About My Network |
Warning 1: I use a combination of Static NAT and Proxy ARP, neither of which are relevant to a simple configuration with a single public IP address. If you have just a single public IP address, most of what you see here won't apply to your setup so beware of copying parts of this configuration and expecting them to work for you. What you copy may or may not work in your configuration.
Warning 2: The configuration shown here corresponds to Snapshot 1.4.5_20030629 plus a couple of patches.
I have DSL service and have 5 static IP addresses (206.124.146.176-180). My DSL "modem" (Fujitsu Speedport) is connected to eth0. I have a local network connected to eth2 (subnet 192.168.1.0/24), a DMZ connected to eth1 (192.168.2.0/24) and a Wireless network connected to eth3 (192.168.3.0/24).
I use:
- Static NAT for Ursa (my XP System) - Internal address 192.168.1.5 and external address 206.124.146.178.
- Static NAT for Wookie (my Linux System). Internal address 192.168.1.3 and external address 206.124.146.179.
- Static NAT for EastepLaptop (My work system). Internal address 192.168.1.7 and external address 206.124.146.180.
- SNAT through the primary gateway address (206.124.146.176) for my Wife's system (Tarry) and our laptop (Tipper) which connects through the Wireless Access Point (wap) via a Wireless Bridge (bridge).
Note: While the distance between the WAP and where I usually use the laptop isn't very far (25 feet or so), using a WAC11 (CardBus wireless card) has proved very unsatisfactory (lots of lost connections). By replacing the WAC11 with the WET11 wireless bridge, I have virtually eliminated these problems (Being an old radio tinkerer (K7JPV), I was also able to eliminate the disconnects by hanging a piece of aluminum foil on the family room wall. Needless to say, my wife Tarry rejected that as a permanent solution :-).The firewall runs on a 256MB PII/233 with RH9.0.
Wookie and the Firewall both run Samba and the Firewall acts as a WINS server.
Wookie is in its own 'whitelist' zone called 'me' which is embedded in the local zone.
The wireless network connects to eth3 via a LinkSys WAP11. In additional to using the rather weak WEP 40-bit encryption (64-bit with the 24-bit prefix), I use MAC verification. This is still a weak combination and if I lived near a wireless "hot spot", I would probably add IPSEC or something similar to my WiFi->local connections.
The single system in the DMZ (address 206.124.146.177) runs postfix, Courier IMAP (imaps and pop3), DNS, a Web server (Apache) and an FTP server (Pure-ftpd). The system also runs fetchmail to fetch our email from our old and current ISPs. That server is managed through Proxy ARP.
The firewall system itself runs a DHCP server that serves the local network. It also runs Postfix which is configured as a Virus and Spam filter with all incoming mail then being forwarded to the MTA in the DMZ.
All administration and publishing is done using ssh/scp. I have X installed on the firewall but no X server or desktop is installed. X applications tunnel through SSH to XWin.exe running on Ursa. The server does have a desktop environment installed and that desktop environment is available via XDMCP from the local zone. For the most part though, X tunneled through SSH is used for server administration and the server runs at run level 3 (multi-user console mode on RedHat).
I run an SNMP server on my firewall to serve MRTG running in the DMZ.
The ethernet interface in the Server is configured with IP address 206.124.146.177, netmask 255.255.255.0. The server's default gateway is 206.124.146.254 (Router at my ISP. This is the same default gateway used by the firewall itself). On the firewall, Shorewall automatically adds a host route to 206.124.146.177 through eth1 (192.168.2.1) because of the entry in /etc/shorewall/proxyarp (see below).
Ursa (192.168.1.5 AKA 206.124.146.178) runs a PPTP server for Road Warrior access.

Although most of our internal systems use static NAT, my wife's system (192.168.1.4) uses IP Masquerading (actually SNAT) as do visitors with laptops. Also, I masquerade systems connected through the wireless network.
