SHOREWALL-MASQ(5)					     SHOREWALL-MASQ(5)

NAME
       masq - Shorewall Masquerade/SNAT definition file

SYNOPSIS
       /etc/shorewall/masq

DESCRIPTION
       Use this file to define dynamic NAT (Masquerading) and to define Source
       NAT (SNAT).

       Warning
       The entries in this file are order-sensitive. The first entry that
       matches a particular connection will be the one that is used.

       Warning
       If you have more than one ISP, adding entries to this file will *not*
       force connections to go out through a particular ISP. You must use
       PREROUTING entries in shorewall-tcrules[1](5) to do that.

       The columns in the file are as follows.

       INTERFACE -
       [+]interfacelist[:[digit]][:[address[,address]...[exclusion]]
	   Outgoing interfacelist. Prior to Shorewall 4.1.4, this must be a
	   single interface name; in 4.1.4 and later, this may be a
	   comma-separated list of interface names. This is usually your
	   internet interface. If ADD_SNAT_ALIASES=Yes in
	   shorewall.conf[2](5), you may add ":" and a digit to indicate that
	   you want the alias added with that name (e.g., eth0:0). This will
	   allow the alias to be displayed with ifconfig.  That is the only
	   use for the alias name; it may not appear in any other place in
	   your Shorewall configuration.

	   Each interface must match an entry in shorewall-interfaces[3](5).
	   Prior to Shorewall 4.1.4, this must be an exact match.
	   Shorewall-perl 4.1.4 and later allow loose matches to wildcard
	   entries in shorewall-interfaces[3](5). For example, ppp0 in this
	   file will match a shorewall-interfaces[3](5) entry that defines
	   ppp+.

	   The interface may be qualified by adding the character ":" followed
	   by a comma-separated list of destination host or subnet addresses
	   to indicate that you only want to change the source IP address for
	   packets being sent to those particular destinations. Exclusion is
	   allowed (see shorewall-exclusion[4](5)).

	   If you wish to inhibit the action of ADD_SNAT_ALIASES for this
	   entry then include the ":" but omit the digit:

		       eth0:
		       eth2::192.0.2.32/27
	   Normally Masq/SNAT rules are evaluated after those for one-to-one
	   NAT (defined in shorewall-nat[5](5)). If you want the rule to be
	   applied before one-to-one NAT rules, prefix the interface name with
	   "+":

		       +eth0
		       +eth0:192.0.2.32/27
		       +eth0:2
	   This feature should only be required if you need to insert rules in
	   this file that preempt entries in shorewall-nat[5](5).

       SOURCE (Formerly called SUBNET) -
       {interface[[:]exclusion]|address[,address][exclusion]}
	   Set of hosts that you wish to masquerade. You can specify this as
	   an address (net or host) or as an interface. If you give the name
	   of an interface, the interface must be up before you start the
	   firewall (Shorewall will use your main routing table to determine
	   the appropriate addresses to masquerade).

	   In order to exclude a address of the specified SOURCE, you may
	   append an exclusion ("!" and a comma-separated list of IP addresses
	   (host or net) that you wish to exclude (see
	   shorewall-exclusion[4](5))). Note that with Shorewall-perl, a colon
	   (":") must appear between an interface name and the exclusion;

	   Example (shorewall-shell): eth1!192.168.1.4,192.168.32.0/27

	   Example (shorewall-perl): eth1:!192.168.1.4,192.168.32.0/27

	   In that example traffic from eth1 would be masqueraded unless it
	   came from 192.168.1.4 or 196.168.32.0/27

       ADDRESS (Optional) -
       [-|NONAT|[SAME:[nodst:]][address-or-address-range[,address-or-address-range]...][:lowport-highport][:random]|detect|random]
	   If you specify an address here, SNAT will be used and this will be
	   the source address. If ADD_SNAT_ALIASES is set to Yes or yes in
	   shorewall.conf[2](5) then Shorewall will automatically add this
	   address to the INTERFACE named in the first column.

	   You may also specify a range of up to 256 IP addresses if you want
	   the SNAT address to be assigned from that range in a round-robin
	   fashion by connection. The range is specified by
	   first.ip.in.range-last.ip.in.range. Beginning with Shorewall 4.0.6,
	   you may follow the port range with :random in which case assignment
	   of ports from the list will be random.  random may also be
	   specified by itself in this column in which case random local port
	   assignments are made for the outgoing connections.

	   Example: 206.124.146.177-206.124.146.180

	   You may also use the special value "detect" which causes Shorewall
	   to determine the IP addresses configured on the interface named in
	   the INTERFACES column and substitute them in this column.

	   Finally, you may also specify a comma-separated list of ranges
	   and/or addresses in this column.

	   This column may not contain DNS Names.

	   Normally, Netfilter will attempt to retain the source port number.
	   You may cause netfilter to remap the source port by following an
	   address or range (if any) by ":" and a port range with the format
	   lowport-highport. If this is done, you must specify "tcp" or "udp"
	   in the PROTO column.

