< li > An OLD_PING_HANDLING option has been added to shorewall.conf.
2003-01-31 22:50:51 +01:00
When set to Yes, Shorewall ping handling is as it has always been (see http://www.shorewall.net/ping.html).< br >
2003-02-04 16:26:02 +01:00
< br >
When OLD_PING_HANDLING=No, icmp echo (ping) is handled via rules and
policies just like any other connection request. The FORWARDPING=Yes option
in shorewall.conf and the 'noping' and 'filterping' options in /etc/shorewall/interfaces
will all generate an error.< br >
< br >
< / li >
< li > It is now possible to direct Shorewall to create a "label"
such as<61> "eth0:0" for IP addresses that it creates under ADD_IP_ALIASES=Yes
and ADD_SNAT_ALIASES=Yes. This is done by specifying the label instead of
2003-01-31 22:50:51 +01:00
just the interface name:< br >
2003-02-04 16:26:02 +01:00
<20> < br >
<20> <> a) In the INTERFACE column of /etc/shorewall/masq< br >
<20> <> b) In the INTERFACE column of /etc/shorewall/nat< br >
<20> < / li >
< li > When an interface name is entered in the SUBNET column of
the /etc/shorewall/masq file, Shorewall previously masqueraded traffic from
only the first subnet defined on that interface. It did not masquerade traffic
2003-01-31 22:50:51 +01:00
from:< br >
2003-02-04 16:26:02 +01:00
<20> < br >
<20> <> a) The subnets associated with other addresses on the interface.< br >
<20> <> b) Subnets accessed through local routers.< br >
<20> < br >
Beginning with Shorewall 1.3.14, if you enter an interface name in the
SUBNET column, shorewall will use the firewall's routing table to construct
the masquerading/SNAT rules.< br >
<20> < br >
Example 1 -- This is how it works in 1.3.14.< br >

When upgrading to Shorewall 1.3.14, if you have multiple local subnets
connected to an interface that is specified in the SUBNET column of an
/etc/shorewall/masq entry, your /etc/shorewall/masq file will need changing.
In most cases, you will simply be able to remove redundant entries. In some
cases though, you might want to change from using the interface name to
listing specific subnetworks if the change described above will cause masquerading
to occur on subnetworks that you don't wish to masquerade.< br >

< li > A new 'DNAT-' action has been added for entries in the
/etc/shorewall/rules file. DNAT- is intended for advanced users who wish
2003-01-31 22:50:51 +01:00
to minimize the number of rules that connection requests must traverse.< br >
2003-02-04 16:26:02 +01:00
< br >
A Shorewall DNAT rule actually generates two iptables rules: a header
rewriting rule in the 'nat' table and an ACCEPT rule in the 'filter' table.
A DNAT- rule only generates the first of these rules. This is handy when
2003-01-31 22:50:51 +01:00
you have several DNAT rules that would generate the same ACCEPT rule.< br >
2003-02-04 16:26:02 +01:00
< br >
<20> <> Here are three rules from my previous rules file:< br >

< li > The 'shorewall check' command now prints out the applicable
policy between each pair of zones.< br >
< br >
< / li >
< li > A new CLEAR_TC option has been added to shorewall.conf.
If this option is set to 'No' then Shorewall won't clear the current traffic
control rules during [re]start. This setting is intended for use by people
that prefer to configure traffic shaping when the network interfaces come
up rather than when the firewall is started. If that is what you want to
do, set TC_ENABLED=Yes and CLEAR_TC=No and do not supply an /etc/shorewall/tcstart
file. That way, your traffic shaping rules can still use the 'fwmark' classifier
based on packet marking defined in /etc/shorewall/tcrules.< br >
< br >
< / li >
< li > A new SHARED_DIR variable has been added that allows distribution
packagers to easily move the shared directory (default /usr/lib/shorewall).
Users should never have a need to change the value of this shorewall.conf
2003-01-31 22:50:51 +01:00
setting.< br >
