<para>Systems where Shorewall runs normally function as

Interconnect (OSI) reference model, a router operates at layer 3,

Shorewall may also be deployed on a GNU Linux System that acts as a

<firstterm>bridge</firstterm>. Bridges are layer 2 devices in the OSI

<para>The following diagram shows a typical application of a
|
|
bridge/firewall. There is already an existing router in place whose
|
|
internal interface supports a network, and you want to insert a firewall
|
|
between the router, and the systems in the local network. In the example
|
|
shown, the network uses RFC 1918 addresses but that is not a requirement;
|
|
the bridge would work exactly the same if public IP addresses were used
|
|
(remember that the bridge doesn't deal with IP addresses).</para>
|
|
|
|
<graphic fileref="images/bridge.png"/>
|
|
|
|
<para>There are a several key differences in this setup and a normal
|
|
Shorewall configuration:</para>
|
|
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>The Shorewall system (the Bridge/Firewall) has only a single IP
|
|
address even though it has two Ethernet interfaces! The IP address is
|
|
configured on the bridge itself, rather than on either of the network
|
|
cards.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>The systems connected to the LAN are configured with the
|
|
router's IP address (192.168.1.254 in the above diagram) as their

default gateway.</para>

<para><command>traceroute</command> doesn't detect the Bridge/Firewall

<listitem>
|

<para>If the router runs a DHCP server, the hosts connected to the LAN
|
|
can use that server without having <command>dhcrelay</command> running
|
|
on the Bridge/Firewall.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
</itemizedlist>
|
|
|
|
<warning>
|
|
<para>Inserting a bridge/firewall between a router and a set of local
|
|
hosts only works if those local hosts form a single IP network. In the
|
|
above diagram, all of the hosts in the loc zone are in the
|
|
192.168.1.0/24 network. If the router is routing between several local
|
|
networks through the same physical interface (there are multiple IP
|
|
networks sharing the same LAN), then inserting a bridge/firewall between
|
|
the router and the local LAN won't work.</para>
|
|
</warning>
|
|
|
|
<para>There are other possibilities here -- there could be a hub or switch
|
|
between the router and the Bridge/Firewall and there could be other
|
|
systems connected to that switch. All of the systems on the local side of
|
|
the <emphasis role="bold">router</emphasis> would still be configured with
|
|
IP addresses in 192.168.1.0/24 as shown below.<graphic

<title>Configuring the Bridge</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Configuring the bridge itself is quite simple and uses the
|
|
<command>brctl</command> utility from the bridge-utils package. Bridge
|
|
configuration information may be found at <ulink
|
|
url="http://bridge.sf.net">http://bridge.sf.net</ulink>.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Unfortunately, many Linux distributions don't have good bridge
|
|
configuration tools, and the network configuration GUIs don't detect the
|
|
presence of bridge devices. Here is an excerpt from a Debian
|
|
<filename>/etc/network/interfaces</filename> file for a two-port bridge
|
|

|
|
|
<para>While it is not a requirement to give the bridge an IP address,
|
|
doing so allows the bridge/firewall to access other systems and allows the
|
|
bridge/firewall to be managed remotely. The bridge must also have an IP
|
|
address for REJECT rules and policies to work correctly — otherwise REJECT
|
|
behaves the same as DROP. It is also a requirement for bridges to have an
|
|
IP address if they are part of a <link

<para>As described above, Shorewall bridge support requires the
|
|
<firstterm>physdev match</firstterm> feature of Netfilter/iptables.
|
|
Physdev match allows rules to be triggered based on the bridge port that a
|
|
packet arrived on and/or the bridge port that a packet will be sent over.
|
|
The latter has proved to be problematic because it requires that the
|
|
evaluation of rules be deferred until the destination bridge port is
|
|
known. This deferral has the unfortunate side effect that it makes IPsec
|
|
Netfilter filtration incompatible with bridges. To work around this
|
|
problem, in kernel version 2.6.20 the Netfilter developers decided to
|
|
remove the deferred processing in two cases:</para>

