Title: Problems with interzone firewall Post by: jbieler on Wednesday 30 June 2010, 11:08:27 pm Hi,
i get some strange effects with interzone firewall. It seems that this firewall dropps all packages. My environmet : efw. 2.4.0 Comunity kernel 2.6.27.19-72.e25 Green. 192.168.1.0/24 Blue 192.168.2.0/24 As wireless systems I use Notebooks which are connected via VPN, these systems are not the problem. The problem is that I have to use some Pinholes ininterzone FW to access upnp servers and media content with mobile devices. SoIneed access from Blue to green on some Ports. I tried different things like usingIP-Adresses, MAC Adresses,Interfaces and Zones in this rules nothing works. I also disabled the whole interzone FW like manual said, but all Packetsare dropped. From my point of view it looks like a bug. Anyone got the same Problems Regards Title: Re: Problems with interzone firewall Post by: ybjones72 on Tuesday 06 July 2010, 05:08:22 am I am having the same issue.
Green: 192.168.1.1/24 Orange: 192.168.25.1/24 Blue: 192.168.2.1/24 I can ping the Orange or Blue interface address from the Green zone but I cannot ping any hosts in the Orange or Blue zone from the Green zone. I have the interzone firewall turned on with the Green->Orange allow all and the Green->Blue allow all enabled. Even if I turn the interzone firewall off, I still cannot ping any hosts in the Blue or Orange from the Green. I can SSH into the Endian box and ping hosts in either just fine. Need to get this resolved but I am at a loss. -Yancey Title: Re: Problems with interzone firewall Post by: arminf on Tuesday 06 July 2010, 06:15:09 am hm.. i have no issues between blue and green
interzone firewall blue to green allow 5900, cifs/smb, 8000 TCP+UDP Source Mac address Dest. IP address Endian 2.4 Ping is ICMP Title: Re: Problems with interzone firewall Post by: ybjones72 on Friday 09 July 2010, 11:32:58 pm The default setting when turning on the inter-zone firewall is supposed to allow all from Green to Orange. However this does not work. When turning the inter-zone firewall OFF then all traffic is allowed from both directions. This does not work either. This is a problem that more than one person is experiencing.
I have tried adding static routes to no avail. What is weird, I can ping one system in the orange zone... 192.168.25.1 Orange NIC IP Address, pingable from Green 192.168.25.2 Orange zone Wireless AP, NOT pingable from Green 192.168.25.3 Orange Zone Wireless Bridge, NOT pingable from Green 192.168.25.82 Orange Zone Web server, pingable from Green I can ping the Web server but not the wireless units. I can ping everything from the Orange zone. Their default gateways are set to 192.168.25.1, just like the Web server. Maybe I jumped the gun with 2.4 because there are other issues that are happening as well.

From my point of view it looks like a bug. Anyone got the same Problems Regards Some things to check/try - ssh on to endian box (or from console) Make sure ip_forward id ON cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward 1 If the result is 0, try echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward And check cat /etc/sysctl.conf | grep ip_forward should show net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 Also ip ro sho Should contain: 192.168.25.0/24 dev br1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.25.1 I do not presently have quite the same set-up so if this does not help feel free to post more info on your firewall and route table. Title: Re: Problems with interzone firewall Post by: ybjones72 on Wednesday 21 July 2010, 02:20:33 am Everything looks right.
======================================== root@frsgw:~ # cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward 1 root@frsgw:~ # cat /etc/sysctl.conf | grep ip_forward net.ipv4.ip_forward = 1 root@frsgw:~ # ip ro sho X.X.X.X/30 dev eth0 proto kernel scope link src X.X.X.X 192.168.2.0/24 dev br2 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.2.1 192.168.1.0/24 dev br0 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.1.1 192.168.25.0/24 dev br1 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.25.1 default via X.X.X.X dev eth0 ======================================== I can ping anything on the 192.168.25.0/24 network from the Endian box with no problems. It's just some IPs on the 25 side are not reachable from the 192.168.1.0/24 network. Thanks. Title: Re: Problems with interzone firewall Post by: DFen on Wednesday 21 July 2010, 04:01:16 am When you ping from green your source ip is in the range 192.168.1.0/24
When you ping from endian your source ip is 192.168.25.1 - i.e. in the same subnet as your target. Do your wireless devices have default route set to 192.168.25.1 or at least a route to 192.168.2.0/24 via 192.168.25.1 You may be able to check this using ping -I 192.168.1.1 192.168.25.3 |
