Title: EFW SOFTWARE UTM 2.3 - Any way to setup network interfaces from the shell? Post by: sineater on Sunday 04 July 2010, 01:56:07 am I purchased the Endian Software UTM v.2.3 and want to install it on a virtual machine that is being hosted by my service provider. I won't have immediate access to a machine within the green zone each time I image the box, so I was looking for a way to set up the RED network so that I could configure the box through the endian network once it is connecting to the world. I am accessing the shell through the VMWare console to which I have access to the machine.
Does anyone know how to do this through the shell? Thanks in advance and sorry for the noob question. SE Title: Re: EFW SOFTWARE UTM 2.3 - Any way to setup network interfaces from the shell? Post by: mrkroket on Sunday 04 July 2010, 03:04:01 am nano /var/efw/uplinks/main/settings
You can edit there your RED settings: AUTOSTART=on BACKUPPROFILE= CHECKHOSTS= DEFAULT_GATEWAY=X.X.X.X DNS1=X.X.X.X DNS2=X.X.X.X ENABLED=on MAC= MANAGED=on MTU= ONBOOT=on RED_ADDRESS=X.X.X.125 RED_BROADCAST=X.X.X.127 RED_CIDR=28 RED_DEV=eth1 RED_IPS=X.X.X.125/28 RED_NETADDRESS=X.X.X.112 RED_NETMASK=X.X.X.240 RED_TYPE=STATIC Besides that, you'll probably need a Firewall rule for external system access: nano /var/efw/xtaccess/config Add a line like: ,Y.Y.Y.Y,,on,,ANY,,INPUTFW,ALLOW,,External Access After that, reboot the system and cross your fingers Title: Re: EFW SOFTWARE UTM 2.3 - Any way to setup network interfaces from the shell? Post by: sineater on Sunday 04 July 2010, 03:08:02 am Wow, thanks for the response. I shall try and see how it goes.
One question, what is the difference between RED_CIDR/RED_NETMASK and RED_ADDRESS/RED_NETADDRESS? Thank you again!

Post by: mrkroket on Tuesday 06 July 2010, 07:43:47 am RED_NETADDRESS is the subnet adress on your lan. i.e. on 192.168.200.0/24 the base is 192.168.200.0 and netmask is /24 converted to mask=> 255.255.255.0.
Use an CIDR calculator to get it. IT IS NOT YOUR RED IP, your red ip is RED_ADDRESS. CIDR and Netmask is the same on different notation: 192.168.200.0/24 = 192.168.200.0 NETMASK 255.255.255.0. Again use an CIDR calc. Title: Re: EFW SOFTWARE UTM 2.3 - Any way to setup network interfaces from the shell?
