similar to: ipfw2 in 5.2.1

Dear list! I have a little problem, trying to enable logging of deny rule. I have enabled it via kernel: options IPFIREWALL options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT=3 It is ipfw2. After that, my inten- tion was to use syslogd and !ipfw *.* /var/log/ipfw.log and newsyslog with /var/log/ipfw.log 600 3 100 * J In rc.conf I have firewall_enable="YES"

Hello, I noticed that after enabling firewall in my kernel (5.3-release), my dmesg now gives me this: ipfw2 initialized, divert disabled, rule-based forwarding disabled, default to accept, logging limited to 5 packets/entry by default On 5.2.1, I used to get this: ipfw2 initialized, divert disabled, rule-based forwarding enabled, default to accept, logging disabled If both cases, I am

Hi. Since this revision (appeared in 6.3) I think ipfw violates POLA. I mean "ipfw table N list" shows values of table in Internet '.' notation. A friend of mine was surprised to found Internet representation of this "optional 32-bit unsigned value". For example security/bruteblock stores unix timestamps here and AFAICS there is no possibility to come back to the

Hi, I have a system with a 4.11 Kernel. Unless I'm doing something very wrong, there seems to be something odd with ipfw. Take the following rules: ipfw add 00280 allow tcp from any to any 22 out via bge0 setup keep- state ipfw add 00299 deny log all from any to any out via bge0 ipfw add 0430 allow log tcp from any to me 22 in via bge0 setup limit src-addr 2 ipfw add 00499 deny log

Dear All. I want to use 'not' for 2 addresses (for both) in ipfw2 rule. The only way that looks like what I need is # ipfw add count from IP1 to not IP2,IP3 But does this rule indeed makes what I want? Does it count all packets destined to addresses other then IP2 AND IP3?! No other syntax works. For example more logically correct not IP2 AND not IP3 or even not { IP2 or IP3 } are

Hello. I recently upgraded to 9.1-RC3, everything went fine, however the / partition its about to get full.

Hi all I am trying to get rid of strings: kernel: Connection attempt to UDP FREEBSD_IP:port from DNSSERVER_IP:53 on my console and in log file I understand that those are replies on DNS queries that for some reason took too long time to be answered. I do not want to turn off the "log in vain" feature. As these strings fill up my log I am afraid to miss some sensitive messages (e.g.

I hesitate to call this a "bug" as I don't know all the history behind the ipfw2 decisions, so let me toss this out there and see I'm just missing something. Overview ======== The negated operator, "not recv any" was taken to mean "any packet never received by an interface" believed to be equivalent to "any packet that originated on the current

We're being ping-flooded by the Nachi worm, which probes subnets for systems to attack by sending 92-byte ping packets. Unfortunately, IPFW doesn't seem to have the ability to filter packets by length. Assuming that I stick with IPFW, what's the best way to stem the tide? --Brett Glass

Hi. On my FreeBSD 4.8 configured IPFW2+IPF+IPNAT and I use them all: - IPFW - traffic accounting, shaping, balancing and filtering; - IPFilter - policy routing; - IPNAT - masquerading. I want to know, how IP-packets flow through all of this components? What's the path? incoming: IPFW Layer2 -> IPFW&Dummynet -> IPNAT -> IPFilter ? outgoing: IPFW Layer2 ->

This looks like a very cool feature addition to RELENG_7! Are there any performance penalties that you know of with this built in ? ---Mike At 09:13 PM 7/23/2008, Julian Elischer wrote: >julian 2008-07-24 01:13:22 UTC > > FreeBSD src repository > > Modified files: (Branch: RELENG_7) > contrib/pf/pfctl parse.y > lib/libc/sys

Hello, I''m looking how (if) can I solve the following problem using HTB and iproute2: I need to assing the same bandwidth limit to every client, but the problem is that clients will be random - i.e. I know niether number of clients no IP or MAC addresses. If anybody knows FreeBSD''s ipfw2 - I''m looking for something like "ipfw pipe 150 config mask dst-ip 0xffffffff

The man page gives this example, however, when I attempt to use it, it seems to block the whole set? Could someone tell me what's going wrong here please. Thanks heaps.. This works, ${fwcmd} add deny log all from any to 203.1.96.1 in via ${oif} This blocks the whole IP block, not just the list? ${fwcmd} add deny log all from any to 203.1.96.0/24{2,6-25,27-154,156-19

Hi, I need to know what the implications are to make use of the hosts.allow file on a FreeBSD Production Server (ISP Setup)? The reason I'm asking, is that I've recently decommisioned a Linux SendMail Server to a FreeBSD Exim Server, but with no Firewall (IPTABLES) yet. Besides the fact that it only runs EXIM and Apache, is it necessary to Configure rc.Firewall? or can I only make use of

Hello all. I am new to the list and relitively new to FreeBSD. I currently have a server running 4.8 as a dedicated server with cPanel added as a way to speed up the creation of sites and such on the server. I host only a couple of site because I do this in my spare time and don't know enough to be a paid participant in the hosting community. Anyway, on to the question, lastnight, the server

Hi, Two quick questions that I can't seem to find answers for using google. 1) is is possible to listen outside an ipfw firewall - that is have ethereal record the packets before ipfw starts dropping them? If so how? 2) Is there an api to ipfw that will let me manipulate rules, query stats etc? I need something faster than running the command line binary? Thanks John

Hi, has anybody an example of firewall rules written with IPFW2 using the MAC asdress? Regards, Dirk Hombrecher
