<title>Important</title>
<para>It is important that you read all of the sections on this page where
the version number mentioned in the section title is later than what you
are currently running.</para>
<para>In the descriptions that follows, the term <emphasis>group</emphasis>
refers to a particular network or subnetwork (which may be
<literal>0.0.0.0/0</literal> or it may be a host address) accessed through
a particular interface.</para>
<para>Examples:</para>
<simplelist columns="1" type="vert">
<member><literal>eth0:0.0.0.0/0</literal></member>
<member><literal>eth2:192.168.1.0/24</literal></member>

<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>Extension Scripts - In order for extension scripts to work
properly with the new iptables-save/restore integration introduced in
Shorewall 2.0.2 Beta 1, some change may be required to your extension
scripts.</para>
<para>If your extension scripts are executing commands other than
<command>iptables</command> then those commands must also be written
to the restore file (a temporary file in <filename class="directory">/var/lib/shorewall</filename>
that is renamed <filename>/var/lib/shorewall/restore-base</filename>
at the completeion of the <filename>/sbin/shorewall</filename>
command). The following functions should be of help:</para>
<orderedlist>
<listitem>
<para>save_command() -- saves the passed command to the restore
file.</para>
<para>Example: <programlisting>save_command echo Operation Complete</programlisting></para>
<para>That command would simply write &#34;echo Operation
Complete&#34; to the restore file.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>run_and_save_command() -- saves the passed command to the
restore file then executes it. The return value is the exit status
of the command. Example: <programlisting>run_and_save_command &#34;echo 1 &#62; /proc/sys/net/ipv4/icmp_echo_ignore_all&#34;</programlisting></para>
<para>Note that as in this example, when the command involves file
redirection then the entire command must be enclosed in quotes.
This applies to all of the functions described here.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>ensure_and_save_command() -- runs the passed command. If the
command fails, the firewall is restored to it&#39;s prior saved
state and the operation is terminated. If the command succeeds,
the command is written to the restore file</para>

<title>Version &#62;= 2.0.1</title>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>The function of &#39;norfc1918&#39; is now split between that
option and a new &#39;nobogons&#39; option. The rfc1918 file released
with Shorewall now contains entries for only those three address
ranges reserved by RFC 1918. A &#39;nobogons&#39; interface option has
been added which handles bogon source addresses (those which are
reserved by the IANA, those reserved for DHCP auto-configuration and
the class C test-net reserved for testing and documentation examples).
This will allow users to perform RFC 1918 filtering without having to
deal with out of date data from IANA. Those who are willing to update
their <filename>/usr/share/shorewall/bogons</filename> file regularly
can specify the &#39;nobogons&#39; option in addition to
&#39;norfc1918&#39;. The level at which bogon packets are logged is
specified in the new BOGON_LOG_LEVEL variable in shorewall.conf. If
that option is not specified or is specified as empty (e.g,
BOGON_LOG_LEVEL=&#34;&#34;) then bogon packets whose TARGET is
&#39;logdrop&#39; in <filename>/usr/share/shorewall/bogons</filename>
are logged at the &#39;info&#39; level.</para>

