.Dt PF.CONF 5
|
|
.Os
|
|
.Sh NAME
|
|
.Nm pf.conf
|
|
.Nd packet filter configuration file
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
packet filter modifies, drops or passes packets according to rules or
|
|
definitions specified in
|
|
.Nm pf.conf .
|
|
.Sh STATEMENT ORDER
|
|
There are seven types of statements in
|
|
.Nm pf.conf :
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|
|
.It Cm Macros
|
|
User-defined variables may be defined and used later, simplifying
|
|
the configuration file.
|
|
Macros must be defined before they are referenced in
|
|
.Nm pf.conf .
|
|
.It Cm Tables
|
|
Tables provide a mechanism for increasing the performance and flexibility of
|
|
rules with large numbers of source or destination addresses.
|
|
.It Cm Options
|
|
Options tune the behaviour of the packet filtering engine.
|
|
.It Cm Traffic Normalization Li (e.g. Em scrub )
|
|
Traffic normalization protects internal machines against inconsistencies
|
|
in Internet protocols and implementations.
|
|
.It Cm Queueing
|
|
Queueing provides rule-based bandwidth control.
|
|
.It Cm Translation Li (Various forms of NAT)
|
|
Translation rules specify how addresses are to be mapped or redirected to
|
|
other addresses.
|
|
.It Cm Packet Filtering
|
|
Stateful and stateless packet filtering provides rule-based blocking or
|
|
passing of packets.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
With the exception of
|
|
.Cm macros
|
|
and
|
|
.Cm tables ,
|
|
the types of statements should be grouped and appear in
|
|
.Nm pf.conf
|
|
in the order shown above, as this matches the operation of the underlying
|
|
packet filtering engine.
|
|
By default
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8
|
|
enforces this order (see
|
|
.Ar set require-order
|
|
below).
|
|
.Sh MACROS
|
|
Much like
|
|
.Xr cpp 1
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr m4 1 ,
|
|
macros can be defined that will later be expanded in context.
|
|
Macro names must start with a letter, and may contain letters, digits
|
|
and underscores.
|
|
Macro names may not be reserved words (for example
|
|
.Ar pass ,
|
|
.Ar in ,
|
|
.Ar out ) .
|
|
Macros are not expanded inside quotes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example,
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
ext_if = \&"kue0\&"
|
|
all_ifs = \&"{\&" $ext_if lo0 \&"}\&"
|
|
pass out on $ext_if from any to any keep state
|
|
pass in on $ext_if proto tcp from any to any port 25 keep state
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Sh TABLES
|
|
Tables are named structures which can hold a collection of addresses and
|
|
networks.
|
|
Lookups against tables in
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
are relatively fast, making a single rule with tables much more efficient,
|
|
in terms of
|
|
processor usage and memory consumption, than a large number of rules which
|
|
differ only in IP address (either created explicitly or automatically by rule
|
|
expansion).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Tables can be used as the source or destination of filter rules,
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
rules
|
|
or
|
|
translation rules such as
|
|
.Ar nat
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar rdr
|
|
(see below for details on the various rule types).
|
|
Tables can also be used for the redirect address of
|
|
.Ar nat
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar rdr
|
|
rules and in the routing options of filter rules, but only for
|
|
.Ar round-robin
|
|
pools.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Tables can be defined with any of the following
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8
|
|
mechanisms.
|
|
As with macros, reserved words may not be used as table names.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "manually"
|
|
.It Ar manually
|
|
Persistent tables can be manually created with the
|
|
.Ar add
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar replace
|
|
option of
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8 ,
|
|
before or after the ruleset has been loaded.
|
|
.It Pa pf.conf
|
|
Table definitions can be placed directly in this file, and loaded at the
|
|
same time as other rules are loaded, atomically.
|
|
Table definitions inside
|
|
.Nm pf.conf
|
|
use the
|
|
.Ar table
|
|
statement, and are especially useful to define non-persistent tables.
|
|
The contents of a pre-existing table defined without a list of addresses
|
|
to initialize it is not altered when
|
|
.Nm pf.conf
|
|
is loaded.
|
|
A table initialized with the empty list,
|
|
.Li { } ,
|
|
will be cleared on load.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Tables may be defined with the following two attributes:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width persist
|
|
.It Ar persist
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar persist
|
|
flag forces the kernel to keep the table even when no rules refer to it.
|
|
If the flag is not set, the kernel will automatically remove the table
|
|
when the last rule referring to it is flushed.
|
|
.It Ar const
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar const
|
|
flag prevents the user from altering the contents of the table once it
|
|
has been created.
|
|
Without that flag,
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8
|
|
can be used to add or remove addresses from the table at any time, even
|
|
when running with
|
|
.Xr securelevel 7
|
|
= 2.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example,
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
table <private> const { 10/8, 172.16/12, 192.168/16 }
|
|
table <badhosts> persist
|
|
block on fxp0 from { <private>, <badhosts> } to any
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
