<p><strong>2009-08-14 Shorewall 4.4.0</strong></p>
<pre>----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br> R E L E A S E 4 . 4 H I G H L I G H T S<br>----------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>1) Support for Shorewall-shell has been discontinued. Shorewall-perl<br> has been combined with Shorewall-common to produce a single<br> Shorewall package.<br><br>2) Support for the "Hierarchical Fair Service Curve" (HFSC) queuing<br> discipline has been added. HFSC is superior to the "Hierarchical<br> Token Bucket" queuing discipline where realtime traffic such as<br> VOIP is being used.<br><br>3) Support for the "flow" traffic classifier has been added. This<br> classifier can help prevent multi-connection applications such as<br> BitTorrent from using an unfair amount of bandwidth.<br><br>4) The Shorewall documentation and man pages have been purged of<br> information about earlier Shorewall releases. The documentation<br> describes only the behavior of Shorewall 4.4 and later versions.<br><br>5) The interfaces file OPTIONs have been extended to largely remove the<br> need for the hosts file.<br><br>6) It is now possible to define PREROUTING and OUTPUT marking rules<br> that cause new connections to use the same provider as an existing<br> connection of the same kind.<br><br>7) Dynamic Zone support is once again available for IPv4; ipset support is<br> required in your kernel and in iptables.<br><br>8) A new AUTOMAKE option has been added to shorewall.conf and<br> shorewall6.conf. Setting this option will allow Shorewall to skip<br> the compilation phase during start/restart if no configuration<br> changes have occurred since the last start/restart.<br><br>9) The LIMIT:BURST column in /etc/shorewall/policy<br> (/etc/shorewall6/policy) and the RATE LIMIT column in<br> /etc/shorewall/rules (/etc/shorewall6/rules) may now be used to<br> limit on a per source IP or per destination IP basis.<br><br>10) Support for per-IP traffic shaping classes has been added.<br><br>11) Support for netfilter's TRACE facility has been added. TRACE allows<br> you to trace selected packets through Netfilter, including marking<br> by tcrules. <br><br></pre>

Shorewall 4.4, release in August 2009, does not include
Shorewall-shell. Because Shorewall 4.0 is included in Debian Lenny, the
4.0 release of Shorewall-shell will continue to be supported until
Debian Squeeze is released. The 4.2 release of Shorewall-shell will
