|
|
|
|
<para>Shorewall accounting rules are described in the file
|
|
/etc/shorewall/accounting. By default, the accounting rules are placed in
|
|
a chain called <quote>accounting</quote> and can thus be displayed using
|
|
<quote>shorewall[-lite] show accounting</quote>. All traffic passing into,
|
|
out of, or through the firewall traverses the accounting chain including
|
|
traffic that will later be rejected by interface options such as
|
|
<quote>tcpflags</quote> and <quote>maclist</quote>. If your kernel doesn't
|
|
support the connection tracking match extension (Kernel 2.4.21) then some
|
|
traffic rejected under <quote>norfc1918</quote> will not traverse the
|
|
accounting chain.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The columns in the accounting file are as follows:</para>
|
|
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|

<para><emphasis role="bold">ACTION </emphasis>- What to do when a

|
|
<chain>. Chain names must start with a letter, must be
|
|
composed of letters and digits, and may contain underscores
|
|
(<quote>_</quote>) and periods (<quote>.</quote>). Beginning with
|
|
Shorewall version 1.4.8, chain names may also contain embedded

If the PROTOCOL is "ipp2p", then this column is interpreted as an

<para>When this column is non-empty, the rule applies only if the

</itemizedlist>
|
|
|
|
<para>In all columns except ACTION and CHAIN, the values
|
|
<quote>-</quote>,<quote>any</quote> and <quote>all</quote> are treated as
|
|
wild-cards.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The accounting rules are evaluated in the Netfilter
|
|
<quote>filter</quote> table. This is the same environment where the
|
|
<quote>rules</quote> file rules are evaluated and in this environment,
|
|
DNAT has already occurred in inbound packets and SNAT has not yet occurred
|
|
on outbound ones.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>Accounting rules are not stateful -- each rule only handles traffic
|
|
in one direction. For example, if eth0 is your internet interface, and you
|
|
have a web server in your DMZ connected to eth1, then to count HTTP
|
|
traffic in both directions requires two rules:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting> #ACTION CHAIN SOURCE DESTINATION PROTOCOL DEST SOURCE
|
|
# PORT PORT
|
|
DONE - eth0 eth1 tcp 80
|
|
DONE - eth1 eth0 tcp - 80</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>Associating a counter with a chain allows for nice reporting. For
|
|
example:</para>
|
|
|
|
<programlisting> #ACTION CHAIN SOURCE DESTINATION PROTOCOL DEST SOURCE
|
|
# PORT PORT
|
|
web:COUNT - eth0 eth1 tcp 80
|
|
web:COUNT - eth1 eth0 tcp - 80
|
|
web:COUNT - eth0 eth1 tcp 443
|
|
web:COUNT - eth1 eth0 tcp - 443
|
|
DONE web</programlisting>
|
|
|
|
<para>Now <quote>shorewall show web</quote> (or "shorewall-lite show web"
|
|
for Shorewall Lite users) will give you a breakdown of your web
|
|
traffic:</para>

|
<para>The structure of the accounting rules changes slightly when there
|
|
are <ulink url="bridge-Shorewall-perl.html">bridges</ulink> defined in the
|
|
Shorewall configuration. Because of the restrictions imposed by Netfilter
|
|
in kernel 2.6.21 and later, output accounting rules must be segregated
|
|
from forwarding and input rules. To accomplish this separation,
|
|
Shorewall-perl creates two accounting chains:</para>
|
|
|
|
<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem>
|
|
<para><emphasis role="bold">accounting</emphasis> - for input and

forwarded traffic.</para>

|

traffic.</para>

</listitem>

|
<para>If the CHAIN column contains '-', then:</para>

<itemizedlist>
|
|
<listitem>

<para>If the SOURCE column in a rule includes the name of the firewall

<para>Otherwise, if the DEST in the rule is <emphasis
|

role="bold">any</emphasis> or <emphasis role="bold">all</emphasis> or

0.0.0.0/0, then the rule is added to both <emphasis

role="bold">accountout</emphasis>.</para>
