Shorewall 5.1.8 RC 1 is now available for testing. Problems Corrected since Beta 2:
1) Previously, the generated script contained incorrect logic for
deleting default routes with metric zero ('balanced' routes and
routes generated by 'fallback=nn'); the logic only worked correctly
when applied to the 'main' routing table. It now works correctly
for all routing tables.
2) The 'ip xfrm policy' command ignores the -4 and -6 options and
dumps the policies for both address families. This release contains
a workaround that suppresses entries for the other family.
New Features since Beta 2:
1) Beginning with this release, when RESTORE_DEFAULT_ROUTE=Yes the
default route is only restored when there are no enabled
'balance/primary' providers and no enabled fallback providers.
Also beginning with this release, if the default route(s) have been
restored to the 'main' table, and a fallback provider is
successfully enabled, the default route(s) are removed from the
main table.
2) Because restoring default routes to the main routing table can
break the ability of Foolsm and other link status monitors to
properly detect non-functioning provider links, a warning message
is now issued when the 'persistent' provider option is specified
and RESTORE_DEFAULT_ROUTE=Yes.
WARNING: When RESTORE_DEFAULT_ROUTE=Yes, the 'persistent' option
may not work as expected
Thank you for testing,
-Tom