<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>The &#39;dropunclean&#39; and &#39;logunclean&#39; interface
options are no longer supported. If either option is specified in
<filename>/etc/shorewall/interfaces</filename>, a threatening message
will be generated.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The NAT_BEFORE_RULES option has been removed from
<filename>shorewall.conf</filename>. The behavior of Shorewall 2.0 is
as if NAT_BEFORE_RULES=No had been specified. In other words, DNAT
rules now always take precidence over one-to-one NAT specifications.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The default value for the ALL INTERFACES column in
<filename>/etc/shorewall/nat</filename> has changed. In Shorewall 1.*,
if the column was left empty, a value of &#34;Yes&#34; was assumed.
This has been changed so that a value of &#34;No&#34; is now assumed.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The following files don&#39;t exist in Shorewall 2.0:</para>
<simplelist>
<member><filename>/etc/shorewall/common.def</filename></member>
<member><filename>/etc/shorewall/common</filename></member>
<member><filename>/etc/shorewall/icmpdef</filename></member>
<member><filename>/etc/shorewall/action.template</filename> (moved
to <filename>/usr/share/shorewall/action.template</filename>)</member>
</simplelist>
<para>The <filename>/etc/shorewall/action</filename> file now allows
an action to be designated as the &#34;common&#34; action for a
particular policy type by following the action name with &#34;:&#34;
and the policy (DROP, REJECT or ACCEPT).</para>
<para>The file /usr/share/shorewall/actions.std has been added to
define those actions that are released as part of Shorewall 2.0 In
that file are two actions as follows:</para>
<simplelist>
<member>Drop:DROP</member>
<member>Reject:REJECT</member>
</simplelist>
<para>The <quote>Drop</quote> action is the common action for DROP
policies while the <quote>Reject</quote> action is the default action
for REJECT policies. These actions will be performed on packets prior
to applying the DROP or REJECT policy respectively. In the first
release, the difference between &#34;Reject&#34; and &#34;Drop&#34; is
that &#34;Reject&#34; REJECTs SMB traffic while &#34;Drop&#34;
silently drops such traffic.</para>
<para>As described above, Shorewall allows a common action for ACCEPT
policies but does not specify such an action in the default
configuration.</para>
<para>For more information see the <ulink
url="User_defined_Actions.html">User-defined Action Page</ulink>.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The <filename>/etc/shorewall</filename> directory no longer
contains <filename>users</filename> file or a <filename>usersets</filename>
file. Similar functionality is now available using user-defined
actions.</para>
<para>Now, action files created by copying <filename>/usr/share/shorewall/action.template</filename>
may now specify a USER and or GROUP name/id in the final column just
like in the rules file (see below). It is thus possible to create
actions that control traffic from a list of users and/or groups.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The last column in <filename>/etc/shorewall/rules</filename> is
now labeled USER/GROUP and may contain:</para>

<para>The meaning of <varname>ROUTE_FILTER=Yes</varname> has changed.
Previously this setting was documented as causing route filtering to
occur on all network interfaces; this didn&#39;t work. Beginning with
this release, <varname>ROUTE_FILTER=Yes</varname> causes route
filtering to occur on all interfaces brought up while Shorewall is
running. This means that it may be appropriate to set
<varname>ROUTE_FILTER=Yes</varname> and use the routefilter option in

<section>
<title>Version &#62;= 1.4.2</title>
<para>There are some cases where you may want to handle traffic from a
particular group to itself. While I personally think that such a setups
are ridiculous, there are two cases covered in this documentation where it
can occur: <itemizedlist><listitem><para><ulink url="FAQ.htm#faq2">In FAQ
#2</ulink></para></listitem><listitem><para><ulink
url="Shorewall_Squid_Usage.html">When running <application>Squid</application>

If you have either of these cases, you will want to review the current
documentation and change your configuration accordingly.</para>
</section>
<section>
<title>Version &#62;= 1.4.1</title>
<itemizedlist mark="bullet">
<listitem>
<para>Beginning with Version 1.4.1, traffic between groups in the same
zone is accepted by default. Previously, traffic from a zone to itself
was treated just like any other traffic; any matching rules were
applied followed by enforcement of the appropriate policy. With 1.4.1
and later versions, unless you have explicit rules for traffic from Z
to Z or you have an explicit Z to Z policy (where &#34;Z&#34; is some
zone) then traffic between the groups in zone Z will be accepted. If
you do have one or more explicit rules for Z to Z or if you have an
explicit Z to Z policy then the behavior is as it was in prior
versions.</para>
<orderedlist numeration="arabic">
<listitem>
<para>If you have a Z Z ACCEPT policy for a zone to allow traffic
between two interfaces to the same zone, that policy can be
removed and traffic between the interfaces will traverse fewer
rules than previously.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>If you have a Z Z DROP or Z Z REJECT policy or you have
Z-&#62;Z rules then your configuration should not require any
change.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>If you are currently relying on a implicit policy (one that
has &#34;all&#34; in either the SOURCE or DESTINATION column) to
prevent traffic between two interfaces to a zone Z and you have no
rules for Z-&#62;Z then you should add an explicit DROP or REJECT
policy for Z to Z.</para>
</listitem>
</orderedlist>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>Sometimes, you want two separate zones on one interface but you
don&#39;t want Shorewall to set up any infrastructure to handle
traffic between them. <example><title>The <filename>zones</filename>,
<filename>interfaces</filename> and, <filename>hosts</filename> file
contents</title><programlisting>
<filename class="directory">/etc/shorewall/</filename><filename>zones</filename>
z1 Zone1 The first Zone
z2 Zone2 The second Zone
<filename class="directory">/etc/shorewall/</filename><filename>interfaces</filename>
z2 eth1 192.168.1.255
<filename class="directory">/etc/shorewall/</filename><filename>hosts</filename>
z1 eth1:192.168.1.3
</programlisting></example> Here, zone z1 is nested in zone z2 and the
firewall is not going to be involved in any traffic between these two
zones. Beginning with Shorewall 1.4.1, you can prevent Shorewall from
setting up any infrastructure to handle traffic between z1 and z2 by
using the new NONE policy: <example><title>The contents of
<filename>policy</filename></title><programlisting>
<filename class="directory">/etc/shorewall/</filename><filename>policy</filename>
z1 z2 NONE
z2 z1 NONE
</programlisting></example> Note that NONE policies are generally used in
pairs unless there is asymetric routing where only the traffic on one
direction flows through the firewall and you are using a NONE polciy
in the other direction.</para>

