Title: Allow - Bittorrent Post by: Sanjevan on Wednesday 09 June 2010, 01:25:29 pm I am using endian firewall on my home network and I want to allow bittorrent traffic, but I am unable to get traffic to pass through even after allowing ports 10000-60000 in both my destination Nat to my workstation ip and incoming routed traffic with the same settings.
What am I doing wrong? I am pretty sure because of the question you already new this, but I am a new to this. Sanman Title: Re: Allow - Bittorrent Post by: arminf on Friday 11 June 2010, 02:58:18 am Hi Sanman
Firewall incomming routed traffic option Source <any> Destination your Bittorent client IP there put the Ports in Firewall outgoing traffic Source your Bittorent IP Destination RED there put your ports in Firewall Option "ALLOW" in both rules Delete SNORT rule p2p REBOOT your FW this works for me. Good luck! Title: Re: Allow - Bittorrent Post by: Sanjevan on Friday 11 June 2010, 10:44:15 pm I created the two rules and deleted the p2p snort rule. After the reboot I was still unable to download a torrent file.
Are there different ports for different bittorrent clients? I received a connection timeout error. Is there anything I am missing? Title: Re: Allow - Bittorrent Post by: arminf on Wednesday 16 June 2010, 02:48:05 am Ports for Bittorrent
6881-6889 tcp http://www.dessent.net/btfaq/#ports i uses 6881-6889 on the port forwarding from outside to my virtual machine inside to outside i just put 1024:65535 in.. i dont care as it is a vm and i have a cleanstate snapshot. nevertheless if you use the ranges on both rules it should work test by disabling intrusion prevention to see if this was the case. then we could dig deeper into snort. reboot the machine to the rules is really in place. cheers armin PS. if its a physical bittorent connect it to dmz and forward all ports in/out... make a clone before ;-) |
