+.. note:: **Documentation under development**
+
+********
+Overview
+********
+
+In this section there's useful information of all firewall configuration that
+can be done regarding bridge, and appropiate op-mode commands.
+Configuration commands covered in this section:
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall bridge ...
+
+From main structure defined in :doc:`Firewall Overview</configuration/firewall/index>`
+in this section you can find detailed information only for the next part
+of the general structure:

+
+ - set firewall
+ * bridge
+ - forward
+ + filter
+ - name
+ + custom_name
+
+Traffic which is received by the router on an interface which is member of a
+bridge is processed on the **Bridge Layer**. A simplified packet flow diagram
+for this layer is shown next:
+
+.. figure:: /_static/images/firewall-bridge-packet-flow.png
+
+For traffic that needs to be forwared internally by the bridge, base chain is
+is **forward**, and it's base command for filtering is ``set firewall bridge
+forward filter ...``

+
+In this section there's useful information of all firewall configuration that
+can be done regarding flowtables
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall flowtables ...
+
+From main structure defined in :doc:`Firewall Overview</configuration/firewall/index>`
+in this section you can find detailed information only for the next part
+of the general structure:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ - set firewall
+ * flowtable
+ - custom_flow_table
+ + ...
+
+
+Flowtables allows you to define a fastpath through the flowtable datapath.
+The flowtable supports for the layer 3 IPv4 and IPv6 and the layer 4 TCP
+and UDP protocols.
+
+.. figure:: /_static/images/firewall-flowtable-packet-flow.png
+
+Once the first packet of the flow successfully goes through the IP forwarding
+path (black circles path), from the second packet on, you might decide to
+offload the flow to the flowtable through your ruleset. The flowtable
+infrastructure provides a rule action that allows you to specify when to add
+a flow to the flowtable (On forward filtering, red circle number 6)
+
+A packet that finds a matching entry in the flowtable (flowtable hit) is
+transmitted to the output netdevice, hence, packets bypass the classic IP
+forwarding path and uses the **Fast Path** (orange circles path). The visible
+effect is that you do not see these packets from any of the Netfilter
+hooks coming after ingress. In case that there is no matching entry in the
+flowtable (flowtable miss), the packet follows the classic IP forwarding path.

