<ul>
<li>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;"><a href="http://www.netfilter.org/"
target="_top">Netfilter</a> - the packet filter facility built into
the 2.4 and later Linux kernels. </p>
</li>
<li>
<p style="margin-bottom: 0in;">ipchains - the packet filter
facility built into the 2.2 Linux kernels. Also the name of the utility
program used to configure and control that facility. Netfilter can be
used in ipchains compatibility mode. </p>
</li>
<li>
<p>iptables - the utility program used to configure and control
Netfilter. The term 'iptables' is often used to refer to the
combination of iptables+Netfilter (with Netfilter not in ipchains
compatibility mode). </p>
</li>
</ul>
<h3><a name="WhatIs"></a>What is Shorewall?</h3>
<p style="margin-left: 0.42in;">The Shoreline Firewall, more commonly
known as "Shorewall", is a high-level tool for configuring
Netfilter. You describe your firewall/gateway requirements using
entries in a set of configuration files. Shorewall reads those
configuration files and with the help of the iptables utility,
Shorewall configures Netfilter to match your requirements. Shorewall
can be used on a dedicated firewall system, a multi-function
gateway/router/server or on a standalone GNU/Linux system. Shorewall
does not use Netfilter's ipchains compatibility mode and can thus
take advantage of Netfilter's <a
href="http://www.cs.princeton.edu/%7Ejns/security/iptables/iptables_conntrack.html"
target="_top">connection
state tracking capabilities</a>.<br>
<br>
Shorewall is <u>not</u> a
daemon. Once Shorewall has configured Netfilter, it's job is
complete. After that, there is no Shorewall code running although the
<a href="starting_and_stopping_shorewall.htm">/sbin/shorewall program
can be used at any time to monitor the Netfilter firewall</a>.</p>
<h3><a name="GettingStarted"></a>Getting Started with Shorewall</h3>
<p style="margin-left: 0.42in;">New to Shorewall? Start by selecting
the <a href="shorewall_quickstart_guide.htm">QuickStart Guide</a>
that most closely matches your environment and follow the step by
step instructions.</p>
<h3><a name="Info"></a>Looking for Information?</h3>
<p style="margin-left: 0.42in;">The <a href="Documentation_Index.html">Documentation
Index</a> is a good place to start as is the Quick Search in the
frame above. </p>
<h3><a name="Mandrake"></a>Running Shorewall on Mandrake® with a
two-interface setup?</h3>
<p style="margin-left: 0.42in;">If so, the documentation on this site
will not apply directly to your setup. If you want to use the
documentation that you find here, you will want to consider
uninstalling what you have and installing a setup that matches the
documentation on this site. See the <a href="two-interface.htm">Two-interface
QuickStart Guide</a> for details.<br>
<br>
<b>Update: </b>I've been
informed by Mandrake Development that this problem has been corrected
in Mandrake 10.0 Final (the problem still exists in the 10.0
Community release).</p>