creates a table called private, to hold RFC 1918 private network
|
|
blocks, and a table called badhosts, which is initially empty.
|
|
A filter rule is set up to block all traffic coming from addresses listed in
|
|
either table.
|
|
The private table cannot have its contents changed and the badhosts table
|
|
will exist even when no active filter rules reference it.
|
|
Addresses may later be added to the badhosts table, so that traffic from
|
|
these hosts can be blocked by using
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
# pfctl -t badhosts -Tadd 204.92.77.111
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A table can also be initialized with an address list specified in one or more
|
|
external files, using the following syntax:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
table <spam> persist file \&"/etc/spammers\&" file \&"/etc/openrelays\&"
|
|
block on fxp0 from <spam> to any
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The files
|
|
.Pa /etc/spammers
|
|
and
|
|
.Pa /etc/openrelays
|
|
list IP addresses, one per line.
|
|
Any lines beginning with a # are treated as comments and ignored.
|
|
In addition to being specified by IP address, hosts may also be
|
|
specified by their hostname.
|
|
When the resolver is called to add a hostname to a table,
|
|
.Em all
|
|
resulting IPv4 and IPv6 addresses are placed into the table.
|
|
IP addresses can also be entered in a table by specifying a valid interface
|
|
name or the
|
|
.Em self
|
|
keyword, in which case all addresses assigned to the interface(s) will be
|
|
added to the table.
|
|
.Sh OPTIONS
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
may be tuned for various situations using the
|
|
.Ar set
|
|
command.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|
|
.It Ar set timeout
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width "src.track" -compact
|
|
.It Ar interval
|
|
Interval between purging expired states and fragments.
|
|
.It Ar frag
|
|
Seconds before an unassembled fragment is expired.
|
|
.It Ar src.track
|
|
Length of time to retain a source tracking entry after the last state
|
|
expires.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When a packet matches a stateful connection, the seconds to live for the
|
|
connection will be updated to that of the
|
|
.Ar proto.modifier
|
|
which corresponds to the connection state.
|
|
Each packet which matches this state will reset the TTL.
|
|
Tuning these values may improve the performance of the
|
|
firewall at the risk of dropping valid idle connections.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar tcp.first
|
|
The state after the first packet.
|
|
.It Ar tcp.opening
|
|
The state before the destination host ever sends a packet.
|
|
.It Ar tcp.established
|
|
The fully established state.
|
|
.It Ar tcp.closing
|
|
The state after the first FIN has been sent.
|
|
.It Ar tcp.finwait
|
|
The state after both FINs have been exchanged and the connection is closed.
|
|
Some hosts (notably web servers on Solaris) send TCP packets even after closing
|
|
the connection.
|
|
Increasing
|
|
.Ar tcp.finwait
|
|
(and possibly
|
|
.Ar tcp.closing )
|
|
can prevent blocking of such packets.
|
|
.It Ar tcp.closed
|
|
The state after one endpoint sends an RST.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
ICMP and UDP are handled in a fashion similar to TCP, but with a much more
|
|
limited set of states:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar udp.first
|
|
The state after the first packet.
|
|
.It Ar udp.single
|
|
The state if the source host sends more than one packet but the destination
|
|
host has never sent one back.
|
|
.It Ar udp.multiple
|
|
The state if both hosts have sent packets.
|
|
.It Ar icmp.first
|
|
The state after the first packet.
|
|
.It Ar icmp.error
|
|
The state after an ICMP error came back in response to an ICMP packet.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Other protocols are handled similarly to UDP:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar other.first
|
|
.It Ar other.single
|
|
.It Ar other.multiple
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Timeout values can be reduced adaptively as the number of state table
|
|
entries grows.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar adaptive.start
|
|
When the number of state entries exceeds this value, adaptive scaling
|
|
begins.
|
|
All timeout values are scaled linearly with factor
|
|
(adaptive.end - number of states) / (adaptive.end - adaptive.start).
|
|
.It Ar adaptive.end
|
|
When reaching this number of state entries, all timeout values become
|
|
zero, effectively purging all state entries immediately.
|
|
This value is used to define the scale factor, it should not actually
|
|
be reached (set a lower state limit, see below).
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
These values can be defined both globally and for each rule.
|
|
When used on a per-rule basis, the values relate to the number of
|
|
states created by the rule, otherwise to the total number of
|
|
states.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
set timeout tcp.first 120
|
|
set timeout tcp.established 86400
|
|
set timeout { adaptive.start 6000, adaptive.end 12000 }
|
|
set limit states 10000
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
With 9000 state table entries, the timeout values are scaled to 50%
|
|
(tcp.first 60, tcp.established 43200).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ar set loginterface
|
|
Enable collection of packet and byte count statistics for the given interface.
|
|
These statistics can be viewed using
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
# pfctl -s info
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In this example
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
