proxyndp - Shorewall6 Proxy NDP file
Contents
Description
This file was added in Shorewall 4.4.16 and is used to define Proxy NDP. There is one entry in this file
for each IPv6 address to be proxied.
The columns in the file are as follows.
ADDRESS - address
IPv6 Address.
INTERFACE - interface (Optional)
Local interface where system with the ip address in ADDRESS is connected. Only required when the
HAVEROUTE column is left empty or is set to no or No.
EXTERNAL - interface
External Interface to be used to access this system from the Internet.
HAVEROUTE - [-|Yes|No]
If there is already a route from the firewall to the host whose address is given, enter Yes or yes in
this column. Otherwise, enter no or No or leave the column empty and Shorewall will add the route for
you. If Shorewall6 adds the route, its persistence depends on the value of thePERSISTENT column
contains Yes; otherwise, shorewall6stop or shorewallclear6 will delete the route.
PERSISTENT - [-|Yes|No]
If HAVEROUTE is No or no, then the value of this column determines if the route added by Shorewall
persists after a shorewall6stop or a shorewall6clear. If this column contains Yes or yes then the
route persists; If the column is empty or contains No or no then the route is deleted by shorewall6stop or shorewall6clear.
Example
Example 1:
Host with IPv6 2001:470:b:227::44 is connected to interface eth1 and we want hosts attached via eth0
to be able to access it using that address.
#ADDRESS INTERFACE EXTERNAL
2001:470:b:227::44 eth1 eth0
