Shorewall 5.1.1 Beta 2 is now available for testing.
Problems Corrected:
1) In Beta 1, optional interfaces that were not provider interfaces
caused a fatal error to be raised erroneously.
New Features:
1) The new 'Exact' setting for USE_DEFAULT_RT has been replaced with
a new configuration option.
Since the creation of the USE_DEFAULT_RT option, when
USE_DEFAULT_RT=Yes, 'balance=1' is assumed on all provider
interfaces unless 'fallback', 'load', 'primary', 'loose' or
'tproxy' is specified. This makes it awkward to define a provider
that does not generate a default route in either the 'balance' or
'default' routing tables; it is necessary to specify 'loose' then
add the routing rules that are suppressed by that option.
To address this issue, it is now possible to specify
BALANCE_PROVIDERS=No. When USE_DEFAULT_RT=Yes and
BALANCE_PROVIDERS=No and none of the above-listed options is
specified, the provider will generate no entry in the 'balance' or
'default routing tables.
All of the released shorewall[6].conf files now specify
BALANCE_PROVIDERS=No. The default value is Yes, to provide backward
compatibility with earlier releases. The setting is ignored when
USE_DEFAULT_RT=No.
Thank you for testing,
