NAME
tunnels - Shorewall VPN definition file
SYNOPSIS
/etc/shorewall/tunnels \kx
DESCRIPTION
The tunnels file is used to define rules for encapsulated (usually
encrypted) traffic to pass between the Shorewall system and a remote
gateway. Traffic flowing through the tunnel is handled using the normal
zone/policy/rule mechanism. See http://www.shorewall.net/VPNBasics.html
for details.
The columns in the file are as follows.
TYPE {ipsec[:noah]|ipsecnat|ipip|gre|pptpclient|pptpserver|{openvpn|openvpnclient|openvpnserver}[:{tcp|udp}][:port]|generic:protocol[:port]}
Types are as follows:
ipsec - IPv4 IPSEC
ipsecnat - IPv4 IPSEC with NAT Traversal (UDP port 4500 encapsulation)
ipip - IPv4 encapsulated in IPv4 (Protocol 4)
gre - Generalized Routing Encapsulation (Protocol 47)
pptpclient - PPTP Client runs on the firewall
pptpserver - PPTP Server runs on the firewall
openvpn - OpenVPN in point-to-point mode
openvpnclient - OpenVPN client runs on the firewall
openvpnserver - OpenVPN server runs on the firewall
generic - Other tunnel type
If the type is
ipsec, it may
be followed by
:noah to indicate
that the Authentication Headers protocol (51) is not used by the
tunnel. NAT traversal is only supported with ESP (protocol 50) so
ipsecnat tunnels don't require a
noah option (ipsecnat:noah may be specified but is
redundant).
If type is
openvpn, openvpnclient or openvpnserver it may optionally be followed
by ":" and
tcp or udp to specify the protocol to be used. If
not specified,
udp is
assumed.
If type is
openvpn, openvpnclient or openvpnserver it may optionally be followed
by ":" and the port number used by the tunnel. if no ":" and port
number are included, then the default port of 1194 will be used. .
Where both the protocol and port are specified, the protocol must be
given first (e.g., openvpn:tcp:4444).
If type is
generic, it must
be followed by ":" and a protocol name (from /etc/protocols) or a
protocol number. If the protocol is
tcp or udp
(6 or 17), then it may optionally be followed by ":" and a port
number.
ZONE - zone
The zone of the physical interface
through which tunnel traffic passes. This is normally your internet
zone.
GATEWAY address-or-range
The IP address of the remote tunnel gateway. If the remote
gateway has no fixed address (Road Warrior) then specify the gateway
as 0.0.0.0/0. May be specified as a
network address and if your kernel and iptables include iprange
match support then IP address ranges are also allowed.
GATEWAY ZONES (Optional) [zone[,zone]...]
If the gateway system specified in the third column is a
standalone host then this column should contain a comma-separated
list of the names of the zones that the host might be in. This
column only applies to IPSEC tunnels where it enables ISAKMP traffic
to flow through the tunnel to the remote gateway.
EXAMPLE
Example 1:
IPSec tunnel.
The remote gateway is 4.33.99.124 and the remote subnet is
192.168.9.0/24. The tunnel does not use the AH protocol
#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY
ipsec:noah net 4.33.99.124
Example 2:
Road Warrior (LapTop that may connect from anywhere) where the
"gw" zone is used to represent the remote LapTop
#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONES
ipsec net 0.0.0.0/0 gw
Example 3:
Host 4.33.99.124 is a standalone system connected via an ipsec
tunnel to the firewall system. The host is in zone gw.
#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONES
ipsec net 4.33.99.124 gw
Example 4:
Road Warriors that may belong to zones vpn1, vpn2 or vpn3. The
FreeS/Wan _updown script will add the host to the appropriate zone
using the shorewall add command on connect and
will remove the host from the zone at disconnect time.
#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONES
ipsec net 0.0.0.0/0 vpn1,vpn2,vpn3
Example 5:
You run the Linux PPTP client on your firewall and connect to
server 192.0.2.221.
#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONES
pptpclient net 192.0.2.221
Example 6:
You run a PPTP server on your firewall.
#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONES
pptpserver net
Example 7:
OPENVPN tunnel. The remote gateway is 4.33.99.124 and openvpn
uses port 7777.
#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONES
openvpn:7777 net 4.33.99.124
Example 8:
You have a tunnel that is not one of the supported types. Your
tunnel uses UDP port 4444. The other end of the tunnel is
4.3.99.124.
#TYPE ZONE GATEWAY GATEWAY ZONES
generic:udp:4444 net 4.3.99.124
