< p > This guide is intended for users who are setting up Shorewall in an environment
where a set of public IP addresses must be managed or who want to know more
about Shorewall than is contained in the < a
href="shorewall_quickstart_guide.htm">single-address guides< / a > . Because
the range of possible applications is so broad, the Guide will give you
general guidelines and will point you to other resources as necessary.< / p >
< p > < img border = "0" src = "images/j0213519.gif" width = "60" height = "60" >
<EFBFBD> <EFBFBD> <EFBFBD> If you run LEAF Bering, your Shorewall configuration is NOT what I release
-- I suggest that you consider installing a stock Shorewall lrp from the
shorewall.net site before you proceed.< / p >
< p > This guide assumes that you have the iproute/iproute2 package installed
(on RedHat, the package is called < i > iproute< / i > )< i > . < / i > You can tell if
this package is installed by the presence of an < b > ip< / b > program on your
firewall system. As root, you can use the 'which' command to check for this
program:< / p >
< pre > [root@gateway root]# which ip< br > /sbin/ip< br > [root@gateway root]#< / pre >
< p > I recommend that you first read through the guide to familiarize yourself
with what's involved then go back through it again making your configuration
changes. Points at which configuration changes are recommended are flagged
with < img border = "0" src = "images/BD21298_.gif" width = "13" height = "13" >

<EFBFBD> <EFBFBD> <EFBFBD> If you edit your configuration files on a Windows system, you must save
them as Unix files if your editor supports that option or you must run them
through dos2unix before trying to use them with Shorewall. Similarly, if
you copy a configuration file from your Windows hard drive to a floppy disk,
you must run dos2unix against the copy before using it with Shorewall.< / p >

< p > The configuration files for Shorewall are contained in the directory /etc/shorewall
-- for most setups, you will only need to deal with a few of these as described
in this guide. Skeleton files are created during the < a

< p > As each file is introduced, I suggest that you look through the actual
file on your system -- each file contains detailed configuration instructions
and some contain default entries.< / p >
< p > Shorewall views the network where it is running as being composed of a
set of < i > zones.< / i > In the default installation, the following zone names
are used:< / p >

< p > Zones are defined in the < a href = "Documentation.htm#Zones" > /etc/shorewall/zones< / a >

the firewall itself is known as < b > fw< / b > but that may be changed in the
< a href = "Documentation.htm#Configs" > /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf< / a > file.
In this guide, the default name (< b > fw< / b > ) will be used.< / p >
< p > With the exception of < b > fw< / b > , Shorewall attaches absolutely no meaning
to zone names. Zones are entirely what YOU make of them. That means that
you should not expect Shorewall to do something special "because this is
the internet zone" or "because that is the DMZ".< / p >

< p > Shorewall is built on top of the < a href = "http://www.netfilter.org" > Netfilter< / a >
kernel facility. Netfilter implements a < a
href="http://www.cs.princeton.edu/%7Ejns/security/iptables/iptables_conntrack.html">connection
tracking function< / a > that allows what is often referred to as < i > stateful
inspection< / i > of packets. This stateful property allows firewall rules
to be defined in terms of < i > connections< / i > rather than in terms of packets.
With Shorewall, you:< / p >
< ol >
< li > Identify the source zone.< / li >
< li > Identify the destination zone.< / li >
< li > If the POLICY from the client's zone to the server's zone
is what you want for this client/server pair, you need do nothing further.< / li >
< li > If the POLICY is not what you want, then you must add a rule.
That rule is expressed in terms of the client's zone and the server's
zone.< / li >
< / ol >
< p > Just because connections of a particular type are allowed from zone
A to the firewall and are also allowed from the firewall to zone B < font

from zone A to zone B< / u > < / b > < / font > . It rather means that you can have
a proxy running on the firewall that accepts a connection from zone A and
then establishes its own separate connection from the firewall to zone
B.< / p >
< p > For each connection request entering the firewall, the request is first
checked against the /etc/shorewall/rules file. If no rule in that file matches
the connection request then the first policy in /etc/shorewall/policy that
matches the request is applied. If that policy is REJECT or DROP<4F> the request
is first checked against the rules in /etc/shorewall/common.def.< / p >

192.0.2.64 - 192.0.2.79 and that your firewall's external IP address is
192.0.2.65. Your ISP has also told you that you should use a netmask of
255.255.255.0 (so your /28 is part of a larger /24). With this many IP
addresses, you are able to subnet your /28 into two /29's and set up your

and 168.0.2.73 for internal addresses on the firewall/router. Nevertheless,
it shows how subnetting can work and if we were dealing with a /24 rather
than a /28 network, the use of 6 IP addresses out of 256 would be justified
because of the simplicity of the setup.< / p >

What if DMZ 1 (192.0.2.67) tries to communicate with 192.0.2.65? The routing

< div align = "left" >
< p align = "left" > This means that DMZ 1 will send an ARP "who-has 192.0.2.65"
request and no device on the DMZ Ethernet segment has that IP address.
Oddly enough, the firewall will respond to the request with the MAC address

to that MAC address and the frames will be received (correctly) by the

< p align = "left" > It is this rather unexpected ARP behavior on the part of
the Linux Kernel that prompts the warning earlier in this guide regarding

is sent by another system connected to the hub/switch, all of the firewall's
interfaces that connect to the hub/switch can respond! It is then a race

their routers with a long ARP cache timeout. If you move a system from
parallel to your firewall to behind your firewall with Proxy ARP, it will
probably be HOURS before that system can communicate with the internet.
You can call your ISP and ask them to purge the stale ARP cache entry
but many either can't or won't purge individual entries. You can determine
if your ISP's gateway ARP cache is stale using ping and tcpdump. Suppose
that we suspect that the gateway router has a stale ARP cache entry for
192.0.2.177. On the firewall, run tcpdump as follows:< / p >

<EFBFBD> <EFBFBD> <EFBFBD> With the default policies, your local systems (Local 1-3) can access
any servers on the internet and the DMZ can't access any other host (including
the firewall). With the exception of < a href = "#DNAT" > DNAT rules< / a > which
cause address translation and allow the translated connection request
to pass through the firewall, the way to allow connection requests through
your firewall is to use ACCEPT rules.< / p >

DMZ systems named www.foobar.net and mail.foobar.net and you want the
three local systems named "winken.foobar.net, blinken.foobar.net and nod.foobar.net.
You want your firewall to be known as firewall.foobar.net externally and
it's interface to the local network to be know as gateway.foobar.net and
its interface to the dmz as dmz.foobar.net. Let's have the DNS server
on 192.0.2.177 which will also be known by the name ns1.foobar.net.< / p >
