<title>Description</title>
<para>This file allows you to define new ACTIONS for use in rules (see
<ulink url="shorewall-rules.html">shorewall-rules(5)</ulink>).
You define the iptables rules to be performed in an ACTION in
/etc/shorewall/action.<emphasis>action-name</emphasis>.</para>
<para>Columns are:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term>NAME</term>
<listitem>
<para>The name of the action. ACTION names should begin with an
upper-case letter to distinguish them from Shorewall-generated chain
names and be composed of letters, digits or numbers. If you intend
to log from the action then the name must be no longer than 11
characters in length if you use the standard LOGFORMAT.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term>OPTIONS</term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 4.5.10. Available options are:</para>
<variablelist>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>audit</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 5.0.7. When this option is specified,
the action is expected to have at least two parameters; the
first is a target and the second is either 'audit' or omitted.
If the second is 'audit', then the first must be an auditable
target (ACCEPT, DROP or REJECT).</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>builtin</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 4.5.16. Defines the action as a rule
target that is supported by your iptables but is not directly
supported by Shorewall. The action may be used as the rule
target in an INLINE rule in <ulink
url="shorewall-rules.html">shorewall-rules</ulink>(5).</para>
<para>Beginning with Shorewall 4.6.0, the Netfilter table(s)
in which the <emphasis role="bold">builtin</emphasis> can be
used may be specified: <emphasis
role="bold">filter</emphasis>, <emphasis
role="bold">nat</emphasis>, <emphasis
role="bold">mangle</emphasis> and <emphasis
role="bold">raw</emphasis>. If no table name(s) are given,
then <emphasis role="bold">filter</emphasis> is assumed. The
table names follow <emphasis role="bold">builtin</emphasis>
and are separated by commas; for example, "FOOBAR
builtin,filter,mangle" would specify FOOBAR as a builtin
target that can be used in the filter and mangle
tables.</para>
<para>Beginning with Shorewall 4.6.4, you may specify the
<emphasis role="bold">terminating</emphasis> option with
<emphasis role="bold">builtin</emphasis> to indicate to the
Shorewall optimizer that the action is terminating (the
current packet will not be passed to the next rule in the
chain).</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>inline</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Causes the action body (defined in
action.<replaceable>action-name</replaceable>) to be expanded
in-line like a macro rather than in its own chain. You can
list Shorewall Standard Actions in this file to specify the
<option>inline</option> option.</para>
<caution>
<para>Some of the Shorewall standard actions cannot be used
in-line and will generate a warning and the compiler will
ignore <option>inline</option> if you try to use them that
way:</para>
<simplelist>
<member>DropSmurfs</member>
<member>IfEvent</member>
<member>Invalid (Prior to Shorewall 4.5.13)</member>
<member>NotSyn (Prior to Shorewall 4.5.13)</member>
<member>RST (Prior to Shorewall 4.5.13)</member>
<member>TCPFlags</member>
</simplelist>
</caution>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>logjump</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 5.0.8. Performs the same function as
<option>nolog</option> (below), with the addition that the
jump to the actions chain is logged if a log level is
specified on the action invocation. For inline actions, this
option is identical to <option>nolog</option>.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>mangle</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 5.0.7. Specifies that this action is
to be used in <ulink
url="shorewall-mangle.html">shorewall-mangle(5)</ulink>
rather than <ulink
url="shorewall-rules.html">shorewall-rules(5)</ulink>.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>nat</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 5.0.13. Specifies that this action is
to be used in <ulink
url="shorewall-snat.html">shorewall-snat(5)</ulink>
rather than <ulink
url="shorewall-rules.html">shorewall-rules(5)</ulink>.
The <option>mangle</option> and <option>nat</option> options
are mutually exclusive.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>noinline</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Causes any later <option>inline</option> option for the
same action to be ignored with a warning.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>nolog</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 4.5.11. When this option is
specified, the compiler does not automatically apply the log
level and/or tag from the invocation of the action to all
rules inside of the action. Rather, it simply sets the
$_loglevel and $_logtag shell variables which can be used
within the action body to apply those logging options only to
a subset of the rules.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>proto</option>=<replaceable>protocol</replaceable></term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 5.1.10. Specifies that the action is
only usable with the specified
<replaceable>protocol</replaceable> (name or number). When the
action is invoked with no protocol specified in the PROTO
column, or if the action is used as a Policy Action, the named
<replaceable>protocol</replaceable> will be assumed. If a
protocol is specified in the PROTO column of an invocation,
then it must match the named
<replaceable>protocol</replaceable>.</para>
<para>The <option>proto</option> option has no effect if the
<option>inline</option> or <option>builtin</option> option is
specified. A warning is issued if <option>proto</option> is
specified along with <option>builtin</option>.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>section</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 5.1.1. When specified, this option
causes the rules file section name and a comma to be prepended
to the parameters passed to the action (if any). Note that
this means that the first parameter passed to the action by
the user is actually the second parameter to the action. If
the action is invoked out of the blrules file, 'BLACKLIST' is
used as the section name.</para>
<para>Given that neither the <filename>snat</filename> nor the
<filename>mangle</filename> file is sectioned, this parameter
has no effect when <option>mangle</option> or
<option>nat</option> is specified.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>state</option>={<option>UNTRACKED</option>|<option>NEW</option>|<option>ESTABLISHED</option>|<option>RELATED</option>|<option>INVALID</option>}</term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 5.0.7. Reserved for use by Shorewall
in <filename>actions.std</filename>.</para>
</listitem>
</varlistentry>
<varlistentry>
<term><option>terminating</option></term>
<listitem>
<para>Added in Shorewall 4.6.4. When used with
<option>builtin</option>, indicates that the built-in action
is termiating (i.e., if the action is jumped to, the next rule
in the chain is not evaluated).</para>
