Shorewall Proxy ARP file
/etc/shorewall/proxyarp
Description
This file is used to define Proxy ARP. There is one entry in this
file for each IP address to be proxied.
The columns in the file are as follows.
ADDRESS -
address
IP Address.
INTERFACE -
interface (Optional as of Shorewall
4.4.16)
Local interface where system with the ip address in ADDRESS is
connected. This column is only required when HAVEROUTE is set to
No (no) or is left empty.
EXTERNAL -
interface
External Interface to be used to access this system from the
Internet.
HAVEROUTE - [-|Yes|No]
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, its
persistence depends on the value of thePERSISTENT column contains Yes; otherwise, shorewall stop or shorewall clear will delete the route.
PERSISTENT - [-|Yes|No]
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 by
shorewall stop or shorewall
clear.
Example
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