collects statistics on the interface named dc0:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
set loginterface dc0
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
One can disable the loginterface using:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
set loginterface none
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ar set limit
|
|
Sets hard limits on the memory pools used by the packet filter.
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr zone 9
|
|
for an explanation of memory pools.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example,
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
set limit states 20000
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
sets the maximum number of entries in the memory pool used by state table
|
|
entries (generated by
|
|
.Ar keep state
|
|
rules) to 20000.
|
|
Using
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
set limit frags 20000
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
sets the maximum number of entries in the memory pool used for fragment
|
|
reassembly (generated by
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
rules) to 20000.
|
|
Finally,
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
set limit src-nodes 2000
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
sets the maximum number of entries in the memory pool used for tracking
|
|
source IP addresses (generated by the
|
|
.Ar sticky-address
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar source-track
|
|
options) to 2000.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
These can be combined:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
set limit { states 20000, frags 20000, src-nodes 2000 }
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ar set optimization
|
|
Optimize the engine for one of the following network environments:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar normal
|
|
A normal network environment.
|
|
Suitable for almost all networks.
|
|
.It Ar high-latency
|
|
A high-latency environment (such as a satellite connection).
|
|
.It Ar satellite
|
|
Alias for
|
|
.Ar high-latency .
|
|
.It Ar aggressive
|
|
Aggressively expire connections.
|
|
This can greatly reduce the memory usage of the firewall at the cost of
|
|
dropping idle connections early.
|
|
.It Ar conservative
|
|
Extremely conservative settings.
|
|
Avoid dropping legitimate connections at the
|
|
expense of greater memory utilization (possibly much greater on a busy
|
|
network) and slightly increased processor utilization.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
set optimization aggressive
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ar set block-policy
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar block-policy
|
|
option sets the default behaviour for the packet
|
|
.Ar block
|
|
action:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar drop
|
|
Packet is silently dropped.
|
|
.It Ar return
|
|
A TCP RST is returned for blocked TCP packets,
|
|
an ICMP UNREACHABLE is returned for blocked UDP packets,
|
|
and all other packets are silently dropped.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
set block-policy return
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It Ar set state-policy
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar state-policy
|
|
option sets the default behaviour for states:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width group-bound -compact
|
|
.It Ar if-bound
|
|
States are bound to interface.
|
|
.It Ar group-bound
|
|
States are bound to interface group (i.e. ppp)
|
|
.It Ar floating
|
|
States can match packets on any interfaces (the default).
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
set state-policy if-bound
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It Ar set require-order
|
|
By default
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8
|
|
enforces an ordering of the statement types in the ruleset to:
|
|
.Em options ,
|
|
.Em normalization ,
|
|
.Em queueing ,
|
|
.Em translation ,
|
|
.Em filtering .
|
|
Setting this option to
|
|
.Ar no
|
|
disables this enforcement.
|
|
There may be non-trivial and non-obvious implications to an out of
|
|
order ruleset.
|
|
Consider carefully before disabling the order enforcement.
|
|
.It Ar set fingerprints
|
|
Load fingerprints of known operating systems from the given filename.
|
|
By default fingerprints of known operating systems are automatically
|
|
loaded from
|
|
.Xr pf.os 5
|
|
in
|
|
.Pa /etc
|
|
but can be overridden via this option.
|
|
Setting this option may leave a small period of time where the fingerprints
|
|
referenced by the currently active ruleset are inconsistent until the new
|
|
ruleset finishes loading.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl set fingerprints \&"/etc/pf.os.devel\&"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ar set skip on <ifspec>
|
|
List interfaces for which packets should not be filtered.
|
|
Packets passing in or out on such interfaces are passed as if pf was
|
|
disabled, i.e. pf does not process them in any way.
|
|
This can be useful on loopback and other virtual interfaces, when
|
|
packet filtering is not desired and can have unexpected effects.
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl set skip on lo0
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ar set debug
|
|
Set the debug
|
|
.Ar level
|
|
to one of the following:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar none
|
|
Don't generate debug messages.
|
|
.It Ar urgent
|
|
Generate debug messages only for serious errors.
|
|
.It Ar misc
|
|
Generate debug messages for various errors.
|
|
.It Ar loud
|
|
Generate debug messages for common conditions.
|
|
.El
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh TRAFFIC NORMALIZATION
|
|
