shorewall-proxyarp 5 proxyarp Shorewall Proxy ARP file /etc/shorewall/proxyarp This file is used to define Proxy ARP. The columns in the file are as follows. ADDRESS IP Address. INTERFACE Local interface where system is connected. EXTERNAL External Interface to be used to access this system. HAVEROUTE If there is already a route from the firewall to the host whose address is given, enter Yes or yes in this column. Otherwise, enter no or No or leave the column empty and Shorewall will add the route for you. If Shorewall adds the route,the route will be persistent if the PERSISTENT column contains Yes; otherwise, shorewall stop or shorewall clear will delete the route. PERSISTENT If HAVEROUTE is No or no, then the value of this column determines if the route added by Shorewall persists after a shorewall stop or a shorewall clear. If this column contains Yes or yes then the route persists; If the column is empty or contains No or no then the route is deleted at shorewall stop or shorewall clear. Example 1: Host with IP 155.186.235.6 is connected to interface eth1 and we want hosts attached via eth0 to be able to access it using that address. #ADDRESS INTERFACE EXTERNAL 155.186.235.6 eth1 eth0 /etc/shorewall/proxyarp shorewall(8), shorewall-accounting(5), shorewall-actions(5), shorewall-blacklist(5), shorewall-hosts(5), shorewall-interfaces(5), shorewall-ipsec(5), shorewall-maclist(5), shorewall-masq(5), shorewall-nat(5), shorewall-netmap(5), shorewall-params(5), shorewall-policy(5), shorewall-providers(5), shorewall-route_routes(5), shorewall-routestopped(5), shorewall-rules(5), shorewall.conf(5), shorewall-tcclasses(5), shorewall-tcdevices(5), shorewall-tcrules(5), shorewall-tos(5), shorewall-tunnels(5), shorewall-zones(5)