-Firewall Configuration
-######################
-
-********
-Overview
-********
-
-VyOS makes use of Linux `netfilter <https://netfilter.org/>`_ for packet
-filtering.
-
-The firewall supports the creation of groups for addresses, domains,
-interfaces, mac-addresses, networks and port groups. This groups can be used
-later in firewall ruleset as desired.
-
-Main structure is shown next:
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- - set firewall
- * bridge
- - forward
- + filter
- * flowtable
- - custom_flow_table
- + ...
- * global-options
- + all-ping
- + broadcast-ping
- + ...
- * group
- - address-group
- - ipv6-address-group
- - network-group
- - ipv6-network-group
- - interface-group
- - mac-group
- - port-group
- - domain-group
- * ipv4
- - forward
- + filter
- - input
- + filter
- - output
- + filter
- - name
- + custom_name
- * ipv6
- - forward
- + filter
- - input
- + filter
- - output
- + filter
- - ipv6-name
- + custom_name
- * zone
- - custom_zone_name
- + ...
-
-Where, main key words and configuration paths that needs to be understood:
-
- * For firewall filtering, configuration should be done in ``set firewall
- [ipv4 | ipv6] ...``
-
- * For transit traffic, which is received by the router and forwarded,
- base chain is **forward filter**: ``set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6]
- forward filter ...``
-
- * For traffic originated by the router, base chain is **output filter**:
- ``set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] output filter ...``
-
- * For traffic towards the router itself, base chain is **input filter**:
- ``set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] input filter ...``
-
-.. note:: **Important note about default-actions:**
- If default action for any chain is not defined, then the default
- action is set to **accept** for that chain. Only for custom chains,
- the default action is set to **drop**.
-
-Custom firewall chains can be created, with commands
-``set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] name <name> ...``. In order to use
-such custom chain, a rule with **action jump**, and the appropiate **target**
-should be defined in a base chain.
-
-**************
-Global Options
-**************
-
-Some firewall settings are global and have an affect on the whole system.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options all-ping [enable | disable]
-
- By default, when VyOS receives an ICMP echo request packet destined for
- itself, it will answer with an ICMP echo reply, unless you avoid it
- through its firewall.
-
- With the firewall you can set rules to accept, drop or reject ICMP in,
- out or local traffic. You can also use the general **firewall all-ping**
- command. This command affects only to LOCAL (packets destined for your
- VyOS system), not to IN or OUT traffic.
-
- .. note:: **firewall global-options all-ping** affects only to LOCAL
- and it always behaves in the most restrictive way
-
- .. code-block:: none
-
- set firewall global-options all-ping enable
-
- When the command above is set, VyOS will answer every ICMP echo request
- addressed to itself, but that will only happen if no other rule is
- applied dropping or rejecting local echo requests. In case of conflict,
- VyOS will not answer ICMP echo requests.
-
- .. code-block:: none
-
- set firewall global-options all-ping disable
-
- When the command above is set, VyOS will answer no ICMP echo request
- addressed to itself at all, no matter where it comes from or whether
- more specific rules are being applied to accept them.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options broadcast-ping [enable | disable]
-
- This setting enable or disable the response of icmp broadcast
- messages. The following system parameter will be altered:
-
- * ``net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts``
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options ip-src-route [enable | disable]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options ipv6-src-route [enable | disable]
-
- This setting handle if VyOS accept packets with a source route
- option. The following system parameter will be altered:
-
- * ``net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_source_route``
- * ``net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_source_route``
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options receive-redirects [enable | disable]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options ipv6-receive-redirects
- [enable | disable]
-
- enable or disable of ICMPv4 or ICMPv6 redirect messages accepted
- by VyOS. The following system parameter will be altered:
-
- * ``net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_redirects``
- * ``net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_redirects``
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options send-redirects [enable | disable]
-
- enable or disable ICMPv4 redirect messages send by VyOS
- The following system parameter will be altered:
-
- * ``net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects``
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options log-martians [enable | disable]
-
- enable or disable the logging of martian IPv4 packets.
- The following system parameter will be altered:
-
- * ``net.ipv4.conf.all.log_martians``
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options source-validation
- [strict | loose | disable]
-
- Set the IPv4 source validation mode.
- The following system parameter will be altered:
-
- * ``net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter``
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options syn-cookies [enable | disable]
-
- Enable or Disable if VyOS use IPv4 TCP SYN Cookies.
- The following system parameter will be altered:
-
- * ``net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies``
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options twa-hazards-protection
- [enable | disable]
-
- Enable or Disable VyOS to be :rfc:`1337` conform.
- The following system parameter will be altered:
-
- * ``net.ipv4.tcp_rfc1337``
-
-******
-Groups
-******
-
-Firewall groups represent collections of IP addresses, networks, ports,
-mac addresses, domains or interfaces. Once created, a group can be referenced
-by firewall, nat and policy route rules as either a source or destination
-matcher, and as inbpund/outbound in the case of interface group.
-
-Address Groups
-==============
-
-In an **address group** a single IP address or IP address ranges are
-defined.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group address-group <name> address [address |
- address range]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-address-group <name> address <address>
-
- Define a IPv4 or a IPv6 address group
-
- .. code-block:: none
-
- set firewall group address-group ADR-INSIDE-v4 address 192.168.0.1
- set firewall group address-group ADR-INSIDE-v4 address 10.0.0.1-10.0.0.8
- set firewall group ipv6-address-group ADR-INSIDE-v6 address 2001:db8::1
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group address-group <name> description <text>
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-address-group <name> description <text>
-
- Provide a IPv4 or IPv6 address group description
-
-Network Groups
-==============
-
-While **network groups** accept IP networks in CIDR notation, specific
-IP addresses can be added as a 32-bit prefix. If you foresee the need
-to add a mix of addresses and networks, the network group is
-recommended.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group network-group <name> network <CIDR>
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-network-group <name> network <CIDR>
-
- Define a IPv4 or IPv6 Network group.
-
- .. code-block:: none
-
- set firewall group network-group NET-INSIDE-v4 network 192.168.0.0/24
- set firewall group network-group NET-INSIDE-v4 network 192.168.1.0/24
- set firewall group ipv6-network-group NET-INSIDE-v6 network 2001:db8::/64
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group network-group <name> description <text>
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-network-group <name> description <text>
-
- Provide an IPv4 or IPv6 network group description.
-
-Interface Groups
-================
-
-An **interface group** represents a collection of interfaces.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group interface-group <name> interface <text>
-
- Define an interface group. Wildcard are accepted too.
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- set firewall group interface-group LAN interface bond1001
- set firewall group interface-group LAN interface eth3*
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group interface-group <name> description <text>
-
- Provide an interface group description
-
-Port Groups
-===========
-
-A **port group** represents only port numbers, not the protocol. Port
-groups can be referenced for either TCP or UDP. It is recommended that
-TCP and UDP groups are created separately to avoid accidentally
-filtering unnecessary ports. Ranges of ports can be specified by using
-`-`.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group port-group <name> port
- [portname | portnumber | startport-endport]
-
- Define a port group. A port name can be any name defined in
- /etc/services. e.g.: http
-
- .. code-block:: none
-
- set firewall group port-group PORT-TCP-SERVER1 port http
- set firewall group port-group PORT-TCP-SERVER1 port 443
- set firewall group port-group PORT-TCP-SERVER1 port 5000-5010
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group port-group <name> description <text>
-
- Provide a port group description.
-
-MAC Groups
-==========
-
-A **mac group** represents a collection of mac addresses.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group mac-group <name> mac-address <mac-address>
-
- Define a mac group.

