ensure

Valid values: present, absent

Manage the state of this rule.

Default value: present

gateway

The TEE target will clone a packet and redirect this clone to another machine on the local network segment. gateway is the target host's IP.

gid

GID or Group owner matching rule. Accepts a string argument only, as iptables does not accept multiple gid in a single statement.

goto

The value for the iptables --goto parameter. Normal values are:

  • QUEUE
  • RETURN
  • DNAT
  • SNAT
  • LOG
  • MASQUERADE
  • REDIRECT
  • MARK

But any valid chain name is allowed.

hashlimit_above

Match if the rate is above amount/quantum. This parameter or hashlimit_upto is required. Allowed forms are '40','40/second','40/minute','40/hour','40/day'.

hashlimit_burst

Valid values: %r{^\d+$}

Maximum initial number of packets to match: this number gets recharged by one every time the limit specified above is not reached, up to this number; the default is 5. When byte-based rate matching is requested, this option specifies the amount of bytes that can exceed the given rate. This option should be used with caution -- if the entry expires, the burst value is reset too.

hashlimit_dstmask

Like --hashlimit-srcmask, but for destination addresses.

hashlimit_htable_expire

After how many milliseconds do hash entries expire.

hashlimit_htable_gcinterval

How many milliseconds between garbage collection intervals.

hashlimit_htable_max

Maximum entries in the hash.

hashlimit_htable_size

The number of buckets of the hash table

hashlimit_mode

A comma-separated list of objects to take into consideration. If no --hashlimit-mode option is given, hashlimit acts like limit, but at the expensive of doing the hash housekeeping. Allowed values are: srcip, srcport, dstip, dstport

hashlimit_name

The name for the /proc/net/ipt_hashlimit/foo entry. This parameter is required.

hashlimit_srcmask

When --hashlimit-mode srcip is used, all source addresses encountered will be grouped according to the given prefix length and the so-created subnet will be subject to hashlimit. prefix must be between (inclusive) 0 and 32. Note that --hashlimit-srcmask 0 is basically doing the same thing as not specifying srcip for --hashlimit-mode, but is technically more expensive.

hashlimit_upto

Match if the rate is below or equal to amount/quantum. It is specified either as a number, with an optional time quantum suffix (the default is 3/hour), or as amountb/second (number of bytes per second). This parameter or hashlimit_above is required. Allowed forms are '40','40/second','40/minute','40/hour','40/day'.

helper

Invoke the nf_conntrack_xxx helper module for this packet.

hop_limit

Valid values: %r{^\d+$}

A value of "any" is not supported. To achieve this behaviour the parameter should simply be omitted or undefined. An array of values is also not supported. To match against multiple ICMP types, please use separate rules for each ICMP type.

iniface

Valid values: %r{^!?\s?[a-zA-Z0-9\-\._\+\:@]+$}

isfirstfrag

Valid values: true, false

If true, matches if the packet is the first fragment. Sadly cannot be negated. ipv6.

Set to true to match tcp fragments (requires type to be set to tcp)

ishasmorefrags

Valid values: true, false

If true, matches if the packet has it's 'more fragments' bit set. ipv6.

islastfrag

Valid values: true, false

If true, matches if the packet is the last fragment. ipv6.

For the values ACCEPT, DROP, and REJECT, you must use the generic 'action' parameter. This is to enfore the use of generic parameters where possible for maximum cross-platform modelling.

If you set both 'accept' and 'jump' parameters, you will get an error as only one of the options should be set.

kernel_timezone

Valid values: true, false

Use the kernel timezone instead of UTC to determine whether a packet meets the time regulations.

length

Sets the length of layer-3 payload to match.

limit

Rate limiting value for matched packets. The format is: rate/[/second/|/minute|/hour|/day].