Traffic normalization is used to sanitize packet content in such
|
|
a way that there are no ambiguities in packet interpretation on
|
|
the receiving side.
|
|
The normalizer does IP fragment reassembly to prevent attacks
|
|
that confuse intrusion detection systems by sending overlapping
|
|
IP fragments.
|
|
Packet normalization is invoked with the
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
directive.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
has the following options:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|
|
.It Ar no-df
|
|
Clears the
|
|
.Ar dont-fragment
|
|
bit from a matching IP packet.
|
|
Some operating systems are known to generate fragmented packets with the
|
|
.Ar dont-fragment
|
|
bit set.
|
|
This is particularly true with NFS.
|
|
.Ar Scrub
|
|
will drop such fragmented
|
|
.Ar dont-fragment
|
|
packets unless
|
|
.Ar no-df
|
|
is specified.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Unfortunately some operating systems also generate their
|
|
.Ar dont-fragment
|
|
packets with a zero IP identification field.
|
|
Clearing the
|
|
.Ar dont-fragment
|
|
bit on packets with a zero IP ID may cause deleterious results if an
|
|
upstream router later fragments the packet.
|
|
Using the
|
|
.Ar random-id
|
|
modifier (see below) is recommended in combination with the
|
|
.Ar no-df
|
|
modifier to ensure unique IP identifiers.
|
|
.It Ar min-ttl <number>
|
|
Enforces a minimum TTL for matching IP packets.
|
|
.It Ar max-mss <number>
|
|
Enforces a maximum MSS for matching TCP packets.
|
|
.It Ar random-id
|
|
Replaces the IP identification field with random values to compensate
|
|
for predictable values generated by many hosts.
|
|
This option only applies to packets that are not fragmented
|
|
after the optional fragment reassembly.
|
|
.It Ar fragment reassemble
|
|
Using
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
rules, fragments can be reassembled by normalization.
|
|
In this case, fragments are buffered until they form a complete
|
|
packet, and only the completed packet is passed on to the filter.
|
|
The advantage is that filter rules have to deal only with complete
|
|
packets, and can ignore fragments.
|
|
The drawback of caching fragments is the additional memory cost.
|
|
But the full reassembly method is the only method that currently works
|
|
with NAT.
|
|
This is the default behavior of a
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
rule if no fragmentation modifier is supplied.
|
|
.It Ar fragment crop
|
|
The default fragment reassembly method is expensive, hence the option
|
|
to crop is provided.
|
|
In this case,
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
will track the fragments and cache a small range descriptor.
|
|
Duplicate fragments are dropped and overlaps are cropped.
|
|
Thus data will only occur once on the wire with ambiguities resolving to
|
|
the first occurrence.
|
|
Unlike the
|
|
.Ar fragment reassemble
|
|
modifier, fragments are not buffered, they are passed as soon as they
|
|
are received.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar fragment crop
|
|
reassembly mechanism does not yet work with NAT.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.It Ar fragment drop-ovl
|
|
This option is similar to the
|
|
.Ar fragment crop
|
|
modifier except that all overlapping or duplicate fragments will be
|
|
dropped, and all further corresponding fragments will be
|
|
dropped as well.
|
|
.It Ar reassemble tcp
|
|
Statefully normalizes TCP connections.
|
|
.Ar scrub reassemble tcp
|
|
rules may not have the direction (in/out) specified.
|
|
.Ar reassemble tcp
|
|
performs the following normalizations:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width timeout -compact
|
|
.It ttl
|
|
Neither side of the connection is allowed to reduce their IP TTL.
|
|
An attacker may send a packet such that it reaches the firewall, affects
|
|
the firewall state, and expires before reaching the destination host.
|
|
.Ar reassemble tcp
|
|
will raise the TTL of all packets back up to the highest value seen on
|
|
the connection.
|
|
.It timestamp modulation
|
|
Modern TCP stacks will send a timestamp on every TCP packet and echo
|
|
the other endpoint's timestamp back to them.
|
|
Many operating systems will merely start the timestamp at zero when
|
|
first booted, and increment it several times a second.
|
|
The uptime of the host can be deduced by reading the timestamp and multiplying
|
|
by a constant.
|
|
Also observing several different timestamps can be used to count hosts
|
|
behind a NAT device.
|
|
And spoofing TCP packets into a connection requires knowing or guessing
|
|
valid timestamps.
|
|
Timestamps merely need to be monotonically increasing and not derived off a
|
|
guessable base time.
|
|
.Ar reassemble tcp
|
|
will cause
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
to modulate the TCP timestamps with a random number.
|
|
.It extended PAWS checks
|
|
There is a problem with TCP on long fat pipes, in that a packet might get
|
|
delayed for longer than it takes the connection to wrap its 32-bit sequence
|
|
space.
|
|
In such an occurrence, the old packet would be indistinguishable from a
|
|
new packet and would be accepted as such.
|
|
The solution to this is called PAWS: Protection Against Wrapped Sequence
|
|
numbers.
|
|
It protects against it by making sure the timestamp on each packet does
|
|
not go backwards.
|
|
.Ar reassemble tcp
|
|
also makes sure the timestamp on the packet does not go forward more
|
|
than the RFC allows.
|
|
By doing this,
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
artificially extends the security of TCP sequence numbers by 10 to 18
|
|
bits when the host uses appropriately randomized timestamps, since a
|
|
blind attacker would have to guess the timestamp as well.