-
- Provide a mac group description.
-
-Domain Groups
-=============
-
-A **domain group** represents a collection of domains.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group domain-group <name> address <domain>
-
- Define a domain group.
-
-.. code-block:: none
-
- set firewall group domain-group DOM address example.com
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group domain-group <name> description <text>
-
- Provide a domain group description.
-
-******************************
-Firewall - IPv4 and IPv6 Rules
-******************************
-
-For firewall filtering, firewall rules needs to be created. Each rule is
-numbered, has an action to apply if the rule is matched, and the ability
-to specify multiple criteria matchers. Data packets go through the rules
-from 1 - 999999, so order is crucial. At the first match the action of the
-rule will be executed.
-
-Actions
-=======
-
-If a rule is defined, then an action must be defined for it. This tells the
-firewall what to do if all criteria matchers defined for such rule do match.
-
-The action can be :
-
- * ``accept``: accept the packet.
-
- * ``continue``: continue parsing next rule.
-
- * ``drop``: drop the packet.
-
- * ``reject``: reject the packet.
-
- * ``jump``: jump to another custom chain.
-
- * ``return``: Return from the current chain and continue at the next rule
- of the last chain.
-
- * ``queue``: Enqueue packet to userspace.
-
- * ``synproxy``: synproxy the packet.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] forward filter rule <1-999999> action
- [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return | synproxy]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] input filter rule <1-999999> action
- [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return | synproxy]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] output filter rule <1-999999> action
- [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] name <name> rule <1-999999> action
- [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
-
- This required setting defines the action of the current rule. If action is
- set to jump, then jump-target is also needed.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] forward filter rule <1-999999>
- jump-target <text>
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] input filter rule <1-999999>
- jump-target <text>
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] output filter rule <1-999999>
- jump-target <text>
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] name <name> rule <1-999999>
- jump-target <text>
-
- To be used only when action is set to jump. Use this command to specify
- jump target.
-
-Also, **default-action** is an action that takes place whenever a packet does
-not match any rule in it's chain. For base chains, possible options for
-**default-action** are **accept** or **drop**.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] forward filter default-action
- [accept | drop]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] input filter default-action
- [accept | drop]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] output filter default-action
- [accept | drop]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] name <name> default-action
- [accept | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
-
- This set the default action of the rule-set if no rule matched a packet
- criteria. If defacult-action is set to ``jump``, then
- ``default-jump-target`` is also needed. Note that for base chains, default
- action can only be set to ``accept`` or ``drop``, while on custom chain,
- more actions are available.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] name <name> default-jump-target <text>
-
- To be used only when ``defult-action`` is set to ``jump``. Use this
- command to specify jump target for default rule.
-
-.. note:: **Important note about default-actions:**
- If default action for any chain is not defined, then the default
- action is set to **drop** for that chain.
-
-
-Firewall Logs
-=============
-
-Logging can be enable for every single firewall rule. If enabled, other
-log options can be defined.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] forward filter rule <1-999999> log
- [disable | enable]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] input filter rule <1-999999> log
- [disable | enable]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] output filter rule <1-999999> log
- [disable | enable]
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] name <name> rule <1-999999> log
- [disable | enable]
-
- Enable or disable logging for the matched packet.
-
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] forward filter enable-default-log
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] input filter enable-default-log
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] output filter enable-default-log
-.. cfgcmd:: set firewall [ipv4 | ipv6] name <name> enable-default-log
-
- Use this command to enable the logging of the default action on
- the specified chain.

- An arbitrary netmask can be applied to mask addresses to only match against
- a specific portion. This is particularly useful with IPv6 as rules will
- remain valid if the IPv6 prefix changes and the host
- portion of systems IPv6 address is static (for example, with SLAAC or
- `tokenised IPv6 addresses
- <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/id/draft-chown-6man-tokenised-ipv6-identifiers-02.txt>`_)
-
- This functions for both individual addresses and address groups.