<para>The reason is that the Shorewall implementation requires each bridge

<para>If you need to refer to a particular port on br1 (for example

<title>Using Back-to-back veth Devices to Interface with a Bridge</title>
|

|
|
<para>Beginning with Shorewall 4.4.26, Shorewall has limited support for
|
|
using back-to-back veth devices to interface with a bridge. This approach
|
|
has the advantage that traffic between any pair of zones can be filtered.
|
|
The disadvantage is the complexity of the approach.</para>

<para>This configuration is shown in the following diagram.</para>
|
|

<graphic align="center" fileref="images/veth1.png"/>

br0 does not have an IP address.</para>

<para>Traffic from the <emphasis role="bold">net</emphasis> and <emphasis

role="bold">fw</emphasis> zones to the <emphasis

veth0->veth1->ethN->. Traffic from the <emphasis

role="bold">zone<emphasis>i</emphasis></emphasis> zones to the <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">fw</emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold">net</emphasis> zones
|
|
takes the reverse path: ethN->veth1->veth0. As a consequence,
|
|
traffic between <emphasis role="bold">net</emphasis>,<emphasis
|
|
role="bold">fw</emphasis> and <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">zone<emphasis>i</emphasis></emphasis> goes through Netfilter

firewall (eth1,eth2,eth3,veth1).</para>

<para>Several things to note here</para>

|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>We have defined two unmarked zones: <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">loc</emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold">col</emphasis>.
|
|
This allows traffic from the <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">zone</emphasis><emphasis><emphasis
|
|
role="bold">i</emphasis></emphasis> zones to the fw and net zones to
|
|
retain the mark of their originating bport zones. It also allows
|
|
traffic from the <emphasis role="bold">fw</emphasis> and <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">net</emphasis> zones to the <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">zonei</emphasis> zones to retain the <emphasis
|

role="bold">fw</emphasis> and <emphasis role="bold">net</emphasis>
|
|
marks respectively.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>That means that traffic entering the bridge on veth1 will have a
|
|
different mark value, depending on whether it originated in the
|
|
<emphasis role="bold">net</emphasis> zone or in the <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">fw</emphasis> zone.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para>Similarly, traffic arriving on the veth0 interface will have a
|
|
mark that indicates which of the <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">zonei</emphasis> zones each packet originated on.</para>
|
|
</listitem>
|
|
</orderedlist>
|
|
|
|
<para>The basic idea here is that we want to filter traffic to the
|
|
<emphasis role="bold">zonei</emphasis> zones as it leaves veth1 and we
|
|
want to filter traffic from those zones as it leaves veth0. So we use this
|
|
type of polices:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>#SOURCE DEST POLICY
|
|
fw loc ACCEPT
|
|
net loc ACCEPT
|
|
net all DROP:info
|
|
zone1 col ACCEPT
|
|
zone2 col ACCEPT
|
|
zone3 col ACCEPT
|
|
all all REJECT:info</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>Rules allowing traffic from the net to zone2 look like this:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>#ACTION SOURCE DEST PROTO DPORT SPORT ORIGDEST RATE USER MARK
|
|
ACCEPT col zone2 tcp 22 - - - - <emphasis
|
|
role="bold">net</emphasis></programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>or more compactly:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>#ACTION SOURCE DEST PROTO DPORT
|
|
ACCEPT col <emphasis role="bold">zone2</emphasis> tcp 22 ; mark=<emphasis
|
|
role="bold">net</emphasis></programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>Similarly, rules allowing traffic from the firewall to zone3:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting>#ACTION SOURCE DEST PROTO DPORT
|
|
ACCEPT col <emphasis role="bold">zone3</emphasis> tcp 22 ; mark=<emphasis
|
|
role="bold">fw</emphasis></programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>The important point here is that, when ZONE_BITS is non-zero, you
|
|
are allowed to place zone names in the MARK column. Shorewall will
|
|
automatically replae the name with the zone's mark value.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Suppose that you want to forward tcp port 80 to 192.168.4.45 in
|
|
zone3:</para>
|
|

<programlisting>#ACTION SOURCE DEST PROTO DPORT SPORT ORIGDEST RATE USER MARK

<para>Rules allowing traffic from the <emphasis
