Firewall
########
********
Overview
********
VyOS makes use of Linux `netfilter `_ for packet
filtering.
The firewall supports the creation of groups for ports, addresses, and
networks (implemented using netfilter ipset) and the option of interface
or zone based firewall policy.
.. note:: **Important note on usage of terms:**
The firewall makes use of the terms `in`, `out`, and `local`
for firewall policy. Users experienced with netfilter often confuse
`in` to be a reference to the `INPUT` chain, and `out` the `OUTPUT`
chain from netfilter. This is not the case. These instead indicate
the use of the `FORWARD` chain and either the input or output
interface. The `INPUT` chain, which is used for local traffic to the
OS, is a reference to as `local` with respect to its input interface.
***************
Global settings
***************
Some firewall settings are global and have an affect on the whole system.
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall 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 all-ping** affects only to LOCAL and it always
behaves in the most restrictive way
.. code-block:: none
set firewall 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 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 broadcast-ping [enable | disable]
This setting enable or disable the response of icmp broadcast
messages. The following system parameter will be altered:

******
Groups
******
Firewall groups represent collections of IP addresses, networks, ports,
mac addresses or domains. Once created, a group can be referenced by
firewall, nat and policy route rules as either a source or destination
matcher. Members can be added or removed from a group without changes to,
or the need to reload, individual firewall rules.
Groups need to have unique names. Even though some contain IPv4
addresses and others contain IPv6 addresses, they still need to have
unique names, so you may want to append "-v4" or "-v6" to your group
names.
Address Groups
==============
In an **address group** a single IP address or IP address ranges are
defined.
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group address-group address [address |
address range]
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-address-group 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 description
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-address-group description
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 network
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-network-group network
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 description
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group ipv6-network-group description
Provide a IPv4 or IPv6 network 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 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 description
Provide a port group description.
MAC Groups
==========
A **mac group** represents a collection of mac addresses.
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group mac-group 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
Domain Groups
=============
A **domain group** represents a collection of domains.
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall group domain-group address
Define a domain group.
.. code-block:: none
set firewall group domain-group DOM address example.com
*********
Rule-Sets
*********
A rule-set is a named collection of firewall rules that can be applied
to an interface or a zone. Each rule is numbered, has an action to apply
if the rule is matched, and the ability to specify the criteria to
match. Data packets go through the rules from 1 - 999999, at the first match
the action of the rule will be executed.
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall name description
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6-name description

criteria. If defacult-action is set to ``jump``, then
``default-jump-target`` is also needed.
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall name default-jump-target
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6-name default-jump-target
To be used only when ``defult-action`` is set to ``jump``. Use this
command to specify jump target for default rule.

.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6-name rule <1-999999> action [accept |
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 name rule <1-999999> jump-target
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6-name rule <1-999999> jump-target
To be used only when ``action`` is set to ``jump``. Use this

[destination | source]
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6-name rule <1-999999> connection-status
nat [destination | source]
Match criteria based on nat connection status.
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall name rule <1-999999> connection-mark
<1-2147483647>

<1-2147483647>
Match criteria based on connection mark.
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall name rule <1-999999> source address
[address | addressrange | CIDR]
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall name rule <1-999999> destination address
[address | addressrange | CIDR]
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6-name rule <1-999999> source address
[address | addressrange | CIDR]
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6-name rule <1-999999> destination address
[address | addressrange | CIDR]
This is similar to the network groups part, but here you are able to negate
the matching addresses.
.. code-block:: none
set firewall name WAN-IN-v4 rule 100 source address 192.0.2.10-192.0.2.11
# with a '!' the rule match everything except the specified subnet
set firewall name WAN-IN-v4 rule 101 source address !203.0.113.0/24
set firewall ipv6-name WAN-IN-v6 rule 100 source address 2001:db8::202
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall name rule <1-999999> source address-mask
[address]
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall name rule <1-999999> destination address-mask
[address]
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6-name rule <1-999999> source address-mask
[address]
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6-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 and a zone-based
firewall 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
`_)
This functions for both individual addresses and address groups.
.. code-block:: none
# Match any IPv6 address with the suffix ::0000:0000:0000:beef
set firewall ipv6-name WAN-LAN-v6 rule 100 destination address ::beef
set firewall ipv6-name WAN-LAN-v6 rule 100 destination address-mask ::ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff
# Match any IPv4 address with `11` as the 2nd octet and `13` as the forth octet

.. cfgcmd:: set firewall name rule <1-999999> recent time
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall ipv6-name rule <1-999999> recent time
Match when 'count' amount of connections are seen within 'time'. These
matching criteria can be used to block brute-force attempts.
***********************************
Applying a Rule-Set to an Interface
***********************************
A Rule-Set can be applied to every interface:
* ``in``: Ruleset for forwarded packets on an inbound interface
* ``out``: Ruleset for forwarded packets on an outbound interface
* ``local``: Ruleset for packets destined for this router
.. cfgcmd:: set firewall interface [in | out | local] [name |
ipv6-name]
Here are some examples for applying a rule-set to an interface
.. code-block:: none
set firewall interface eth1.100 in name LANv4-IN
set firewall interface eth1.100 out name LANv4-OUT
set firewall interface bond0 in name LANv4-IN
set firewall interface vtun1 in name LANv4-IN
set firewall interface eth2* in name LANv4-IN
.. note::
As you can see in the example here, you can assign the same rule-set to
several interfaces. An interface can only have one rule-set per chain.
.. note::
You can use wildcard ``*`` to match a group of interfaces.
