I have ip static on the wan side. When i stop shorewall i only stop the lan side and i can still connecting over wan side (from another site) and over lan if i am working in the same place.
I only put on /etc/shorewall/routestopped this line eth0 - Where eth0 is my LAN nic. Regards! Emiliano Vazquez | PcCentro S.R.L.

In a situation like this: - a firewall has two or more internet connections, - a firewall runs shorewall 4.5.1 (multiple isps configured) - one connection is broken, - default route in the main routing table leads through the failed connection, - a firewall is 20000 km away from admin ;), and after taking the following actions: - logging in to the firewall through working connection, - changing shorewall configuration and making a stupid error in it - doing "shorewall stop; shorewall start" :s, you must take nearest flight from Europe to Australia to bring the firewall back to life ;) (because returning traffic goes through default, non-working link) Can shorewall handle such cases in a way, which would prevent similar accidents ? Did I miss any option ? If the above scenario was never considered - may I ask to add a possibility to retain appropriate route rules and routing tables after shorewall is stopped ? (extended routestopped functionality ?)
