7) Support for IPv6 is available beginning with Shorewall 4.2.4.
Minimun system requirements:
Minimun system requirements for IPv6 support:
- Kernel 2.6.25 or later.
- iptables 1.4.0 or later with 1.4.1 strongly recommended.
- Perl 5.10 if you wish to use DNS names in your IPv6 config files.
In that case you will also have to install Perl Socket6 support.
Problems Corrected in 4.2.4-RC2
Problems Corrected in 4.2.4 RC3
1) The IPv6 sample configurations have been extensively reworked.
1) Previously, when exclusion was used in an entry in
/etc/shorewall/hosts, Shorewall-perl ignored the exclusion when
generating rules for the following OPTIONS in that entry:
blacklist
maclist
norfc1918
tcpflags
2) Special handling of 2000::/3 routes has been removed. Use 'default'
routes instead.
2) Shorewall-perl previously promoted all exclusion in the
/etc/shorewall/hosts file to the zone level. That meant that
all traffic to/from the zone passed through exclusion rules
rather than only the traffic matching a hosts records that
specified exclusion.
3) When a zone was not specified in an entry in
/etc/shorewall/interfaces, the Shorewall-perl compiler could fail
with ERROR: Unknown Zone ().
Example /etc/shorewall/hosts:
z eth0:192.168.4.0/24
z eth1:10.0.0.0/24!10.0.0.99
Traffic entering eth0 from network 192.168.4.0/24 would still
be checked for '!10.0.0.99'.
This has been corrected.
Known Problems Remaiining:
1) When exclusion is used in an entry in /etc/shorewall/hosts, then
Shorewall-shell produces an invalid iptables rule if any of the
following OPTIONS are also specified in the entry:
blacklist
maclist
norfc1918
tcpflags
