As part of the security policy I am writing I need to use the above 2 
options with iptables, but I am not sure whether they are supported in 
Shorewall.

Typically, I will add secure context marking to ip packets with the 
following statement:

iptables -t mangle -A INPUT -p tcp --dst 127.0.0.1 --dport 3306 -j 
SECMARK --selctx system_u:object_r:mysqld_t:s0

This marks all packets to 127.0.0.1:3306 to be market with the 
'system_u:object_r:mysqld_t:s0' SELinux context. Does Shorewall provide 
a better way of handling this as I am not very keen on writing 'raw' 
statements and maintenance will be an absolute nightmare? Thanks in advance!
