<title>Introduction</title>
<para><ulink url="http://wiki.openvz.org/">Open Virtuoso (OpenVZ)</ulink>
is an open source kernel-based virtualization solution from
<trademark><ulink
url="http://www.parallels.com">Parallels</ulink></trademark> (formerly
<trademark>SWSoft</trademark>). Virtual servers take the form of
<firstterm>containers</firstterm> (the OpenVZ documentation calls these
<firstterm>Virtual Environments</firstterm> or <firstterm>VEs</firstterm>)
which are created via <firstterm>templates</firstterm>. Templates are
available for a wide variety of distributions and architectures.</para>
<para>OpenVZ requires a patched kernel. Beginning with Lenny,
<trademark>Debian</trademark> supplies OpenVZ kernels through the standard
stable repository.</para>
</section>
<section>
<title>Shorewall on an OpenVZ Host</title>
<para>As with any Shorewall installation involving other software, we
suggest that you first install OpenVZ and get it working before attempting
to add Shorewall. Alternatively, execute <command>shorewall
clear</command> while <ulink
url="http://wiki.openvz.org/Installation_on_Debian">installing and
configuring OpenVZ</ulink>.</para>
<section>
<title>Networking</title>
<para>The default OpenVZ networking configuration uses Proxy ARP. You
assign containers IP addresses in the IP network from one of your
interfaces and you are expected to set the proxy_arp flag on that
interface
(<filename>/proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/<replaceable>interface</replaceable>/proxy_arp</filename>).</para>
<para>OpenVZ creates a point-to-point virtual interface in the host with
a rather odd configuration.</para>
<para>Example (Single VE with IP address 206.124.146.178):</para>
<programlisting>gateway:~# <command>ip addr ls dev venet0</command>
10: venet0: &lt;BROADCAST,POINTOPOINT,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
link/void
gateway:~# <command>ip route ls dev venet0</command>
206.124.146.178 scope link
gateway:~# </programlisting>
<para>The interface has no IP configuration yet it has a route to
206.124.146.178!</para>
<para>From within the VE with IP address 206.124.146.178, we have the
following:</para>
<programlisting>server:~ # <command>ip addr ls</command>
1: lo: &lt;LOOPBACK,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 16436 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
link/loopback 00:00:00:00:00:00 brd 00:00:00:00:00:00
inet 127.0.0.1/8 brd 127.255.255.255 scope host lo
inet 127.0.0.2/8 brd 127.255.255.255 scope host secondary lo
inet6 ::1/128 scope host
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
2: venet0: &lt;BROADCAST,POINTOPOINT,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP&gt; mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN
link/void
inet 127.0.0.1/32 scope host venet0
inet 206.124.146.178/32 scope global venet0:0
server:~ # <command>ip route ls</command>
192.0.2.0/24 dev venet0 scope link
127.0.0.0/8 dev lo scope link
default via 192.0.2.1 dev venet0
server:~ # </programlisting>
<para>There are a couple of unique features of this
configuration:</para>
<itemizedlist>
<listitem>
<para>127.0.0.1/32 is configured on venet0 although the main routing
table routes loopback traffic through the <filename
class="devicefile">lo</filename> interface as normal.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>There is a route to 192.0.2.0/24 through venet0 even though
the interface has no IP address in that network. Note: 192.0.2.0/24
is reserved for use in documentation and for testing.</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>The default route is via 192.0.2.1 yet there is no interface
on the host with that IP address.</para>
</listitem>
</itemizedlist>
<para>All of this doesn't really affect the Shorewall configuration but
it is interesting none the less.</para>
</section>
<section>
<title>Shorewall Configuration</title>
<para>We recommend handlintg the strange OpenVZ configuration in
Shorewall as follows:</para>
<para><filename>/etc/shorewall/zones</filename>:</para>
<programlisting>###############################################################################
#ZONE TYPE OPTIONS IN OUT
# OPTIONS OPTIONS
vz ipv4</programlisting>
<para><filename>/etc/shorewall/interfaces</filename>:</para>
<programlisting>###############################################################################
#ZONE INTERFACE BROADCAST OPTIONS
vz venet0 - routeback,rp_filter=0</programlisting>
<para><filename>/etc/shorewall/proxyarp</filename> (assumes that
external interface is eth0):</para>
<programlisting>###############################################################################
#ADDRESS INTERFACE EXTERNAL HAVEROUTE PERSISTENT
206.124.146.178 venet0 eth0 Yes</programlisting>
</section>
<section>
<title>Multi-ISP</title>
<para>If you run Shorewall Multi-ISP support on the host, you should
arrange for traffic to your containers to use the main routing table. In
the configuration shown here, this entry in /etc/shorewall/route_rules
is appropriate:</para>
<programlisting>#SOURCE DEST PROVIDER PRIORITY
- 206.124.146.178 main 1000</programlisting>
</section>
<section>
<title>RFC 1918 Addresses in a Container</title>
<para>You can assign an RFC 1918 address to a VE and use masquerade/SNAT
to provide Internet access to the container. This is just a normal
simple Shorewall configuration as shown in the <ulink
url="two-interface.htm">Two-interface Quick Start Guide</ulink>. In this
configuration the firewall's internal interface is <filename
class="devicefile">venet0</filename>. Be sure to include the options
shown above.</para>
</section>
</section>
<section>
<title>Shorewall in an OpenVZ Virtual Environment</title>
<para>If you have obtained an OpenVZ VE from a hosting service provider,
you may find it difficult to configure any type of firewall within your
VE. There are two VE parameters that control iptables behavior within the
container:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>--iptables <replaceable>name </replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>Restrict access to iptables modules inside a container (The
OpenVZ claims that by default all iptables modules that are loaded
in the host system are accessible inside a container; I haven't
tried that).</para>
<para>You can use the following values for
<replaceable>name</replaceable>: <option>iptable_filter</option>,
<option>iptable_mangle</option>, <option>ipt_limit</option>,
<option>ipt_multiport</option>, <option>ipt_tos</option>,
<option>ipt_TOS</option>, <option>ipt_REJECT</option>,
<option>ipt_TCPMSS</option>, <option>ipt_tcpmss</option>,
<option>ipt_ttl</option>, <option>ipt_LOG</option>,
<option>ipt_length</option>, <option>ip_conntrack</option>,
<option>ip_conntrack_ftp</option>,
<option>ip_conntrack_irc</option>, <option>ipt_conntrack</option>,
<option>ipt_state</option>, <option>ipt_helper</option>,
<option>iptable_nat</option>, <option>ip_nat_ftp</option>,
<option>ip_nat_irc</option>, <option>ipt_REDIRECT</option>,
<option>xt_mac</option>, <option>ipt_owner</option>.</para>
<para>If your provider is using this option, you may be in deep
trouble trying to use Shorewall in your container. Look at the
output of <command>shorewall show capabilities</command> and weep.
Then try to get your provider to remove this restriction on your
container.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>--numiptent <replaceable>num</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>This parameter limits the number of iptables rules that are
allowed within the container. The default is 100 which is too small
for a Shorewall configuration. We recommend setting this to at least
200.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
</variablelist>
<para>if you see annoying error messages as shown below during
start/restart, remove the module-init-tools package.</para>