When used, this will narrow the match to only happen when the address is in the list and the TTL of the current packet matches that of the packet which hit the recent => 'set' rule. This may be useful if you have problems with people faking their source address in order to DoS you via this module by disallowing others access to your site by sending bogus packets to you. Must be boolean true.

set_dscp

Set DSCP Markings.

set_dscp_class

This sets the DSCP field according to a predefined DiffServ class.

set_mark

Set the Netfilter mark value associated with the packet. Accepts either of: mark/mask or mark. These will be converted to hex if they are not already.

set_mss

Sets the TCP MSS value for packets.

socket

Valid values: true, false

If true, matches if an open socket can be found by doing a coket lookup on the packet.

source

The source address. For example:

source => '192.168.2.0/24'

You can also negate a mask by putting ! in front. For example:

source => '! 192.168.2.0/24'

The source can also be an IPv6 address if your provider supports it.

sport

The source port to match for this filter (if the protocol supports ports). Will accept a single element or an array.

For some firewall providers you can pass a range of ports in the format:

<start_number>-<ending_number>

For example:

1-1024

This would cover ports 1 to 1024.

src_cc

Valid values: %r{^[A-Z]{2}(,[A-Z]{2})*$}

src attribute for the module geoip

src_range

The source IP range. For example:

src_range => '192.168.1.1-192.168.1.10'

The source IP range must be in 'IP1-IP2' format.

src_type

Valid values: [:UNSPEC, :UNICAST, :LOCAL, :BROADCAST, :ANYCAST, :MULTICAST, :BLACKHOLE, :UNREACHABLE, :PROHIBIT, :THROW, :NAT, :XRESOLVE].map { |address_type| [ address_type, "! #{address_type}".to_sym, "#{address_type} --limit-iface-in".to_sym, "#{address_type} --limit-iface-out".to_sym, "! #{address_type} --limit-iface-in".to_sym, "! #{address_type} --limit-iface-out".to_sym, ] }.flatten

The source address type. For example:

src_type => ['LOCAL']

Can be one of:

  • UNSPEC - an unspecified address
  • UNICAST - a unicast address
  • LOCAL - a local address
  • BROADCAST - a broadcast address
  • ANYCAST - an anycast packet
  • MULTICAST - a multicast address
  • BLACKHOLE - a blackhole address
  • UNREACHABLE - an unreachable address
  • PROHIBIT - a prohibited address
  • THROW - undocumented
  • NAT - undocumented
  • XRESOLVE - undocumented

In addition, it accepts '--limit-iface-in' and '--limit-iface-out' flags, specified as:

src_type => ['LOCAL --limit-iface-in']

It can also be negated using '!':

src_type => ['! LOCAL']

Will accept a single element or an array.

stat_every

Match one packet every nth packet. Requires stat_mode => 'nth'

stat_mode

Valid values: nth, random

Set the matching mode for statistic matching.

stat_packet

Valid values: %r{^\d+$}

Set the initial counter value for the nth mode. Must be between 0 and the value of stat_every. Defaults to 0. Requires stat_mode => 'nth'

stat_probability

Set the probability from 0 to 1 for a packet to be randomly matched. It works only with stat_mode => 'random'.

state

Valid values: INVALID, ESTABLISHED, NEW, RELATED, UNTRACKED

Matches a packet based on its state in the firewall stateful inspection table. Values can be:

  • INVALID
  • ESTABLISHED
  • NEW
  • RELATED
  • UNTRACKED
string

String matching feature. Matches the packet against the pattern given as an argument.

string_algo

Valid values: bm, kmp

String matching feature, pattern matching strategy.

string_from

String matching feature, offset from which we start looking for any matching.

string_hex

String matching feature. Matches the package against the hex pattern given as an argument.

string_to

String matching feature, offset up to which we should scan.

table

Valid values: nat, mangle, filter, raw, rawpost

Table to use. Can be one of:

  • nat
  • mangle
  • filter
  • raw
  • rawpost

Default value: filter

tcp_flags

Match when the TCP flags are as specified. Is a string with a list of comma-separated flag names for the mask, then a space, then a comma-separated list of flags that should be set. The flags are: SYN ACK FIN RST URG PSH ALL NONE Note that you specify them in the order that iptables --list-rules would list them to avoid having puppet think you changed the flags. Example: FIN,SYN,RST,ACK SYN matches packets with the SYN bit set and the ACK,RST and FIN bits cleared. Such packets are used to request TCP connection initiation.

