Ok, I'm trying to construct a transparent proxy running on a virtual machine inside the shorewall firewall. The virtual machine is connected to the firewall through a virtual interface attached to the virtual switch created by OpenVSwitch. On the shorewal interface file, I configured the one associated to the virtual switch configured on the firewall in this way: #ZONE INTERFACE BROADCAST OPTIONS kvm ovsbr0 detect routeback,logmartians,nosmurfs,routefilter,tcpflags and at startup, shorewall fails with: ERROR: Can't determine the IP address of ovsbr0 which I presume is happening because OVS starts and create the ovsbr0 interface after shorewall starts.
