<title>Overview</title>
<para>Shorewall events were introduced in Shorewall 4.5.19 and provide a
high-level interface to the Netfilter<firstterm> recent match</firstterm>
capability. An event is actually a list of (IP address, timestamp) pairs,
and can be tested in a number of different ways:</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>Has event E ever occurred for IP address A (is the IP address in
the list)?</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>Has event E occurred M or more times for IP address A?</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>Has Event E occurred in the last N seconds for IP Address A (is
there an entry for the address with a timestamp falling within the
last N seconds)?</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>Has Event E occurred M or more times in the last N seconds for
IP address A (are there M or more entries for the address with
timestamps falling within the last N seconds)?</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>The event interface is implemented as three parameterized Shorewall
<ulink url="Actions.html">Actions</ulink>:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>SetEvent</term>
<listitem>
<para>This action initializes an event list for either the source or
destination IP address in the current packets. The list will contain
a single entry for the address that will have the current
timestamp.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>ResetEvent</term>
<listitem>
<para>This action removes all entries for either the source or
destination IP address from an event list.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>IfEvent</term>
<listitem>
<para>This action tests an event in one of the ways listed above,
and performs an action based on the result.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
<para>Events are based on the Netfilter 'recent match' capability which is
required for their use.</para>
<para>The recent-match kernel component is xt_recent which has two options
that are of interest to Shorewall users:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>ip_list_tot</term>
<listitem>
<para>The number of addresses remembered per event. Default is
100.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>ip_pkt_list_tot</term>
<listitem>
<para>The number of packets (event occurrences) remembered per
address. Default is 20.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
<para>These may be changed with the xt_recent module is loaded or on the
kernel bootloader runline.</para>
</section>
<section>
<title>Details</title>
<para>Because these are parameterized actions, optional parameters may be
omitted. Trailing omitted parameters may be omitted entirely while
embedded omitted parameters are represented by a hyphen ("-").</para>
<para>Each event is given a name. Event names:</para>

<para>Must begin with a letter.</para>

<listitem>
<para>May be composed of letters, digits, hyphens ('-') or underscores

<para>The SSH and SSH_COUNTER events are created using the following
Automatic Blacklisting example. The sticky001 and sticky002 events are
created by the SAME rule action.</para>
<para>Each line represents one event. The list of numbers following the
':' represent the number of seconds ago that a matching packet triggered
the event. The numbers are in chronological sequence, so In this event,
there were 20 packets from 172.20.1.213 that arrived between 53 and 46
seconds ago:</para>

<para>Note that there may have been earlier packets that also matched,
but the system where this example was captured used the default value of
the <emphasis role="bold">ip_pkt_list_tot</emphasis> xt_recent option
(20).</para>
<para>The output of these commands is produced by processing the
contents of <filename>/proc/net/xt_recent/*</filename>. You can access
those files directly to see the raw data. Additional about these files
may be found in iptables (8).</para>