.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar no
|
|
option prefixed to a scrub rule causes matching packets to remain unscrubbed,
|
|
much in the same way as
|
|
.Ar drop quick
|
|
works in the packet filter (see below).
|
|
This mechanism should be used when it is necessary to exclude specific packets
|
|
from broader scrub rules.
|
|
.Sh QUEUEING/ALTQ
|
|
The ALTQ system is currently not available in the GENERIC kernel nor as
|
|
loadable modules.
|
|
In order to use the herein after called queueing options one has to use a
|
|
custom built kernel.
|
|
Please refer to
|
|
.Xr altq 4
|
|
to learn about the related kernel options.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Packets can be assigned to queues for the purpose of bandwidth
|
|
control.
|
|
At least two declarations are required to configure queues, and later
|
|
any packet filtering rule can reference the defined queues by name.
|
|
During the filtering component of
|
|
.Nm pf.conf ,
|
|
the last referenced
|
|
.Ar queue
|
|
name is where any packets from
|
|
.Ar pass
|
|
rules will be queued, while for
|
|
.Ar block
|
|
rules it specifies where any resulting ICMP or TCP RST
|
|
packets should be queued.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar scheduler
|
|
defines the algorithm used to decide which packets get delayed, dropped, or
|
|
sent out immediately.
|
|
There are three
|
|
.Ar schedulers
|
|
currently supported.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx

