and interfaces</title>
    <link>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.shorewall/29656</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi guys!

I'm having a little problem.
The scenario is:
* Ubuntu 12.10
* 2 ADSL (PPPoE) connections. One on eth1 and the other on eth2
* I run pppd and get both working ok.
* In /etc/default/shorewall put "wait interface ppp0 ppp1" for wait both 
connections on reboot.
* I have a tcinterfaces for each ppp and tcclasses and tcfilters too.

The problems occurs when the system has been rebooted for an update and 
one interface never goes up again. I move on /etc/default/shorewall the 
line "wait interface ppp0 ppp1" to "wait interface ppp0" and reboot 
again to see what happend and problem still there!

What happend? The problem was the tcinterfaces, tcclasses and tcfilters 
have "ppp1" rules and because this link was down every time i start 
Shorewall.  Shorewall says "start failed".
I have to manually delete all lines on tc_ with ppp1 reference and then 
i can get shorewall up and running again.

Is there any way to get this working without have to create 2 different 
/etc/shorewall/* files for both cases? Something like "shorewall disable 
tc ISP1"

Best regards and thanks for read this email.

    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi Tom,

Fantastic, that worked perfectly.
I did see the FAQ but my internal range isn't NAT'd and I could quite figure
out what to do.
loc:: solved it perfectly.

Thank you very much.

Cheers
Adam

    <link>http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.security.shorewall/29646</link>
    <description>&lt;pre&gt;Hi all,

I have tried to figure out how to do this one but I think I have just
confused myself more.
My firewall is a 2 interface setup, the same box is my router to my uplink.

I'm not using nat at all and have a public IP range behind this machine.



net = eth0

loc = eth1


Most of my rules are mainly the basic 

HTTP(ACCEPT) net loc:111.111.111.112

SMTP(ACCEPT) net loc:111.111.111.113
etc

This time around though I wish to just redirect (or is it translate) a port
but because I'm not using nat etc I'm not sure if this is possible.

I have a mail server behind my firewall that already has a rule in place
SMTP(ACCEPT) net         loc:111.1111.111.111

So this allows inbound port 25 connections to the machine on loc no issues
at all.



What I want to do is have an incoming connection on port 26 to
111.111.111.111 BUT redirect it to 111.111.111.111 but on port 25, is this
possible?


Cheers
Adam

    Hello,

    I am currently attempting to masquerade traffic behind an internal interface (eth0) destined for the default gateway to go out of a firewall device located at the other end of an ipsec tunnel.  I have attempted to use the providers feature to do this, but I can not figure out how to keep the ipsec tunnel up while having the traffic forwarded.  At this point, the only thing I can think of is to exclude the far end IP address of the ipsec tunnel and leave everything else to pass through the other device.  However, I was hoping there was a much simpler alternative.

    Quick overview of network:

    [The Internet] &amp;lt;-----&amp;gt; [Corporate HQ - IPSec Device &amp;amp; Firewall (internal: 10.1.0.1)] &amp;lt;—ipsec—&amp;gt; [The Internet] &amp;lt;—ipsec—&amp;gt; [Remote Location – eth1] &amp;lt;—shorewall--&amp;gt; [Remote Location – eth0 (10.2.0.1)] &amp;lt;---&amp;gt; [Internal Network (10.2.0.0/24)]

    I went through the shorewall documentation and was unable to find anywhere that shows this particular example.  I have tried using several configurations in the masq file, but to no avail:

    #INTERFACE SOURCE ADDRESS ...
    eth0 192.168.1.0/24 1.1.1.1

  That rule says that packets routed out of eth0 with SOURCE IP in 192.168.1.0/24 should have their SOURCE IP changed to 1.1.1.1
    #And also tried:
    eth0:10.1.0.1 eth0

  That rule is meaningless. 


    I am hoping the first example above is the correct format; however, that IP is on a far-end device.  Also, I do not have an ipsec0 device since I am using spdadd rules with raccoon that create the static routes of the internal network at headquarters.

    I am certain this is a very simple issue and a solution will be as well, but I cannot seem to wrap my mind around it.  I have included the shorewall &amp;amp; kernel versions below for reference.

    Shorewall version: 4.4.24.1
    Kernel version: 3.4.33-2.24-default (SMP x64)

  It might help us if you posted the output of 'shorewall dump' so we can see what your gateway configuration looks like. Be sure that ipsec-tools are installed before you capture the output.

  -Tom
  You do not need a parachute to skydive. You only need a parachute to skydive twice.

Thank you for your reply.  I had a feeling both of the commands would not help, but I was being hopeful.  At least now I'm certain of what the SOURCE ADDRESS implies (binding to a specific IP on an interface).

Please see attached shorewall dump.  Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

One correction -- use DROP rules rather than NOTRACK.

Thanks!  I will check that out - that could possibly help for the one 
place I was unable to lose shorewall due to the sheer complexity of the 
rules.

After running a series of tests that to some extent... emulate a &amp;lt; at &amp;gt;#$% 
ton of incoming UDP/DNS connections, I found that dropping shorewall 
altogether worked best for me - 2 things seemed to help, 1) the 
less/simpler the iptables rules, the better, and 2) not loading the 
connection tracking modules - at all, helped a lot.  In this setup, I 
saw CPU use drop a lot, and it does not overrun connection tracking.

Of course, this really limits what you can do with the firewall, but if 
your needs can be trimmed down and you can live without connection 
tracking and the convenience of shorewall, then this seems to help with 
this problem.  Of course, I am not sure to what extent this is specific 
to my setup/kernel/network/hardware - so mileage may vary considerably.

I hate to bring this up again, but I still can't get the documented 
version to work:'

I'm running Shorewall 4.5.16.1 (debian "sid")

The documented version is:

TPROXY(3129)    eth1                0.0.0.0/0   tcp        80          
-            !192.0.2.144

When I try that syntax, I receive the following error from 'shorewall check':

   ERROR: USER/GROUP only allowed in the OUTPUT chain 
/etc/shorewall/tcrules (line 20)

It appears to me that shorewall/tcrules doesn't have an "ORIGINAL DEST" column.

I am able to find the 'ORIGINAL DEST' column in shorewall/rules, however.

The doc at www.shorewall.net was wrong and has been corrected.

If you can characterize the attack, I have found that adding NOTRACK
rules in /etc/shorewall/conntrack that match the attack profile is
effective in reducing CPU utilization and conntrack table overflow.
