<section id="Routed">
<title>Bridging two Masqueraded Networks</title>
<para>Suppose that we have the following situation:</para>
<graphic fileref="images/TwoNets1.png" />
<para>We want systems in the 192.168.1.0/24 subnetwork to be able to
communicate with the systems in the 10.0.0.0/8 network. This is
accomplished through use of the
<filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> file and the
<filename>/etc/shorewall/policy file</filename> and OpenVPN.</para>
<para>While it was possible to use the Shorewall start and stop script to
start and stop OpenVPN, I decided to use the init script of OpenVPN to
start and stop it.</para>
<para>On each firewall, you will need to declare a zone to represent the
remote subnet. We'll assume that this zone is called <quote>vpn</quote>
and declare it in <filename>/etc/shorewall/zones</filename> on both
systems as follows.</para>
<blockquote>
<para><filename>/etc/shorewall/zones</filename> — Systems A &amp;
B</para>
<programlisting>#ZONE TYPE OPTIONS IN OUT
# OPTIONS OPTIONS
vpn ipv4</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>On system A, the 10.0.0.0/8 will comprise the <emphasis
role="bold">vpn</emphasis> zone.</para>
<blockquote>
<para>In <filename>/etc/shorewall/interfaces</filename> on system
A:</para>
<programlisting>#ZONE INTERFACE BROADCAST OPTIONS
vpn tun0</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>In <filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> on system A, we need
the following:</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
openvpn net 134.28.54.2</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>This entry in <filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> opens the
firewall so that OpenVPN traffic on the default port 1194/udp will be
accepted to/from the remote gateway. If you change the port used by
OpenVPN to 7777, you can define /etc/shorewall/tunnels like this:</para>
<blockquote>
<para>/etc/shorewall/tunnels with port 7777:</para>
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
openvpn:7777 net 134.28.54.2</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>Similarly, if you want to use TCP for your tunnel rather than UDP
(the default), then you can define /etc/shorewall/tunnels like
this:</para>
<blockquote>
<para>/etc/shorewall/tunnels using TCP:</para>
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
openvpn:tcp net 134.28.54.2</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>Finally, if you want to use TCP and port 7777:</para>
<blockquote>
<para>/etc/shorewall/tunnels using TCP port 7777:</para>
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
openvpn:tcp:7777 net 134.28.54.2</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>This is the OpenVPN config on system A:</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>dev tun
local 206.162.148.9
remote 134.28.54.2
ifconfig 192.168.99.1 192.168.99.2
route 10.0.0.0 255.0.0.0 192.168.99.2
tls-server
dh dh1024.pem
ca ca.crt
cert my-a.crt
key my-a.key
comp-lzo
verb 5</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>Similarly, On system B the 192.168.1.0/24 subnet will comprise the
<emphasis role="bold">vpn</emphasis> zone</para>
<blockquote>
<para>In <filename>/etc/shorewall/interfaces</filename> on system
B:</para>
<programlisting>#ZONE INTERFACE BROADCAST OPTIONS
vpn tun0 </programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>In <filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> on system B, we
have:</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
openvpn net 206.191.148.9</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>And in the OpenVPN config on system B:</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>dev tun
local 134.28.54.2
remote 206.162.148.9
ifconfig 192.168.99.2 192.168.99.1
route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.99.1
tls-client
ca ca.crt
cert my-b.crt
key my-b.key
comp-lzo
verb 5</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>You will need to allow traffic between the <quote>vpn</quote> zone
and the <quote>loc</quote> zone on both systems -- if you simply want to
admit all traffic in both directions, you can use the policy file:</para>
<blockquote>
<para><filename>/etc/shorewall/policy </filename>on systems A &amp;
B</para>
<programlisting>#SOURCE DEST POLICY LOG LEVEL
loc vpn ACCEPT
vpn loc ACCEPT</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>On both systems, restart Shorewall and start OpenVPN. The systems in
the two masqueraded subnetworks can now talk to each other.</para>
</section>
<section id="RoadWarrior">
<title>Roadwarrior</title>
<para>OpenVPN 2.0 provides excellent support for roadwarriors. Consider
the setup in the following diagram:</para>
<graphic fileref="images/Mobile.png" />
<para>On the gateway system (System A), we need a zone to represent the
remote clients — we'll call that zone <quote>road</quote>.</para>
<blockquote>
<para><filename>/etc/shorewall/zones</filename> — System A:</para>
<programlisting>#ZONE TYPE OPTIONS IN OUT
# OPTIONS OPTIONS
road ipv4</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>On system A, the remote clients will comprise the <emphasis
role="bold">road</emphasis> zone.</para>
<blockquote>
<para>In <filename>/etc/shorewall/interfaces</filename> on system
A:</para>
<programlisting>#ZONE INTERFACE BROADCAST OPTIONS
road tun+</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>In <filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> on system A, we need
the following:</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
openvpn:1194 net 0.0.0.0/0</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>If you are running Shorewall 2.4.3 or later, you might prefer the
following in <filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> on system A.
Specifying the tunnel type as openvpnserver has the advantage that the VPN
connection will still work if the client is behind a gateway/firewall that
uses NAT.</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
openvpnserver:1194 net 0.0.0.0/0</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>We want the remote systems to have access to the local LAN — we do
that with an entry in <filename>/etc/shorewall/policy</filename> (assume
that the local LAN comprises the zone <quote>loc</quote>).</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>#SOURCE DESTINATION POLICY
road loc ACCEPT</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>The OpenVPN configuration file on system A is something like the
following:</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>dev tun
server 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0
dh dh1024.pem
ca /etc/certs/cacert.pem
crl-verify /etc/certs/crl.pem
cert /etc/certs/SystemA.pem
key /etc/certs/SystemA_key.pem
port 1194
comp-lzo
user nobody
group nogroup
ping 15
ping-restart 45
ping-timer-rem
persist-tun
persist-key
push "route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0"
verb 3</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>Configuration on the remote clients follows a similar line. We
define a zone to represent the remote LAN:</para>
<blockquote>
<para><filename>/etc/shorewall/zones</filename> — System B:</para>
<programlisting>#ZONE TYPE OPTIONS IN OUT
# OPTIONS OPTIONS
home ipv4</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>On system A, the hosts accessible through the tunnel will comprise
the <emphasis role="bold">home</emphasis> zone.</para>
<blockquote>
<para>In <filename>/etc/shorewall/interfaces</filename> on system
B:</para>
<programlisting>#ZONE INTERFACE BROADCAST OPTIONS
home tun0</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>In <filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> on system B, we need
the following:</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
openvpn:1194 net 206.162.148.9</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>Again, if you are running Shorewall 2.4.3 or later, in
<filename>/etc/shorewall/tunnels</filename> on system B you might
prefer:</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONE
openvpnclient:1194 net 206.162.148.9</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>We want the remote client to have access to the local LAN — we do
that with an entry in <filename>/etc/shorewall/policy</filename>.</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>#SOURCE DESTINATION POLICY
$FW home ACCEPT</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>The OpenVPN configuration on the remote clients is along the
following line:</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>dev tun
remote 206.162.148.9
up /etc/openvpn/home.up
tls-client
pull
ca /etc/certs/cacert.pem
cert /etc/certs/SystemB.pem
key /etc/certs/SystemB_key.pem
port 1194
user nobody
group nogroup
comp-lzo
ping 15
ping-restart 45
ping-timer-rem
persist-tun
persist-key
verb 3</programlisting>
</blockquote>
<para>If you want multiple remote clients to be able to communicate openly
with each other then you must:</para>
<orderedlist>
<listitem>
<para>Include the <emphasis role="bold">client-to-client</emphasis>
directive in the server's OpenVPN configuration; or</para>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<para>Specify the <emphasis role="bold">routeback</emphasis> option on
the <filename class="devicefile">tun+</filename> device in <ulink