<section>
<title>Version 1.4.1</title>
<itemizedlist mark="bullet">
<listitem>
<para>In Version 1.4.1, Shorewall will never create rules to deal with
traffic from a given group back to itself. The <varname>multi</varname>
interface option is no longer available so if you want to route
traffic between two subnetworks on the same interface then I recommend
that you upgrade to Version 1.4.2 and use the <varname>routeback</varname>

</programlisting> Version 1.3.14 also introduced simplified ICMP
echo-request (ping) handling. The option <varname>OLD_PING_HANDLING=Yes</varname>
in <filename class="directory">/etc/shorewall/</filename><filename>shorewall.conf</filename>
is used to specify that the old (pre-1.3.14) ping handling is to be used
(If the option is not set in your <filename class="directory">/etc/shorewall/</filename>shorewall.conf
then <varname>OLD_PING_HANDLING=Yes</varname> is assumed). I don&#39;t

<para>Users specifying <varname>ALLOWRELATED=No</varname> in <filename

will need to include the following rules in their <filename

file (creating this file if necessary):
<programlisting>
run_iptables -A icmpdef -p ICMP --icmp-type echo-reply -j ACCEPT
run_iptables -A icmpdef -p ICMP --icmp-type source-quench -j ACCEPT
run_iptables -A icmpdef -p ICMP --icmp-type destination-unreachable -j ACCEPT

run_iptables -A icmpdef -p ICMP --icmp-type parameter-problem -j ACCEPT
</programlisting> Users having an <filename class="directory">/etc/shorewall/</filename><filename>icmpdef</filename>
file may remove the <command>./etc/shorewall/icmp.def</command>
command from that file since the <filename>icmp.def</filename> file is

<title>Upgrading Bering to Shorewall &#62;= 1.3.3</title>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>To properly upgrade with Shorewall version 1.3.3 and later:
<orderedlist numeration="arabic"><listitem><para>Be sure you have a
backup -- you will need to transcribe any Shorewall configuration
changes that you have made to the new configuration.</para></listitem><listitem><para>Replace
the <filename>shorwall.lrp</filename> package provided on the Bering
floppy with the later one. If you did not obtain the later version
from Jacques&#39;s site, see additional instructions below.</para></listitem><listitem><para>Edit
the <filename class="directory">/var/lib/lrpkg/</filename><filename>root.exclude.list</filename>
file and remove the <filename>/var/lib/shorewall</filename> entry if
present. Then do not forget to backup <filename>root.lrp</filename>!</para></listitem></orderedlist>
The .lrp that I release isn&#39;t set up for a two-interface firewall
like Jacques&#39;s. You need to follow the instructions for setting up
a two-interface firewall plus you also need to add the following two
Bering-specific rules to <filename class="directory">/etc/shorewall/</filename><filename>rules</filename>:
<programlisting>
# Bering specific rules:
# allow loc to fw udp/53 for dnscache to work
# allow loc to fw tcp/80 for weblet to work
#
ACCEPT loc fw udp 53
ACCEPT loc fw tcp 80
