Configure 6In4 Tunnel in Pfsense Configure 6in4 Tunnel in pfSense Lawrence E. Hughes 18 November 2017 pfSense is a powerful, Dual Stack (IPv4 + IPv6) open source firewall/router for x86 platforms. You can install it on a variety of platforms, including VirtualBox for building virtual multi subnet networks. It can function as a fully operational dual stack router, but it has sophisticated controls over traffic flows, so it is also a firewall. Free documentation is available online at https://doc.pfsense.org/index.php/Main_Page Features (from website) Firewall with stateful packet inspection Easy to use Web Based Graphical Interface Installation Setup Wizard Configurable Dashboard with many available widgets IPv4 and IPv6 support Wireless Access Point (must install a wireless interface which supports hostap mode), including VAP/MBSS support on certain chips. Wireless Client Support (802.11 and 3G/4G with supported devices) Ability to setup and filter/isolate multiple interfaces (LAN, DMZ, etc.) Traffic Shaping (ALTQ, Limiters, 802.1p match/set, DiffServ/DSCP matching) State Table controls (per-rule / per-host limits, timers, etc.) NAT (Port Forwards, 1:1 NAT, Outbound NAT, NPt) Redundancy/High Availability - CARP+pfsync+XMLRPC Config sync allows for hardware failover. Two or more firewalls can be configured as a failover cluster.

This writeup assumes you: Have installed pfSense on your firewall device (once this is done, you can remove any video display, keyboard and CDROM drive used during the install). Have an ISP account with a public IPv4 address Have configured your ISP Customer Premises Equipment (modem, router, etc) in bridge mode (no NAT, no DHCP, no firewalling), where the public IPv4 address is available on the customer side of the interface. Have configured a static IPv4 address on the LAN node of your firewall (e.g. 172.21.0.1/16). No LAN IPv6 address is needed at this point. Have configured a DHCPv4 server on your firewall to allow a client node connected to the LAN interface of your firewall to configure with an address that can access the LAN interface of the firewall (e.g. 172.21.3.1 / 255.255.0.0. The default gateway of the client node should be the LAN address of your firewall (e.g. 172.21.0.1). No DNS configuration is required at this time. You can point it to the LAN interface of the firewall for now. Have connected an Ethernet cable from the customer side of the ISP CPE to the WAN port on your firewall. Have connected another Ethernet cable from the LAN port on your firewall to the Ethernet interface of a client node (e.g. notebook running Windows). The client node should do network configuration via DHCPv4. Can ping the firewall LAN interface from the client node (e.g. ping 172.21.0.1) On my network, the ISP account looks like the following (as documented by ISP). Since my address is static and configured via ISP DHCPv4, I don’t really need to know these things. IPv4 public address: 101.100.162.253/24 configured via ISP DHCPv4 IPv4 upstream gateway (101.100.162.1), configured via ISP DHCPv4 IPv4 addresses of DNS (101.100.188.23, 103.7.200.10), configured via ISP DHCPv4 Verify ISP Network CPE Device Configuration Connect a client node (e.g. notebook running Windows) with an Ethernet cable to the customer side (RJ45) of your ISP CPE. The client node should use DHCPv4 to configure the network interface and DNS. [ISP CPE] ==> Ethernet interface of client node Verify that the client computer configures your public IP address as the node address, the correct subnet mask, the correct upstream gateway as the default gateway, and the DNS addresses provided by your ISP. If your ISP does not use DHCPv4, do manual configuration of your client node as per their information on connecting (e.g. static IPv4 address). Check network configuration on the client node with ipconfig: C:\Users\lhughes>ipconfig /all Windows IP Configuration Host Name . : LEHNB10 Primary Dns Suffix . : hughesnet-sg.org Node Type . : Hybrid IP Routing Enabled. : No WINS Proxy Enabled. : No DNS Suffix Search List. : hughesnet-sg.org ph.sixscape.net Ethernet adapter Ethernet: Connection-specific DNS Suffix . : ph.sixscape.net Description . : Realtek PCIe GBE Family Controller Physical Address. : 54-EE-75-98-A4-BF DHCP Enabled. : Yes Autoconfiguration Enabled . : Yes Link-local IPv6 Address . : fe80::4000:a636:10cb:36a9%11(Preferred) IPv4 Address. : 172.21.3.1(Preferred) Subnet Mask . : 255.255.0.0 Lease Obtained. : Saturday, November 18, 2017 1:36:51 PM Lease Expires . : Saturday, November 18, 2017 3:20:49 PM Default Gateway . : fe80::1:1%11 172.21.0.1 DHCP Server . : 172.21.0.1 DHCPv6 IAID . : 257224309 DHCPv6 Client DUID. : 00-01-00-01-1F-E2-B5-17-54-EE-75-98-A4-BF DNS Servers . : 172.21.0.1 NetBIOS over Tcpip. : Enabled Connection-specific DNS Suffix Search List : ph.sixscape.net Try pinging an external IPv4 address from the client node: C:\Users\lhughes>ping 172.21.0.1 Pinging 172.21.0.1 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 172.21.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64 Reply from 172.21.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64 Reply from 172.21.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64 Reply from 172.21.0.1: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=64 Ping statistics for 172.21.0.1: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 0ms, Maximum = 0ms, Average = 0ms You should also be able to surf to an IPv4 website using any browser on your client node (e.g. http://www.whatismyipaddress.com) Insert the pfSense Firewall Between the ISP CPE and the Client Node Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the Ethernet interface of the client node and insert that cable into the WAN interface of the firewall (e.g. em0). [ISP CPE] ==> [FW WAN Interface] Connect another Ethernet cable from the LAN interface of the firewall to the Ethernet interface of the client node. [FW LAN Interface] ==> Ethernet interface of client node Use ipconfig on the client node to verify that the client node still does valid private network configuration using DHCPv4, e.g. node address 172.21.3.1, subnet 255.255.0.0, default gateway 172.21.0.1, and some DNS addresses. Surf to the pfSense web configurator from the client node: https://172.21.0.1 (or whatever you configured as your LAN IP address). It will complain that the server cert is untrusted (it is self-signed) – connect anyway (how you do this depends on the browser you are using). You should see the login page: Login as admin, using the password configured during pfSense install. You should now see the pfSense dashboard in your browser: View the WAN Interface configuration: Interfaces / WAN: Click Save then Apply Changes Now view the status of all interfaces - Status / Interfaces: If you are using DHCPv4 for WAN configuration, you may need to click the Release button then Renew. You should see your WAN configuration (IPv4 address, subnet mask, gateway IPv4, DNS) appear. The LAN interface should also show the correct configuration. On your client node, you should now be able to ping external addresses right through the firewall: C:\Users\lhughes>ping 4.2.2.2 Pinging 4.2.2.2 with 32 bytes of data: Reply from 4.2.2.2: bytes=32 time=9ms TTL=59 Reply from 4.2.2.2: bytes=32 time=11ms TTL=59 Reply from 4.2.2.2: bytes=32 time=9ms TTL=59 Reply from 4.2.2.2: bytes=32 time=8ms TTL=59 Ping statistics for 4.2.2.2: Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss), Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds: Minimum = 8ms, Maximum = 11ms, Average = 9ms You should also be able to surf to IPv4 sites (e.g. http://whatismyipaddress.com) Note that this shows the public IPv4 from the outside of your NAT gateway, not the private IPv4 address of your node. The firewall is currently performing NAT44 from your public IPv4 address to the internal LAN block (172.21.0.0/16). You now have basic IPv4 service configured. Let’s move on to implementing the tunneled IPv6 from Hurricane Electric. First we need to add a firewall rule to allow Hurricane Electric to ping your public IPv4 address. This is necesssary as Hurricane Electric will only create a tunnel if it can ping the public IPv4 address. Go to Firewall / Rules / WAN; Click Add rule to End of List (Add with down arrow button): Add rule to allow ICMPv4 Echo Request from anywhere (if you like you can restrict this to just Hurricane Electric, or once the tunnel is created you can disable or remove this rule).