+Global Options Firewall Configuration
+#####################################
+
+********
+Overview
+********
+
+Some firewall settings are global and have an affect on the whole system.
+In this section there's useful information about these global-options that can
+be configured using vyos cli.
+
+Configuration commands covered in this section:
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options ...
+
+*************
+Configuration
+*************
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options all-ping [enable | disable]
+
+ By default, when VyOS receives an ICMP echo request packet destined for
+ itself, it will answer with an ICMP echo reply, unless you avoid it
+ through its firewall.
+
+ With the firewall you can set rules to accept, drop or reject ICMP in,
+ out or local traffic. You can also use the general **firewall all-ping**
+ command. This command affects only to LOCAL (packets destined for your
+ VyOS system), not to IN or OUT traffic.
+
+ .. note:: **firewall global-options all-ping** affects only to LOCAL
+ and it always behaves in the most restrictive way
+
+ .. code-block:: none
+
+ set firewall global-options all-ping enable
+
+ When the command above is set, VyOS will answer every ICMP echo request
+ addressed to itself, but that will only happen if no other rule is
+ applied dropping or rejecting local echo requests. In case of conflict,
+ VyOS will not answer ICMP echo requests.
+
+ .. code-block:: none
+
+ set firewall global-options all-ping disable
+
+ When the command above is set, VyOS will answer no ICMP echo request
+ addressed to itself at all, no matter where it comes from or whether
+ more specific rules are being applied to accept them.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options broadcast-ping [enable | disable]
+
+ This setting enable or disable the response of icmp broadcast
+ messages. The following system parameter will be altered:
+
+ * ``net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_broadcasts``
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options ip-src-route [enable | disable]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options ipv6-src-route [enable | disable]
+
+ This setting handle if VyOS accept packets with a source route
+ option. The following system parameter will be altered:
+
+ * ``net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_source_route``
+ * ``net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_source_route``
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options receive-redirects [enable | disable]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options ipv6-receive-redirects
+ [enable | disable]
+
+ enable or disable of ICMPv4 or ICMPv6 redirect messages accepted
+ by VyOS. The following system parameter will be altered:
+
+ * ``net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_redirects``
+ * ``net.ipv6.conf.all.accept_redirects``
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options send-redirects [enable | disable]
+
+ enable or disable ICMPv4 redirect messages send by VyOS
+ The following system parameter will be altered:
+
+ * ``net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects``
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options log-martians [enable | disable]
+
+ enable or disable the logging of martian IPv4 packets.
+ The following system parameter will be altered:
+
+ * ``net.ipv4.conf.all.log_martians``
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options source-validation
+ [strict | loose | disable]
+
+ Set the IPv4 source validation mode.
+ The following system parameter will be altered:
+
+ * ``net.ipv4.conf.all.rp_filter``
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options syn-cookies [enable | disable]
+
+ Enable or Disable if VyOS use IPv4 TCP SYN Cookies.
+ The following system parameter will be altered:
+
+ * ``net.ipv4.tcp_syncookies``
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall global-options twa-hazards-protection
+ [enable | disable]
+
+ Enable or Disable VyOS to be :rfc:`1337` conform.
+ The following system parameter will be altered:
+

+Firewall groups
+###############
+
+*************
+Configuration
+*************
+
+Firewall groups represent collections of IP addresses, networks, ports,
+mac addresses, domains or interfaces. Once created, a group can be referenced
+by firewall, nat and policy route rules as either a source or destination
+matcher, and/or as inbound/outbound in the case of interface group.
+
+Address Groups
+==============
+
+In an **address group** a single IP address or IP address ranges are
+defined.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group address-group <name> address [address |
+ address range]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-address-group <name> address <address>

+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group address-group <name> description <text>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-address-group <name> description <text>
+
+ Provide a IPv4 or IPv6 address group description
+
+Network Groups
+==============
+
+While **network groups** accept IP networks in CIDR notation, specific
+IP addresses can be added as a 32-bit prefix. If you foresee the need
+to add a mix of addresses and networks, the network group is
+recommended.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group network-group <name> network <CIDR>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-network-group <name> network <CIDR>
+
+ Define a IPv4 or IPv6 Network group.

