+The GNU GPL Revisited
+Introduction
+
+
+Who is speaking to you?
+ an independent Free Software developer
+ who earns his living off Free Software since 1997
+ who is one of the authors of the Linux kernel firewall system called netfilter/iptables
+ who can claim to be the first to have enforced the GNU GPL in court

+Introduction
+
+Linux and Networking
+ Linux is a true child of the Internet
+ Early adopters: ISP's, Universities
+ Lots of work went into a highly scalable network stack
+ Not only for client/server, but also for routers
+ Features unheared of in other OS's
+

+Introduction
+
+Did you know, that a stock 2.6.x linux kernel can provide
+
+ a stateful packet filter ?
+ fully symmetric NA(P)T ?
+ policy routing ?
+ QoS / traffic shaping ?
+ IPv6 firewalling ?
+ packet filtering, NA(P)T on a bridge ?
+ layer 2 (mac) address translation ?
+ packet forwarding rates of up to 2.1mpps ?
+

+Introduction
+
+Why did we need netfilter/iptables?
+Because ipchains...
+
+ has no infrastructure for passing packets to userspace
+ makes transparent proxying extremely difficult
+ has interface address dependent Packet filter rules
+ has Masquerading implemented as part of packet filtering
+ code is too complex and intermixed with core ipv4 stack
+ is neither modular nor extensible
+ only barely supports one special case of NAT (masquerading)
+ has only stateless packet filtering

+Netfilter Hooks
+
+ What is netfilter?
+
+ System of callback functions within network stack
+ Callback function to be called for every packet traversing certain point (hook) within network stack
+ Protocol independent framework
+ Hooks in layer 3 stacks (IPv4, IPv6, DECnet, ARP)
+ Multiple kernel modules can register with each of the hooks
+
+Traditional packet filtering, NAT, ... is implemented on top of this framework
+
+Can be used for other stuff interfacing with the core network stack, like DECnet routing daemon.

+Netfilter Hooks
+
+ Any kernel module may register a callback function at any of the hooks
+
+ The module has to return one of the following constants
+
+ NF_ACCEPT continue traversal as normal
+ NF_DROP drop the packet, do not continue
+ NF_STOLEN I've taken over the packet do not continue
+ NF_QUEUE enqueue packet to userspace
+ NF_REPEAT call this hook again

+IP tables
+
+ Packet selection using IP tables
+
+ The kernel provides generic IP tables support
+
+ Each kernel module may create it's own IP table
+
+ The four major parts of the firewalling subsystem are implemented using IP tables
+ Packet filtering table 'filter'
+ NAT table 'nat'
+ Packet mangling table 'mangle'
+ The 'raw' table for conntrack exemptions
+
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

+IP Tables
+
+ Managing chains and tables
+
+ An IP table consists out of multiple chains
+ A chain consists out of a list of rules
+ Every single rule in a chain consists out of
+ match[es] (rule executed if all matches true)
+ target (what to do if the rule is matched)
+
+%size 4
+matches and targets can either be builtin or implemented as kernel modules
+
+%size 5
+ The userspace tool iptables is used to control IP tables
+ handles all different kinds of IP tables
+ supports a plugin/shlib interface for target/match specific options
+
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%page
+netfilter/iptables tutorial
+IP Tables
+
+Basic iptables commands
+
+ To build a complete iptables command, we must specify
+ which table to work with
+ which chain in this table to use
+ an operation (insert, add, delete, modify)
+ one or more matches (optional)
+ a target
+
+The syntax is
+%font "typewriter"
+%size 3
+iptables -t table -Operation chain -j target match(es)
+%font "standard"
+%size 5
+
+Example:
+%font "typewriter"
+%size 3
+iptables -t filter -A INPUT -j ACCEPT -p tcp --dport smtp
+%font "standard"
+%size 5
+
+%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
+%page
+netfilter/iptables tutorial
+IP Tables
+
+Matches
+ Basic matches
+ -p protocol (tcp/udp/icmp/...)
+ -s source address (ip/mask)
+ -d destination address (ip/mask)
+ -i incoming interface
+ -o outgoing interface
+
+ Match extensions (examples)
+ tcp/udp TCP/udp source/destination port
+ icmp ICMP code/type
+ ah/esp AH/ESP SPID match
+ mac source MAC address
+ mark nfmark
+ length match on length of packet
+ limit rate limiting (n packets per timeframe)
+ owner owner uid of the socket sending the packet
+ tos TOS field of IP header
+ ttl TTL field of IP header
+
+

+IP Tables
+
+Targets
+ very dependent on the particular table.
+
+ Table specific targets will be discussed later
+
+ Generic Targets, always available
+ ACCEPT accept packet within chain
+ DROP silently drop packet
+ QUEUE enqueue packet to userspace
+ LOG log packet via syslog
+ ULOG log packet via ulogd
+ RETURN return to previous (calling) chain
+ foobar jump to user defined chain
+
+

