<title>Requirements</title>
<para>Shorewall requires that you have the iproute/iproute2 package
installed (on RedHat, the package is called iproute). You can tell if
this package is installed by the presence of an ip program on your
firewall system. As root, you can use the &#39;which&#39; command to
firewall system. As root, you can use the 'which' command to
check for this program:</para>

<title>IP Addresses</title>
<para>Before going further, we should say a few words about Internet
Protocol (IP) addresses. Normally, your ISP will assign you a single
Public IP address. This address may be assigned via the Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) or as part of establishing your connection
when you dial in (standard modem) or establish your PPP connection. In
rare cases, your ISP may assign you a static IP address; that means that
you configure your firewall&#39;s external interface to use that address
you configure your firewall's external interface to use that address
permanently. Regardless of how the address is assigned, it will be shared
by all of your systems when you access the Internet. You will have to
assign your own addresses for your internal network (the local and DMZ
Interfaces on your firewall plus your other computers). RFC 1918 reserves
several Private IP address ranges for this purpose:</para>
<programlisting>10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255

<para><inlinegraphic fileref="images/BD21298_.gif" format="GIF" /> Before
<para><inlinegraphic fileref="images/BD21298_.gif" format="GIF"/> Before
starting Shorewall, you should look at the IP address of your external
interface and if it is one of the above ranges, you should remove the
&#39;norfc1918&#39; option from the external interface&#39;s entry in
'norfc1918' option from the external interface's entry in
/etc/shorewall/interfaces.</para>
<para>You will want to assign your local addresses from one sub-network or

<title>IP Masquerading (SNAT)</title>
<para>
The addresses reserved by RFC 1918 are sometimes referred to as non-routable because the Internet backbone routers don't forward packets which have an RFC-1918 destination address. When one of your local systems (let's assume local computer 1) sends a connection request to an internet host, the firewall must perform Network Address Translation (NAT). The firewall rewrites the source address in the packet to be the address of the firewall's external interface; in other words, the firewall makes it look as if the firewall itself is initiating the connection. This is necessary so that the destination host will be able to route return packets back to the firewall (remember that packets whose destination address is reserved by RFC 1918 can't be routed accross the internet). When the firewall receives a return packet, it rewrites the destination address back to 10.10.10.1 and forwards the packet on to local computer 1.
</para>

On Linux systems, the above process is often referred to as IP Masquerading and you will also see the term Source Network Address Translation (SNAT) used. Shorewall follows the convention used with Netfilter:

<title>Port Forwarding (DNAT)</title>
<para>
One of your goals will be to run one or more servers on your DMZ computers. Because these computers have RFC-1918 addresses, it is not possible for clients on the internet to connect directly to them. It is rather necessary for those clients to address their connection requests to your firewall who rewrites the destination address to the address of your server and forwards the packet to that server. When your server responds, the firewall automatically performs SNAT to rewrite the source address in the response.

Many ISPs block incoming connection requests to port 80. If you have problems connecting to your web server, try the following rule and try connecting to port 5000 (e.g., connect to <literal>http://w.x.y.z:5000 where w.x.y.z</literal> is your external IP).

<title>Domain Name Server (DNS)</title>
<para>
<para>
Normally, when you connect to your ISP, as part of getting an IP address your firewall's Domain Name Service (DNS) resolver will be automatically configured (e.g., the /etc/resolv.conf file will be written). Alternatively, your ISP may have given you the IP address of a pair of DNS name servers for you to manually configure as your primary and secondary name servers. It is your responsibility to configure the resolver in your internal systems. You can take one of two approaches:
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>
<itemizedlist><listitem><para>
You can configure your internal systems to use your ISP's name servers. If you ISP gave you the addresses of their servers or if those addresses are available on their web site, you can configure your internal systems to use those addresses. If that information isn't available, look in /etc/resolv.conf on your firewall system -- the name servers are given in "nameserver" records in that file.
</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>
<inlinegraphic fileref="images/BD21298_.gif" format="GIF" /> You can configure a Caching Name Server on your firewall or in your DMZ. Red Hat has an RPM for a caching name server (which also requires the 'bind' RPM) and for Bering users, there is dnscache.lrp. If you take this approach, you configure your internal systems to use the caching name server as their primary (and only) name server. You use the internal IP address of the firewall (10.10.10.254 in the example above) for the name server address if you choose to run the name server on your firewall. To allow your local systems to talk to your caching name server, you must open port 53 (both UDP and TCP) from the local network to the server; you do that by adding the rules in /etc/shorewall/rules.