+================
+
+An **interface group** represents a collection of interfaces.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group interface-group <name> interface <text>
+
+ Define an interface group. Wildcard are accepted too.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ set firewall group interface-group LAN interface bond1001
+ set firewall group interface-group LAN interface eth3*
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group interface-group <name> description <text>
+
+ Provide an interface group description
+
+Port Groups
+===========
+
+A **port group** represents only port numbers, not the protocol. Port
+groups can be referenced for either TCP or UDP. It is recommended that
+TCP and UDP groups are created separately to avoid accidentally
+filtering unnecessary ports. Ranges of ports can be specified by using
+`-`.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group port-group <name> port
+ [portname | portnumber | startport-endport]
+
+ Define a port group. A port name can be any name defined in
+ /etc/services. e.g.: http
+
+ .. code-block:: none
+
+ set firewall group port-group PORT-TCP-SERVER1 port http
+ set firewall group port-group PORT-TCP-SERVER1 port 443
+ set firewall group port-group PORT-TCP-SERVER1 port 5000-5010
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group port-group <name> description <text>
+
+ Provide a port group description.
+
+MAC Groups
+==========
+
+A **mac group** represents a collection of mac addresses.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group mac-group <name> mac-address <mac-address>
+
+ Define a mac group.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ set firewall group mac-group MAC-G01 mac-address 88:a4:c2:15:b6:4f
+ set firewall group mac-group MAC-G01 mac-address 4c:d5:77:c0:19:81
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group mac-group <name> description <text>
+
+ Provide a mac group description.
+
+Domain Groups
+=============
+
+A **domain group** represents a collection of domains.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group domain-group <name> address <domain>
+
+ Define a domain group.
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ set firewall group domain-group DOM address example.com
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group domain-group <name> description <text>
+
+ Provide a domain group description.
+
+********
+Examples
+********
+
+As said before, once firewall groups are created, they can be referenced
+either in firewall, nat, nat66 and/or policy-route rules.
+
+Here is an example were multiple groups are created:
+
+ .. code-block:: none
+
+ set firewall group address-group SERVERS address 198.51.100.101
+ set firewall group address-group SERVERS address 198.51.100.102
+ set firewall group network-group TRUSTEDv4 network 192.0.2.0/30
+ set firewall group network-group TRUSTEDv4 network 203.0.113.128/25
+ set firewall group ipv6-network-group TRUSTEDv6 network 2001:db8::/64
+ set firewall group interface-group LAN interface eth2.2001
+ set firewall group interface-group LAN interface bon0
+ set firewall group port-group PORT-SERVERS port http
+ set firewall group port-group PORT-SERVERS port 443
+ set firewall group port-group PORT-SERVERS port 5000-5010
+
+And next, some configuration example where groups are used:
+
+ .. code-block:: none
+
+ set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 10 action accept
+ set firewall ipv4 input filter rule 10 inbound-interface group !LAN
+ set firewall ipv4 forward filter rule 20 action accept
+ set firewall ipv4 forward filter rule 20 source group network-group TRUSTEDv4
+ set firewall ipv6 input filter rule 10 action accept
+ set firewall ipv6 input filter rule 10 source-group network-group TRUSTEDv6
+ set nat destination rule 101 inbound-interface group LAN
+ set nat destination rule 101 destination group address-group SERVERS
+ set nat destination rule 101 protocol tcp
+ set nat destination rule 101 destination group port-group PORT-SERVERS
+ set nat destination rule 101 translation address 203.0.113.250
+ set policy route PBR rule 201 destination group port-group PORT-SERVERS
+ set policy route PBR rule 201 protocol tcp
+ set policy route PBR rule 201 set table 15

