[pve-firewall.git] / README

Experimental software, only used for testing.

Note: you need to change values in /etc/sysctl.d/pve.conf to:

net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables = 1
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables = 1
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-arptables = 1
net.bridge.bridge-nf-filter-vlan-tagged = 1

and reboot after that change.


VM firewall rules are read from /etc/pve/firewall/<VMID>.fw

You can find examples in the example/ dir

Note: All commands overwrites /etc/shorewall/, so don't use if you have
and existing shorewall config you want to keep.

Use the following command to generate shorewall configuration:

./pvefw compile

To compile and start the firewall:

./pvefw start

To compile and restart the firewall:

./pvefw restart

To stop the firewall:

./pvefw stop

To clear all iptable rules:

./pvefw clear