<section id="Dupnet">
<title>Roadwarrior with Duplicate Network Issue</title>
<para>The information in this section was contributed by Nicola
Moretti.</para>
<para>If your local lan uses a popular RFC 1918 network like
192.168.1.0/24, there will be times when your roadwarriors need to access
your lan from a remote location that uses that same network.</para>
<graphic align="center" fileref="images/Mobile1.png" />
<para>This may be accomplished by configuring a second server on your
firewall that uses a different port and by using <ulink
url="netmap.html">NETMAP</ulink> in your Shorewall configuration. The
server configuration in the above diagram is modified as shown
here:</para>
<blockquote>
<programlisting>dev tun
<emphasis role="bold">server 192.168.3.0 255.255.255.0</emphasis>

<para>In <filename>/etc/shorewall/netmap</filename>, put these
entries:</para>
<blockquote>

<para>The roadwarrior can now connect to port 1195 and access the lan on
the right as 172.20.1.0/24.</para>

<section>
<title>Bridging Two Networks</title>
<para>Occasionally, the need arises to have a single LAN span two
different geographical locations. OpenVPN allows that to be done
easily.</para>
<para>Consider the following case:</para>
<graphic align="center" fileref="images/bridge4.png" />
<para>Part of the 192.168.1.0/24 network is in one location and part in
another. The two LANs can be bridged with OpenVPN as described in this
section. This example uses a fixed shared key for encryption.</para>
<para>OpenVPN configuration on left-hand firewall:</para>
<programlisting>remote 130.252.100.109
dev tap0
secret /etc/openvpn/bridgekey</programlisting>
<para>OpenVPN configuration on right-hand firewall:</para>
<programlisting>remote 206.124.146.176
dev tap0
secret /etc/openvpn/bridgekey</programlisting>
<para>The bridges can be created by manually making the tap device tap0
and bridgeing it with the local ethernet interface. Assuming that the
local interface on both sides is eth1, the following stanzas in
/etc/network/interfaces (Debian and derivatives) will create the bridged
interfaces.</para>
<para>/etc/network/interfaces on the left-hand firewall:</para>
<programlisting>iface br0 inet static
pre-up /usr/sbin/openvpn --mktun --dev tap0
pre-up /usr/sbin/brctl addbr br1