time_contiguous

Valid values: true, false

When time_stop is smaller than time_start value, match this as a single time period instead distinct intervals.

time_start

Only match during the given daytime. The possible time range is 00:00:00 to 23:59:59. Leading zeroes are allowed (e.g. "06:03") and correctly interpreted as base-10.

time_stop

Only match during the given daytime. The possible time range is 00:00:00 to 23:59:59. Leading zeroes are allowed (e.g. "06:03") and correctly interpreted as base-10.

to

For NETMAP this will replace the destination IP

todest

When using jump => "DNAT" you can specify the new destination address using this paramter.

toports

For DNAT this is the port that will replace the destination port.

tosource

When using jump => "SNAT" you can specify the new source address using this parameter.

uid

UID or Username owner matching rule. Accepts a string argument only, as iptables does not accept multiple uid in a single statement.

week_days

Valid values: Mon, Tue, Wed, Thu, Fri, Sat, Sun

Only match on the given weekdays.

zone

Assign this packet to zone id and only have lookups done in that zone.

Parameters

The following parameters are available in the firewall type.

line

Read-only property for caching the rule line.

name

Valid values: %r{^\d+[[:graph:][:space:]]+$}

namevar

The canonical name of the rule. This name is also used for ordering so make sure you prefix the rule with a number:

000 this runs first
999 this runs last

Depending on the provider, the name of the rule can be stored using the comment feature of the underlying firewall subsystem.

provider

The specific backend to use for this firewall resource. You will seldom need to specify this --- Puppet will usually discover the appropriate provider for your platform.

firewallchain

Currently this supports only iptables, ip6tables and ebtables on Linux. And provides support for setting the default policy on chains and tables that allow it.

Autorequires: If Puppet is managing the iptables, iptables-persistent, or iptables-services packages, and the provider is iptables_chain, the firewall resource will autorequire those packages to ensure that any required binaries are installed.

Providers

  • iptables_chain is the only provider that supports firewallchain.

Features

  • iptables_chain: The provider provides iptables chain features.
  • policy: Default policy (inbuilt chains only).

Properties

The following properties are available in the firewallchain type.

ensure

Valid values: present, absent

The basic property that the resource should be in.

Default value: present

policy

Valid values: accept, drop, queue, return

This is the action to when the end of the chain is reached. It can only be set on inbuilt chains (INPUT, FORWARD, OUTPUT, PREROUTING, POSTROUTING) and can be one of:

  • accept - the packet is accepted
  • drop - the packet is dropped
  • queue - the packet is passed userspace
  • return - the packet is returned to calling (jump) queue or the default of inbuilt chains

Parameters

The following parameters are available in the firewallchain type.

ignore

Regex to perform on firewall rules to exempt unmanaged rules from purging (when enabled). This is matched against the output of iptables-save.

This can be a single regex, or an array of them. To support flags, use the ruby inline flag mechanism. Meaning a regex such as /foo/i can be written as '(?i)foo' or '(?i:foo)'

Full example:

firewallchain { 'INPUT:filter:IPv4':
  purge => true,
  ignore => [
    '-j fail2ban-ssh', # ignore the fail2ban jump rule
    '--comment "[^"]*(?i:ignore)[^"]*"', # ignore any rules with "ignore" (case insensitive) in the comment in the rule
  ],
}
ignore_foreign

Valid values: false, true

Ignore rules that do not match the puppet title pattern "^\d+[[:graph:][:space:]]" when purging unmanaged firewall rules in this chain. This can be used to ignore rules that were not put in by puppet. Beware that nothing keeps other systems from configuring firewall rules with a comment that starts with digits, and is indistinguishable from puppet-configured rules.

Default value: false

name

namevar

The canonical name of the chain.

For iptables the format must be {chain}:{table}:{protocol}.

provider

The specific backend to use for this firewallchain resource. You will seldom need to specify this --- Puppet will usually discover the appropriate provider for your platform.

purge

Valid values: false, true

Purge unmanaged firewall rules in this chain

Default value: false