|
can have further child
|
|
.Ar queues .
|
|
Each queue can have a
|
|
.Ar priority
|
|
and a
|
|
.Ar bandwidth
|
|
assigned.
|
|
.Ar Priority
|
|
mainly controls the time packets take to get sent out, while
|
|
.Ar bandwidth
|
|
has primarily effects on throughput.
|
|
.Ar cbq
|
|
achieves both partitioning and sharing of link bandwidth
|
|
by hierarchically structured classes.
|
|
Each class has its own
|
|
.Ar queue
|
|
and is assigned its share of
|
|
.Ar bandwidth .
|
|
A child class can borrow bandwidth from its parent class
|
|
as long as excess bandwidth is available
|
|
(see the option
|
|
.Ar borrow ,
|
|
below).
|
|
.It Ar priq
|
|
Priority Queueing.
|
|
.Ar Queues
|
|
are flat attached to the interface, thus,
|
|
.Ar queues
|
|
cannot have further child
|
|
.Ar queues .
|
|
Each
|
|
.Ar queue
|
|
has a unique
|
|
.Ar priority
|
|
assigned, ranging from 0 to 15.
|

Packets in the

The interfaces on which queueing should be activated are declared using
|
|
the
|
|
.Ar altq on
|
|
declaration.
|
|
.Ar altq on
|
|
has the following keywords:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|
|
.It Ar <interface>
|
|
Queueing is enabled on the named interface.
|

.It Ar <scheduler>
|

for Class Based Queueing,
|
|
.Ar priq
|
|
for Priority Queueing and
|
|
.Ar hfsc
|
|
for the Hierarchical Fair Service Curve scheduler.
|
|
.It Ar bandwidth <bw>
|
|
The maximum bitrate for all queues on an
|
|
interface may be specified using the
|
|
.Ar bandwidth
|
|
keyword.
|
|
The value can be specified as an absolute value or as a

When using an absolute value, the suffixes
|

The maximum number of packets held in the queue.
|

The default is 50.
|
|
.It Ar tbrsize <size>

Once interfaces are activated for queueing using the
|
|
.Ar altq
|
|
directive, a sequence of
|
|
.Ar queue
|
|
directives may be defined.
|
|
The name associated with a
|
|
.Ar queue
|
|
must match a queue defined in the

.Ar priq
|

|
|
declaration.
|

|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|

.It Ar on <interface>
|
|
Specifies the interface the queue operates on.
|
|
If not given, it operates on all matching interfaces.
|
|
.It Ar bandwidth <bw>
|
|
Specifies the maximum bitrate to be processed by the queue.
|
|
This value must not exceed the value of the parent
|
|
.Ar queue
|
|
and can be specified as an absolute value or a percentage of the parent
|
|
queue's bandwidth.
|
|
If not specified, defaults to 100% of the parent queue's bandwidth.

