RC 1 is now available for testing. Problems Corrected since Beta 3:
1) In Beta 3, if a rule with a SWITCH that included the chain name did
not survive optimization, then 'echo' would issue an error when
trying to initialize the corresponding Netfilter condition.
New/Changed Features since Beta 3:
1) The compiler allows overriding the setting of 'inline' on the
Shorewall standard actions within
/etc/shorewall[6]/actions. Beware, however, that some of them
don't work when in-lined so the compiler will ignore the 'inline'
option with a warning for those actions:
Broadcast
DropSmurfs
Invalid
NonSyn
RST
TCPFlags
2) In SWITCH columns, the name of the current Netfilter chain
will be substituted for '@0' and '@{0}'.
Example (using alternative rule column specification):
#ACTION SOURCE DEST ...
NFLOG net fw ; switch:@{0}_logall
The name of the switch will be 'net2fw_logall'.
Note 1: Non-alphanumeric characters other than '_' and '-' will be
deleted from the chain name before substitution.
Note 2: The chain name substituted is the one to which the rule is
initially added. The rule may end up in a different chain due to
optimization.
14) Optimization level 16 now suppresses duplicate rules in chains from
all tables (it previously only suppressed duplicates in the 'raw'
table).
Non-adjacent rules containing 'mark', 'connmark', 'dscp', 'ecn',
'set', 'tos' or 'u32' matches are not suppressed:
Thank you for testing,