	   Examples:

		       192.0.2.4:5000-6000
		       :4000-5000
	   You can invoke the SAME target rather than the SNAT target by
	   prefixing the column contents with SAME:.

	   SAME works like SNAT with the exception that the same local IP
	   address is assigned to each connection from a local address to a
	   given remote address.

	   If the nodst: option is included, then the same source address is
	   used for a given internal system regardless of which remote system
	   is involved..sp
	   Warning
	   Support for the SAME target is scheduled for removal from the Linux
	   kernel in 2008.

	   If you simply place NONAT in this column, no rewriting of the
	   source IP address or port number will be performed. This is useful
	   if you want particular traffic to be exempt from the entries that
	   follow in the file.

	   If you want to leave this column empty but you need to specify the
	   next column then place a hyphen ("-") here.

       PROTO (Optional) - {-|[!]protocol-name|[!]protocol-number}
	   If you wish to restrict this entry to a particular protocol then
	   enter the protocol name (from protocols(5)) or number here.

       PORT(S) (Optional) - [[!]port-name-or-number[,port-name-or-number]...]
	   If the PROTO column specifies TCP (protocol 6) or UDP (protocol 17)
	   then you may list one or more port numbers (or names from
	   services(5)) separated by commas or you may list a single port
	   range (lowport:highport).

	   Where a comma-separated list is given, your kernel and iptables
	   must have multiport match support and a maximum of 15 ports may be
	   listed.

       IPSEC (Optional) - [option[,option]...]
	   If you specify a value other than "-" in this column, you must be
	   running kernel 2.6 and your kernel and iptables must include policy
	   match support.

	   Comma-separated list of options from the following. Only packets
	   that will be encrypted via an SA that matches these options will
	   have their source address changed.

	   reqid=number
	       where number is specified using setkey(8) using the
	       ´unique:number option for the SPD level.

	   spi=<number>
	       where number is the SPI of the SA used to encrypt/decrypt
	       packets.

	   proto=ah|esp|ipcomp
	       IPSEC Encapsulation Protocol

	   mss=number
	       sets the MSS field in TCP packets

	   mode=transport|tunnel
	       IPSEC mode

	   tunnel-src=address[/mask]
	       only available with mode=tunnel

	   tunnel-dst=address[/mask]
	       only available with mode=tunnel

	   strict
	       Means that packets must match all rules.

	   next
	       Separates rules; can only be used with strict

       MARK - [!]value[/mask][:C]
	   Defines a test on the existing packet or connection mark. The rule
	   will match only if the test returns true.

	   If you don´t want to define a test but need to specify anything in
	   the following columns, place a "-" in this field.

	   !
	       Inverts the test (not equal)

	   value
	       Value of the packet or connection mark.

	   mask
	       A mask to be applied to the mark before testing.

	   :C
	       Designates a connection mark. If omitted, the packet mark´s
	       value is tested. This option is only supported by
	       Shorewall-perl.

EXAMPLES
       Example 1:
	   You have a simple masquerading setup where eth0 connects to a DSL
	   or cable modem and eth1 connects to your local network with subnet
	   192.168.0.0/24.

	   Your entry in the file can be either:

		       #INTERFACE   SOURCE
		       eth0	    eth1
	   or

		       #INTERFACE   SOURCE
		       eth0    192.168.0.0/24

       Example 2:
	   You add a router to your local network to connect subnet
	   192.168.1.0/24 which you also want to masquerade. You then add a
	   second entry for eth0 to this file:

		       #INTERFACE   SOURCE
		       eth0	    192.168.1.0/24

       Example 3:
	   You have an IPSEC tunnel through ipsec0 and you want to masquerade
	   packets coming from 192.168.1.0/24 but only if these packets are
	   destined for hosts in 10.1.1.0/24:

		       #INTERFACE	       SOURCE
		       ipsec0:10.1.1.0/24      196.168.1.0/24

       Example 4:
	   You want all outgoing traffic from 192.168.1.0/24 through eth0 to
	   use source address 206.124.146.176 which is NOT the primary address
	   of eth0. You want 206.124.146.176 to be added to eth0 with name
	   eth0:0.

		       #INTERFACE	       SOURCE	       ADDRESS
		       eth0:0		       192.168.1.0/24  206.124.146.176

       Example 5:
	   You want all outgoing SMTP traffic entering the firewall on eth1 to
	   be sent from eth0 with source IP address 206.124.146.177. You want
	   all other outgoing traffic from eth1 to be sent from eth0 with
	   source IP address 206.124.146.176.

		       #INTERFACE   SOURCE  ADDRESS	    PROTO   PORT(S)
		       eth0	    eth1    206.124.146.177 tcp	    smtp
		       eth0	    eth1    206.124.146.176

	   Warning
	   The order of the above two rules is significant!
