Folks,
I am having trouble with configuring ufw on my firewall(server). I have the
wired side of my network up and running however the wireless side does not want
to work properly.
My network is defined in two sub nets:
192.168.1xx.0/24 - the wired side
192.168.1xx.32/24 - wireless side
I have configured ufw as follows:
cdjsys at mateo:~$ sudo ufw status verbose
[sudo] password for cdjsys:
Status: active
Logging: on (low)
Default: deny (incoming), allow (outgoing)
New profiles: skip
To Action From
-- ------ ----
22 ALLOW IN Anywhere
Anywhere ALLOW IN 192.168.139.0/24
I changed /etc/default/ufw ro read:
# Next line changed from "DROP" to "ACCEPT" to allow IP Masquarding, per UFW docs.
# By CDJ Systems on 04/13/2013 - CDJSYS
DEFAULT_FORWARD_POLICY="ACCEPT"
per instructions in the documentation about using Masquerading an also the file
/etc/ufw/sysctl.conf was changed to read:
# Uncomment this to allow this host to route packets between interfaces
# Next line activated from comment by CDJ Systems on 04/13/2013 - CDJSYS
net/ipv4/ip_forward=1
#net/ipv6/conf/default/forwarding=1
and finally /etc/ufw/before.rules was modified to read:
# Next lines inserted by CDJ Systems on 04/13/2013 - CDJSYS
# nat Table rulles
*nat
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
# Forward traffic from eth1 and eth2 through eth0.
-A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1xx.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
# Forward traffic from eth2 through eth0.
#-A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1xx.32/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
# don't delete the 'COMMIT' line or these nat table rules won't be processed
COMMIT
# end inserted lines
PLEASE NOTE: the address range was changed from the one in the documentation
which read:
-A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.0.0/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE
That entry FAILED to allow even the wired network to function.
My question is how do a configure a separate entry for the wireless sub net?
I can use the wireless ONLY within my local network NOTHING to or from the
internet!
Thanks,
Jay
