<h1 style="text-align: center;">Shorewall Blacklisting Support<br>
|
|
|
|
|
</h1>
|
|
|
|
|
<p>Shorewall supports two different forms of blacklisting; static and
|
|
|
|
|
dynamic. Beginning with Shorewall version 1.4.8, the BLACKLISTNEWONLY
|
|
|
|
|
option in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf controls the degree of
|
|
|
|
|
blacklist filtering:<br>
|
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
|
<ol>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>BLACKLISTNEWONLY=No -- All incoming packets are checked
|
|
|
|
|
against the blacklist. New blacklist entries can be used to terminate
|
|
|
|
|
existing connections. Versions of Shorewall prior to 1.4.8 behave in
|
|
|
|
|
this manner.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>BLACKLISTNEWONLY=Yes -- The blacklists are only consulted for new
|
|
|
|
|
connection requests. Blacklists may not be used to terminate existing
|
|
|
|
|
connections.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
</ol>
|
|
|
|
|
Only the source address is checked against the blacklists.<br>

<h2>Static Blacklisting</h2>
|
2003-12-03 00:51:46 +01:00
|
|
|
|
<p>Shorewall static blacklisting support has the following
|
|
|
|
|
configuration
|
2003-08-09 19:14:58 +02:00
|
|
|
|
parameters:</p>
|
2002-08-13 22:45:21 +02:00
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
2003-12-03 00:51:46 +01:00
|
|
|
|
<li>You specify whether you want packets from blacklisted hosts
|
|
|
|
|
dropped or rejected using the <a href="Documentation.htm#BLDisposition">BLACKLIST_DISPOSITION</a>
|
|
|
|
|
setting in /etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>You specify whether you want packets from blacklisted hosts
|
|
|
|
|
logged and at what syslog level using the <a
|
|
|
|
|
href="Documentation.htm#BLLoglevel">BLACKLIST_LOGLEVEL</a> setting in
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>You list the IP addresses/subnets that you wish to blacklist in <a
|
|
|
|
|
href="Documentation.htm#Blacklist">/etc/shorewall/blacklist.</a>
|
|
|
|
|
Beginning with Shorewall version 1.3.8, you may also specify PROTOCOL
|
|
|
|
|
and
|
|
|
|
|
Port numbers/Service names in the blacklist file.<br>
|
|
|
|
|
</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>You specify the interfaces whose incoming packets you want
|
|
|
|
|
checked against the blacklist using the "<a
|
|
|
|
|
href="Documentation.htm#Interfaces">blacklist</a>" option in
|
|
|
|
|
/etc/shorewall/interfaces.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>The black list is refreshed from /etc/shorewall/blacklist by the "<a
|
|
|
|
|
href="Documentation.htm#Starting">shorewall refresh</a>" command.</li>
|
2002-08-13 22:45:21 +02:00
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
|
|
|
|
<h2>Dynamic Blacklisting</h2>
|
2003-12-03 00:51:46 +01:00
|
|
|
|
<p>Dynamic blacklisting support was added in version 1.3.2. Dynamic
|
|
|
|
|
blacklisting doesn't use any configuration parameters but is rather
|
|
|
|
|
controlled using /sbin/shorewall commands:</p>
|
2002-08-13 22:45:21 +02:00
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
2003-12-03 00:51:46 +01:00
|
|
|
|
<li>drop <i><ip address list> </i>- causes packets from the
|
|
|
|
|
listed IP addresses to be silently dropped by the firewall.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>reject <i><ip address list> </i>- causes packets from the
|
|
|
|
|
listed IP addresses to be rejected by the firewall.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>allow <i><ip address list> </i>- re-enables receipt of
|
|
|
|
|
packets from hosts previously blacklisted by a <i>drop</i> or <i>reject</i>
|
2003-08-09 19:14:58 +02:00
|
|
|
|
command.</li>
|
2003-12-03 00:51:46 +01:00
|
|
|
|
<li>save - save the dynamic blacklisting configuration so that it
|
|
|
|
|
will be automatically restored the next time that the firewall is
|
|
|
|
|
restarted.</li>
|
|
|
|
|
<li>show dynamic - displays the dynamic blacklisting configuration.</li>
|
2002-08-13 22:45:21 +02:00
|
|
|
|
</ul>
|
2003-12-03 00:51:46 +01:00
|
|
|
|
Dynamic blacklisting is <u>not</u> dependent on the "blacklist" option
|
|
|
|
|
in /etc/shorewall/interfaces.<br>

<p>Example 1:</p>

|
2003-12-03 00:51:46 +01:00
|
|
|
|
<p> Drops packets from hosts 192.0.2.124 and
|
|
|
|
|
192.0.2.125</p>

<p> Reenables access from 192.0.2.125.</p>