+With VyOS being based on top of Linux and its kernel, the Netfilter project

+A simplified traffic flow, based on Netfilter packet flow, is shown next, in
+order to have a full view and understanding of how packets are processed, and
+what possible paths can take.
-To configure VyOS with the new :doc:`firewall configuration </configuration/firewall/general>`
+.. figure:: /_static/images/firewall-gral-packet-flow.png
-The only stages VyOS will process as part of the firewall configuration is the
-`forward` (F4 stage), `input` (L4 stage), and `output` (L5 stage). All the other
-stages and steps are for reference and cant be manipulated through VyOS.
+Main notes regarding this packet flow and terminology used in VyOS firewall:
+
+ * **Bridge Port?**: choose appropiate path based on if interface were the
+ packet was received is part of a bridge, or not.
+
+If interface were the packet was received isn't part of a bridge, then packet
+is processed at the **IP Layer**:
+
+ * **Prerouting**: several actions can be done in this stage, and currently
+ these actions are defined in different parts in vyos configuration. Order
+ is important, and all these actions are performed before any actions
+ define under ``firewall`` section. Relevant configuration that acts in
+ this stage are:
+
+ * **Conntrack Ignore**: rules defined under ``set system conntrack ignore
+ [ipv4 | ipv6] ...``.
+
+ * **Policy Route**: rules defined under ``set policy [route | route6]
+ ...``.
+
+ * **Destination NAT**: rules defined under ``set [nat | nat66]
+ destination...``.
+
+ * **Destination is the router?**: choose appropiate path based on
+ destination IP address. Transit forward continunes to **forward**,
+ while traffic that destination IP address is configured on the router
+ continues to **input**.
+
+ * **Input**: stage where traffic destinated to the router itself can be
+ filtered and controlled. This is where all rules for securing the router
+ should take place. This includes ipv4 and ipv6 filtering rules, defined
+ in:
+
+ * ``set firewall ipv4 input filter ...``.
+
+ * ``set firewall ipv6 input filter ...``.
+
+ * **Forward**: stage where transit traffic can be filtered and controlled.
+ This includes ipv4 and ipv6 filtering rules, defined in:
+
+ * ``set firewall ipv4 forward filter ...``.
+
+ * ``set firewall ipv6 forward filter ...``.
+
+ * **Output**: stage where traffic that is originated by the router itself
+ can be filtered and controlled. Bare in mind that this traffic can be a
+ new connection originted by a internal process running on VyOS router,
+ such as NTP, or can be a response to traffic received externaly through
+ **inputt** (for example response to an ssh login attempt to the router).
+ This includes ipv4 and ipv6 filtering rules, defined in:
+
+ * ``set firewall ipv4 input filter ...``.
+
+ * ``set firewall ipv6 output filter ...``.
+
+ * **Postrouting**: as in **Prerouting**, several actions defined in
+ different parts of VyOS configuration are performed in this
+ stage. This includes:
+
+ * **Source NAT**: rules defined under ``set [nat | nat66]
+ destination...``.
+
+If interface were the packet was received is part of a bridge, then packet
+is processed at the **Bridge Layer**, which contains a ver basic setup where
+for bridge filtering:
+
+ * **Forward (Bridge)**: stage where traffic that is trasspasing through the
+ bridge is filtered and controlled:
+
+ * ``set firewall bridge forward filter ...``.

+IPv4 Firewall Configuration
+###########################
+
+********
+Overview
+********
+
+In this section there's useful information of all firewall configuration that
+can be done regarding IPv4, and appropiate op-mode commands.
+Configuration commands covered in this section:
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 ...
+
+From main structure defined in :doc:`Firewall Overview</configuration/firewall/index>`
+in this section you can find detailed information only for the next part
+of the general structure:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ - set firewall
+ * ipv4
+ - forward
+ + filter
+ - input
+ + filter
+ - output
+ + filter
+ - name
+ + custom_name
+
+For transit traffic, which is received by the router and forwarded, base chain
+is **forward**. A simplified packet flow diagram for transit traffic is shown
+next:
+
+.. figure:: /_static/images/firewall-fwd-packet-flow.png
+
+Where firewall base chain to configure firewall filtering rules for transit
+traffic is ``set firewall ipv4 forward filter ...``, which happens in stage 5,
+highlightened with red color.
+
+For traffic towards the router itself, base chain is **input**, while traffic
+originated by the router, base chain is **output**.
+A new simplified packet flow diagram is shown next, which shows the path
+for traffic destinated to the router itself, and traffic generated by the
+router (starting from circle number 6):
+
+.. figure:: /_static/images/firewall-input-packet-flow.png
+
+Base chain is for traffic toward the router is ``set firewall ipv4 input
+filter ...``
+
+And base chain for traffic generated by the router is ``set firewall ipv4
+output filter ...``
+
+.. note:: **Important note about default-actions:**
+ If default action for any base chain is not defined, then the default
+ action is set to **accept** for that chain. For custom chains, if default
+ action is not defined, then the default-action is set to **drop**
+
+Custom firewall chains can be created, with commands
+``set firewall ipv4 name <name> ...``. In order to use
+such custom chain, a rule with **action jump**, and the appropiate **target**
+should be defined in a base chain.
+
+*********************
+Firewall - IPv4 Rules
+*********************
+
+For firewall filtering, firewall rules needs to be created. Each rule is
+numbered, has an action to apply if the rule is matched, and the ability
+to specify multiple criteria matchers. Data packets go through the rules
+from 1 - 999999, so order is crucial. At the first match the action of the
+rule will be executed.
+
+Actions
+=======
+
+If a rule is defined, then an action must be defined for it. This tells the
+firewall what to do if all criteria matchers defined for such rule do match.
+
+The action can be :
+
+ * ``accept``: accept the packet.
+
+ * ``continue``: continue parsing next rule.
+
+ * ``drop``: drop the packet.
+
+ * ``reject``: reject the packet.
+
+ * ``jump``: jump to another custom chain.
+
+ * ``return``: Return from the current chain and continue at the next rule
+ of the last chain.
+
+ * ``queue``: Enqueue packet to userspace.
+
+ * ``synproxy``: synproxy the packet.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 forward filter rule <1-999999> action
+ [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return | synproxy]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 input filter rule <1-999999> action
+ [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return | synproxy]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 output filter rule <1-999999> action
+ [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 name <name> rule <1-999999> action
+ [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
+
+ This required setting defines the action of the current rule. If action is
+ set to jump, then jump-target is also needed.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 forward filter rule <1-999999>
+ jump-target <text>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 input filter rule <1-999999>
+ jump-target <text>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 output filter rule <1-999999>
+ jump-target <text>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 name <name> rule <1-999999>
+ jump-target <text>
+
+ To be used only when action is set to jump. Use this command to specify
+ jump target.
+
+Also, **default-action** is an action that takes place whenever a packet does
+not match any rule in it's chain. For base chains, possible options for
+**default-action** are **accept** or **drop**.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 forward filter default-action
+ [accept | drop]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 input filter default-action
+ [accept | drop]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 output filter default-action
+ [accept | drop]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 name <name> default-action
+ [accept | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
+
+ This set the default action of the rule-set if no rule matched a packet
+ criteria. If defacult-action is set to ``jump``, then
+ ``default-jump-target`` is also needed. Note that for base chains, default
+ action can only be set to ``accept`` or ``drop``, while on custom chain,
+ more actions are available.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 name <name> default-jump-target <text>
+
+ To be used only when ``defult-action`` is set to ``jump``. Use this
+ command to specify jump target for default rule.
+
+.. note:: **Important note about default-actions:**
+ If default action for any base chain is not defined, then the default
+ action is set to **accept** for that chain. For custom chains, if default
+ action is not defined, then the default-action is set to **drop**
+
+Firewall Logs

