There is inconsistent default behavior between Shorewall 4.6.13.4 and
Shorewall6 4.6.13.4. Both have

DROP_DEFAULT=Drop

in their config file but Shorewall drops auth packets and Shorewall6
rejects them.

According to the documentation <http://shorewall.net/4.6/Actions.html>, I
think, Shorewall is correct.


firewall# grep DROP_DEFAULT /etc/shorewall*/shorewall*.conf
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf:DROP_DEFAULT=Drop
/etc/shorewall6/shorewall6.conf:DROP_DEFAULT=Drop
firewall# shorewall show | grep 113
firewall# shorewall6 show | grep 113
    0     0 reject     tcp      *      *       ::/0
::/0                 tcp dpt:113 /* Auth */
    0     0 reject     tcp      *      *       ::/0
::/0                 tcp dpt:113 /* Auth */
firewall#


firewall# grep DROP_DEFAULT /etc/shorewall*/shorewall*.conf
/etc/shorewall/shorewall.conf:DROP_DEFAULT="Drop(-,REJECT)"
/etc/shorewall6/shorewall6.conf:DROP_DEFAULT="Drop(-,REJECT)"
firewall# shorewall show | grep 113
    0     0 reject     tcp  --  *      *       0.0.0.0/0
0.0.0.0/0            tcp dpt:113 /* Auth */
firewall# shorewall6 show | grep 113
    0     0 reject     tcp      *      *       ::/0
::/0                 tcp dpt:113 /* Auth */
    0     0 reject     tcp      *      *       ::/0
::/0                 tcp dpt:113 /* Auth */
