Masahiro Yamada | a7f7f62 | 2020-06-14 01:50:22 +0900 | [diff] [blame] | 124 | help |
Linus Torvalds | 1da177e | 2005-04-16 15:20:36 -0700 | [diff] [blame] | 125 | Netfilter is a framework for filtering and mangling network packets |
| 126 | that pass through your Linux box. |
| 127 | |
| 128 | The most common use of packet filtering is to run your Linux box as |
| 129 | a firewall protecting a local network from the Internet. The type of |
| 130 | firewall provided by this kernel support is called a "packet |
| 131 | filter", which means that it can reject individual network packets |
| 132 | based on type, source, destination etc. The other kind of firewall, |
| 133 | a "proxy-based" one, is more secure but more intrusive and more |
| 134 | bothersome to set up; it inspects the network traffic much more |
| 135 | closely, modifies it and has knowledge about the higher level |
| 136 | protocols, which a packet filter lacks. Moreover, proxy-based |
| 137 | firewalls often require changes to the programs running on the local |
| 138 | clients. Proxy-based firewalls don't need support by the kernel, but |
| 139 | they are often combined with a packet filter, which only works if |
| 140 | you say Y here. |
| 141 | |
| 142 | You should also say Y here if you intend to use your Linux box as |
| 143 | the gateway to the Internet for a local network of machines without |
| 144 | globally valid IP addresses. This is called "masquerading": if one |
| 145 | of the computers on your local network wants to send something to |
| 146 | the outside, your box can "masquerade" as that computer, i.e. it |
| 147 | forwards the traffic to the intended outside destination, but |
| 148 | modifies the packets to make it look like they came from the |
| 149 | firewall box itself. It works both ways: if the outside host |
| 150 | replies, the Linux box will silently forward the traffic to the |
| 151 | correct local computer. This way, the computers on your local net |
| 152 | are completely invisible to the outside world, even though they can |
| 153 | reach the outside and can receive replies. It is even possible to |
| 154 | run globally visible servers from within a masqueraded local network |
| 155 | using a mechanism called portforwarding. Masquerading is also often |
| 156 | called NAT (Network Address Translation). |
| 157 | |
| 158 | Another use of Netfilter is in transparent proxying: if a machine on |
| 159 | the local network tries to connect to an outside host, your Linux |
| 160 | box can transparently forward the traffic to a local server, |
| 161 | typically a caching proxy server. |
| 162 | |
| 163 | Yet another use of Netfilter is building a bridging firewall. Using |
| 164 | a bridge with Network packet filtering enabled makes iptables "see" |
| 165 | the bridged traffic. For filtering on the lower network and Ethernet |
| 166 | protocols over the bridge, use ebtables (under bridge netfilter |
| 167 | configuration). |
| 168 | |
| 169 | Various modules exist for netfilter which replace the previous |
| 170 | masquerading (ipmasqadm), packet filtering (ipchains), transparent |
| 171 | proxying, and portforwarding mechanisms. Please see |
| 172 | <file:Documentation/Changes> under "iptables" for the location of |
| 173 | these packages. |

| 452 | tristate "Generic failover module" |
| 453 | help |
| 454 | The failover module provides a generic interface for paravirtual |
| 455 | drivers to register a netdev and a set of ops with a failover |
| 456 | instance. The ops are used as event handlers that get called to |
| 457 | handle netdev register/unregister/link change/name change events |
| 458 | on slave pci ethernet devices with the same mac address as the |
| 459 | failover netdev. This enables paravirtual drivers to use a |
| 460 | VF as an accelerated low latency datapath. It also allows live |
| 461 | migration of VMs with direct attached VFs by failing over to the |
| 462 | paravirtual datapath when the VF is unplugged. |