  • Active-Active Firewall Cluster Support in Openbsd
    Active-Active Firewall Cluster Support in OpenBSD David Gwynne School of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering, University of Queensland Submitted for the degree of Bachelor of Information Technology COMP4000 Special Topics Industry Project February 2009 to leese, who puts up with this stuff ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank Peter Sutton for allowing me the opportunity to do this work as part of my studies at the University of Queensland. A huge thanks must go to Ryan McBride for answering all my questions about pf and pfsync in general, and for the many hours working with me on this problem and helping me test and debug the code. Thanks also go to Theo de Raadt, Claudio Jeker, Henning Brauer, and everyone else at the OpenBSD network hackathons who helped me through this. iii Abstract The OpenBSD UNIX-like operating system has developed several technologies that make it useful in the role of an IP router and packet filtering firewall. These technologies include support for several standard routing protocols such as BGP and OSPF, a high performance stateful IP packet filter called pf, shared IP address and fail-over support with CARP (Common Address Redundancy Protocol), and a protocol called pfsync for synchronisation of the firewalls state with firewalls over a network link. These technologies together allow the deployment of two or more computers to provide redundant and highly available routers on a network. However, when performing stateful filtering of the TCP protocol with pf, the routers must be configured in an active-passive configuration due to the current semantics of pfsync.

    4 Implementation At this point, you should have a clear operational policy that governs how your users may make use of network services. You should also have good network monitoring tools installed and collecting data, so you can tell at a glance pre- cisely how your network is actually being used. With these major components in place, you are now ready to make changes to the network configuration that bring actual utilisation in line with policy. The implementation phase of net- work building closes the feedback loop that allows policy to be consulted upon and revised, and network services to be implemented and changed, based on information provided by the monitoring systems. This chapter will show you the essential technical components that should be in place in virtually every network connected to the Internet. These techniques will allow you to limit, prioritise, and optimise the flow of information between the Internet and your users. While these technical constraints are necessary to maintain the health of the network, there is one management technique that is often overlooked, yet nearly always makes the greatest impact on network utilisation: communica- tion with your users. If your users don't understand that their actions directly impact the performance of the network, how can they be expected to know that the network is overutilised and not "just broken?" When users are frustrated with network performance, and met with indifference (or outright contempt) by network administrators, they tend to try to find ways around the rules in order to "get their work done." More often than not, these workarounds will consume even more bandwidth, causing problems for users and administrators alike.