+
+Logging can be enable for every single firewall rule. If enabled, other
+log options can be defined.

+every defined custom chain.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv4 name <name> description <text>

+IPv6 Firewall Configuration
+###########################
+
+********
+Overview
+********
+
+In this section there's useful information of all firewall configuration that
+can be done regarding IPv6, and appropiate op-mode commands.
+Configuration commands covered in this section:
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 ...
+
+From main structure defined in :doc:`Firewall Overview</configuration/firewall/index>`
+in this section you can find detailed information only for the next part
+of the general structure:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ - set firewall
+ * ipv6
+ - forward
+ + filter
+ - input
+ + filter
+ - output
+ + filter
+ - name
+ + custom_name
+
+For transit traffic, which is received by the router and forwarded, base chain
+is **forward**. A simplified packet flow diagram for transit traffic is shown
+next:
+
+.. figure:: /_static/images/firewall-fwd-packet-flow.png
+
+Where firewall base chain to configure firewall filtering rules for transit
+traffic is ``set firewall ipv6 forward filter ...``, which happens in stage 5,
+highlightened with red color.
+
+For traffic towards the router itself, base chain is **input**, while traffic
+originated by the router, base chain is **output**.
+A new simplified packet flow diagram is shown next, which shows the path
+for traffic destinated to the router itself, and traffic generated by the
+router (starting from circle number 6):
+
+.. figure:: /_static/images/firewall-input-packet-flow.png
+
+Base chain is for traffic toward the router is ``set firewall ipv6 input
+filter ...``
+
+And base chain for traffic generated by the router is ``set firewall ipv6
+output filter ...``
+
+.. note:: **Important note about default-actions:**
+ If default action for any base chain is not defined, then the default
+ action is set to **accept** for that chain. For custom chains, if default
+ action is not defined, then the default-action is set to **drop**
+
+Custom firewall chains can be created, with commands
+``set firewall ipv6 name <name> ...``. In order to use
+such custom chain, a rule with **action jump**, and the appropiate **target**
+should be defined in a base chain.
+
+******************************
+Firewall - IPv6 Rules
+******************************
+
+For firewall filtering, firewall rules needs to be created. Each rule is
+numbered, has an action to apply if the rule is matched, and the ability
+to specify multiple criteria matchers. Data packets go through the rules
+from 1 - 999999, so order is crucial. At the first match the action of the
+rule will be executed.
+
+Actions
+=======
+
+If a rule is defined, then an action must be defined for it. This tells the
+firewall what to do if all criteria matchers defined for such rule do match.
+
+The action can be :
+
+ * ``accept``: accept the packet.
+
+ * ``continue``: continue parsing next rule.
+
+ * ``drop``: drop the packet.
+
+ * ``reject``: reject the packet.
+
+ * ``jump``: jump to another custom chain.
+
+ * ``return``: Return from the current chain and continue at the next rule
+ of the last chain.
+
+ * ``queue``: Enqueue packet to userspace.
+
+ * ``synproxy``: synproxy the packet.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule <1-999999> action
+ [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return | synproxy]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 input filter rule <1-999999> action
+ [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return | synproxy]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 output filter rule <1-999999> action
+ [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> rule <1-999999> action
+ [accept | continue | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
+
+ This required setting defines the action of the current rule. If action is
+ set to jump, then jump-target is also needed.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule <1-999999>
+ jump-target <text>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 input filter rule <1-999999>
+ jump-target <text>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 output filter rule <1-999999>
+ jump-target <text>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> rule <1-999999>
+ jump-target <text>
+
+ To be used only when action is set to jump. Use this command to specify
+ jump target.
+
+Also, **default-action** is an action that takes place whenever a packet does
+not match any rule in it's chain. For base chains, possible options for
+**default-action** are **accept** or **drop**.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter default-action
+ [accept | drop]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 input filter default-action
+ [accept | drop]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 output filter default-action
+ [accept | drop]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> default-action
+ [accept | drop | jump | queue | reject | return]
+
+ This set the default action of the rule-set if no rule matched a packet
+ criteria. If defacult-action is set to ``jump``, then
+ ``default-jump-target`` is also needed. Note that for base chains, default
+ action can only be set to ``accept`` or ``drop``, while on custom chain,
+ more actions are available.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> default-jump-target <text>
+
+ To be used only when ``defult-action`` is set to ``jump``. Use this
+ command to specify jump target for default rule.
+
+.. note:: **Important note about default-actions:**
+ If default action for any base chain is not defined, then the default
+ action is set to **accept** for that chain. For custom chains, if default
+ action is not defined, then the default-action is set to **drop**
+
+Firewall Logs