<span style="font-weight: bold;"><a name="2_2_0_Beta7"></a>12/04/2004 -
Shorewall 2.2.0 Beta 7<br>
</span><br>
Problems Corrected:<br>
<ol>
<li>The "shorewall add" and "shorewall delete" commands now work in a
bridged environment. The syntax is:<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; shorewall
add &lt;interface&gt;[:&lt;port&gt;]:&lt;address&gt; &lt;zone&gt;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; shorewall
delete &lt;interface&gt;[:&lt;port&gt;]:&lt;address&gt; &lt;zone&gt;<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp; Examples:<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; shorewall
add br0:eth2:192.168.1.3 OK<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; shorewall
delete br0:eth2:192.168.1.3 OK<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Previously, "shorewall save" created an out-of-sequence restore
script. The commands saved in the user's /etc/shorewall/start script
were executed prior to the Netfilter configuration being restored. This
has been corrected so that "shorewall save" now places those commands
at the end of the script.<br>
<br>
To accomplish this change, the "restore base" file
(/var/lib/shorewall/restore-base) has been split into two files:<br>
&nbsp;<br>
/var/lib/shorewall/restore-base -- commands to be executed before
Netfilter the configuration is restored.<br>
&nbsp;<br>
/var/lib/shorewall/restore-tail -- commands to be executed after the
Netfilter configuration is restored.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Previously, traffic from the firewall to a dynamic zone member
host did not need to match the interface specified when the host was
added to the zone. For example, if eth0:1.2.3.4 is added to dynamic
zone Z then traffic out of any firewall interface to 1.2.3.4 will obey
the fw-&gt;Z policies and rules. This has been corrected.</li>
<li>Shorewall uses the temporary chain 'fooX1234' to probe iptables
for detrmining which features are supported. Previously, if that chain
happened to exist when Shorewall was run, capabilities were
mis-detected.</li>
</ol>
New Features:<br>
<ol>
<li>You can now use the "shorewall show zones" command to display the
current contents of the zones. This is particularly useful if you use
dynamic zones (DYNAMIC_ZONES=Yes in shorewall.conf).<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Example:<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ursa:/etc/shorewall #
shorewall show zones<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Shorewall-2.2.0-Beta7 Zones
at ursa - Sat Nov 27 11:18:25 PST 2004<br>
&nbsp; <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; loc<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
eth0:192.168.1.0/24<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
eth1:1.2.3.4<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; net<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
eth0:0.0.0.0/0<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; WiFi<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
eth1:0.0.0.0/0<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; sec<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
eth1:0.0.0.0/0<br>
&nbsp; <br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ursa:/etc/shorewall #<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Variable expansion may now be used with the INCLUDE directive.<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Example:<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; /etc/shorewall/params<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
FILE=/etc/foo/bar<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Any other config file:<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
INCLUDE $FILE<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>The output of "shorewall status" now includes the results of "ip
-stat link ls". This helps diagnose performance problems caused by link
errors.</li>
<li>Previously, when rate-limiting was specified in
/etc/shorewall/policy (LIMIT:BURST column), any traffic which exceeded
the specified rate was silently dropped. Now, if a log<br>
level is given in the entry (LEVEL column) then drops are logged at
that level at a rate of 5/min with a burst of 5.<br>
</li>

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; shorewall delete

<br>
</span>Problems Corrected:<br>
<ol>
<li>The "shorewall check" command results in the (harmless) error
message:<br>
&nbsp;<br>
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

<li>When log rule numbers are included in the LOGFORMAT, duplicate
rule numbers could previously be generated.</li>

that rule evaluation continues after a match.</li>
<li>The error message produced if Shorewall couldn't obtain the
routes
through an interface named in the SUBNET column of /etc/shorewall/masq
was less than helpful since it didn't include the interface name.<br>
</li>
</ol>
New Features:<br>

<li>The behavior produced by specifying a log level in an action
invocation is now much more rational. Previously, all packets sent to
the action were logged; now each rule within the invoked action behaves
as if logging had been specified on it.</li>
<li>Support for the 2.6 Kernel's native IPSEC implementation is now
available.</li>
<li>Support for ipp2p is included.</li>
<li>Support for the iptables CONNMARK facility is now included in
Shorewall.</li>
<li>A new LOGALLNEW option facilitates problem analysis.</li>
<li>Users with a large static blacklist can now defer loading the
blacklist until after the rest of the ruleset has been enabled. Doing
so can decrease substantially the amount of time that connections are
disabled during <span style="font-weight: bold;">shorewall [re]start</span>.</li>
<li>Support for the iptables 'iprange match' feature has been
enabled. Users whose kernel and iptables contain this feature can use
ip address ranges in most places in their Shorewall configuration where
a CIDR netowrk can be used.</li>
<li>Accepting of source routing and martian logging may now be
enabled/disabled on each interface.</li>
<li>Shorewall now supports the CLASSIFY iptable target.</li>