+Packet Filtering
+
+Overview
+
+ Implemented as 'filter' table
+ Registers with three netfilter hooks
+
+ NF_IP_LOCAL_IN (packets destined for the local host)
+ NF_IP_FORWARD (packets forwarded by local host)
+ NF_IP_LOCAL_OUT (packets from the local host)
+
+Each of the three hooks has attached one chain (INPUT, FORWARD, OUTPUT)
+
+Every packet passes exactly one of the three chains. Note that this is very different compared to the old 2.2.x ipchains behaviour.
+
+

+Packet Filtering
+
+Targets available within 'filter' table
+
+ Builtin Targets to be used in filter table
+ ACCEPT accept the packet
+ DROP silently drop the packet
+ QUEUE enqueue packet to userspace
+ RETURN return to previous (calling) chain
+ foobar user defined chain
+
+ Targets implemented as loadable modules
+ REJECT drop the packet but inform sender
+ MIRROR change source/destination IP and resend
+ LOG log via syslog
+ ULOG log via userspace
+

+Connection Tracking Subsystem
+
+ Connection tracking...
+
+ implemented seperately from NAT
+ enables stateful filtering
+ implementation
+ hooks into NF_IP_PRE_ROUTING to track packets
+ hooks into NF_IP_POST_ROUTING and NF_IP_LOCAL_IN to see if packet passed filtering rules
+ protocol modules (currently TCP/UDP/ICMP)
+ application helpers currently (FTP,IRC,H.323,talk,SNMP)
+ divides packets in the following four categories
+ NEW - would establish new connection
+ ESTABLISHED - part of already established connection
+ RELATED - is related to established connection
+ INVALID - (multicast, errors...)
+ does _NOT_ filter packets itself
+ can be utilized by iptables using the 'state' match
+ is used by NAT Subsystem
+

+Network Address Translation
+
+ Network Address Translation
+
+ Previous Linux Kernels only implemented one special case of NAT: Masquerading
+ Linux 2.4.x / 2.6.x can do any kind of NAT.
+ NAT subsystem implemented on top of netfilter, iptables and conntrack
+ Following targets available within 'nat' Table
+ SNAT changes the packet's source whille passing NF_IP_POST_ROUTING
+ DNAT changes the packet's destination while passing NF_IP_PRE_ROUTING
+ MASQUERADE is a special case of SNAT
+ REDIRECT is a special case of DNAT
+

+Packet Mangling
+
+ Purpose of mangle table
+ packet manipulation except address manipulation
+
+ Integration with netfilter
+ 'mangle' table hooks in all five netfilter hooks
+ priority: after conntrack
+
+ Targets specific to the 'mangle' table:
+ DSCP - manipulate DSCP field
+ IPV4OPTSSTRIP - strip IPv4 options
+ MARK - change the nfmark field of the skb
+ TCPMSS - set TCP MSS option
+ TOS - manipulate the TOS bits
+ TTL - set / increase / decrease TTL field
+
+Simple example:
+%font "typewriter"
+%size 3
+iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -j MARK --set-mark 10 -p tcp --dport 80

+The raw Table
+
+ Purpose of mangle table
+ to allow for filtering rules _before_ conntrack
+ Targets specific to the 'raw' table:
+ NOTRACK - Don't do connection tracking
+
+ The table can also be useful for flood protection rules that happen before traversing the (computational) expensive connection tracking subsystem.

+
+ Firewalling on a Bridge (ebtables + iptables)
+ totally transparent to layer 2 and above
+ no attack vector since firewall has no IP address
+ even possible to do NAT on the bridge
+ or even NAT of MAC addresses
+
+ ipset - Faster matching
+ iptables are a linear list of rules
+ ipset represents a 'group' scheme
+ Implements different data types for different applications
+ hash table (for random addresses)
+ bitmask (for let's say a /24 network)

+ ipv6 packet filtering
+ ip6tables almost identical to iptables
+ no connection tracking in mainline yet, but patches exist
+ ip6_tables
+ initial copy+paste 'port' by USAGI
+ was not accepted because of code duplication
+ nf_conntrack
+ generalized connection tracking, supports ipv4 and ipv6
+ mutually exclusive with ip_conntrack
+ as of now, no ipv4 nat on to of nf_conntrack

+Linux Policy Routing
+
+ Policy Routing (iproute2)
+ Allows routing decisions on arbitrary information
+ Provides up to 255 different routing tables within one system
+ By combining via nfmark with iptables, any matches of the packet filter can be used for the routing decision
+ Very useful in complex setups with mutiple links (e.g. multiple DSL uplinks with dynamic addresses, asymmetric routing, ...)

+Linux Traffic Shaping
+
+ Traffic Control (tc)
+ Framework for lots of algorithms like RED,SFQ,TBF,CBQ,CSZ,GRED,HTB
+ Very granular control, especially for very low bandwidth links
+ Present since Linux 2.2.x but still not used widely
+ Lack of documentation, but situation is improving (www.lartc.org)