+every defined custom chain.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> description <text>
+
+ Provide a rule-set description to a custom firewall chain.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule <1-999999>

+
+ Provide a description for each rule.
+
+Rule Status
+===========
+
+When defining a rule, it is enable by default. In some cases, it is useful to
+just disable the rule, rather than removing it.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule <1-999999> disable
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 input filter rule <1-999999> disable
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 output filter rule <1-999999> disable
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> rule <1-999999> disable
+
+ Command for disabling a rule but keep it in the configuration.
+
+Matching criteria
+=================
+
+There are a lot of matching criteria against which the package can be tested.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule <1-999999>
+ connection-status nat [destination | source]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 input filter rule <1-999999>
+ connection-status nat [destination | source]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 output filter rule <1-999999>
+ connection-status nat [destination | source]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> rule <1-999999>
+ connection-status nat [destination | source]
+
+ Match criteria based on nat connection status.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule <1-999999>
+ connection-mark <1-2147483647>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 input filter rule <1-999999>
+ connection-mark <1-2147483647>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 output filter rule <1-999999>
+ connection-mark <1-2147483647>
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> rule <1-999999>
+ connection-mark <1-2147483647>
+
+ Match criteria based on connection mark.
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule <1-999999>
+ source address [address | addressrange | CIDR]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 input filter rule <1-999999>
+ source address [address | addressrange | CIDR]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 output filter rule <1-999999>
+ source address [address | addressrange | CIDR]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> rule <1-999999>
+ source address [address | addressrange | CIDR]
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule <1-999999>
+ destination address [address | addressrange | CIDR]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 input filter rule <1-999999>
+ destination address [address | addressrange | CIDR]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 output filter rule <1-999999>
+ destination address [address | addressrange | CIDR]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> rule <1-999999>
+ destination address [address | addressrange | CIDR]
+
+ Match criteria based on source and/or destination address. This is similar
+ to the network groups part, but here you are able to negate the matching
+ addresses.
+
+ .. code-block:: none
+
+ set firewall ipv6 name FOO rule 100 source address 2001:db8::202
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule <1-999999>
+ source address-mask [address]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 input filter rule <1-999999>
+ source address-mask [address]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 output filter rule <1-999999>
+ source address-mask [address]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> rule <1-999999>
+ source address-mask [address]
+
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 forward filter rule <1-999999>
+ destination address-mask [address]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 input filter rule <1-999999>
+ destination address-mask [address]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 output filter rule <1-999999>
+ destination address-mask [address]
+.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6 name <name> rule <1-999999>
+ destination address-mask [address]
+
+ An arbitrary netmask can be applied to mask addresses to only match against
+ a specific portion. This is particularly useful with IPv6 as rules will
+ remain valid if the IPv6 prefix changes and the host
+ portion of systems IPv6 address is static (for example, with SLAAC or
+ `tokenised IPv6 addresses
+ <https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/id/draft-chown-6man-tokenised-ipv6-identifiers-02.txt>`_)
+
