<li>An OLD_PING_HANDLING option has been added to shorewall.conf.
When set to Yes, Shorewall ping handling is as it has always been (see
http://www.shorewall.net/ping.html).<br>
<br>
When OLD_PING_HANDLING=No, icmp echo (ping) is handled via rules and
policies just like any other connection request. The FORWARDPING=Yes option
in shorewall.conf and the 'noping' and 'filterping' options in /etc/shorewall/interfaces
will all generate an error.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>It is now possible to direct Shorewall to create a "label" such
as<61> "eth0:0" for IP addresses that it creates under ADD_IP_ALIASES=Yes
and ADD_SNAT_ALIASES=Yes. This is done by specifying the label instead
of just the interface name:<br>
<20><br>
<20><> a) In the INTERFACE column of /etc/shorewall/masq<br>
<20><> b) In the INTERFACE column of /etc/shorewall/nat<br>
<20></li>
<li>Support for OpenVPN Tunnels.<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>Support for VLAN devices with names of the form $DEV.$VID (e.g.,
eth0.0)<br>
<br>
</li>
<li>When an interface name is entered in the SUBNET column of the
/etc/shorewall/masq file, Shorewall previously masqueraded traffic from
only the first subnet defined on that interface. It did not masquerade
traffic from:<br>
<20><br>
<20><> a) The subnets associated with other addresses on the interface.<br>
<20><> b) Subnets accessed through local routers.<br>
<20><br>
Beginning with Shorewall 1.3.14, if you enter an interface name in the
SUBNET column, shorewall will use the firewall's routing table to construct
the masquerading/SNAT rules.<br>
<20><br>
Example 1 -- This is how it works in 1.3.14.<br>

When upgrading to Shorewall 1.3.14, if you have multiple local subnets
connected to an interface that is specified in the SUBNET column of an /etc/shorewall/masq
entry, your /etc/shorewall/masq file will need changing. In most cases,
you will simply be able to remove redundant entries. In some cases though,
you might want to change from using the interface name to listing specific
subnetworks if the change described above will cause masquerading to occur
on subnetworks that you don't wish to masquerade.<br>