For
|
|
.Ar cbq

.Ar hfsc ,
|
|
the range is 0 to 7 and for
|

Packets not matched by another queue are assigned to this one.
|
|
Exactly one default queue is required.

Enable RED (Random Early Detection) on this queue.
|
|
RED drops packets with a probability proportional to the average
|
|
queue length.
|

.It Ar rio
|
|
Enables RIO on this queue.
|

The format for service curve specifications is
|
|
.Ar ( m1 , d , m2 ) .
|
|
.Ar m2
|
|
controls the bandwidth assigned to the queue.
|
|
.Ar m1
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar d
|
|
are optional and can be used to control the initial bandwidth assignment.
|
|
For the first
|
|
.Ar d
|

milliseconds the queue gets the bandwidth given as
|
|
.Ar m1 ,
|
|
afterwards the value given in
|
|
.Ar m2 .
|

Furthermore, with
|
|
.Ar cbq
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar hfsc ,
|
|
child queues can be specified as in an
|
|
.Ar altq
|

declaration, thus building a tree of queues using a part of
|
|
their parent's bandwidth.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Packets can be assigned to queues based on filter rules by using the
|
|
.Ar queue
|
|
keyword.
|
|
Normally only one
|
|
.Ar queue
|
|
is specified; when a second one is specified it will instead be used for
|
|
packets which have a
|
|
.Em TOS
|
|
of
|
|
.Em lowdelay
|
|
and for TCP ACKs with no data payload.

|
sessions get priority over bulk transfers like

.Sh TRANSLATION
|
|
Translation rules modify either the source or destination address of the
|
|
packets associated with a stateful connection.
|
|
A stateful connection is automatically created to track packets matching
|
|
such a rule as long as they are not blocked by the filtering section of
|
|
.Nm pf.conf .
|
|
The translation engine modifies the specified address and/or port in the
|
|
packet, recalculates IP, TCP and UDP checksums as necessary, and passes it to
|
|
the packet filter for evaluation.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Since translation occurs before filtering the filter
|
|
engine will see packets as they look after any
|
|
addresses and ports have been translated.
|
|
Filter rules will therefore have to filter based on the translated
|
|
address and port number.
|
|
Packets that match a translation rule are only automatically passed if
|
|
the
|
|
.Ar pass
|
|
modifier is given, otherwise they are
|
|
still subject to
|
|
.Ar block
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar pass
|
|
rules.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The state entry created permits
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
to keep track of the original address for traffic associated with that state
|
|
and correctly direct return traffic for that connection.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Various types of translation are possible with pf:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|
|
.It Ar binat
|
|
A
|
|
.Ar binat
|
|
rule specifies a bidirectional mapping between an external IP netblock
|
|
and an internal IP netblock.
|
|
.It Ar nat
|
|
A
|
|
.Ar nat
|
|
rule specifies that IP addresses are to be changed as the packet
|
|
traverses the given interface.
|
|
This technique allows one or more IP addresses
|
|
on the translating host to support network traffic for a larger range of
|
|
machines on an "inside" network.
|
|
Although in theory any IP address can be used on the inside, it is strongly
|
|
recommended that one of the address ranges defined by RFC 1918 be used.
|
|
These netblocks are:
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
10.0.0.0 - 10.255.255.255 (all of net 10, i.e., 10/8)
|
|
172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 (i.e., 172.16/12)
|
|
192.168.0.0 - 192.168.255.255 (i.e., 192.168/16)
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It Pa rdr
|
|
The packet is redirected to another destination and possibly a
|
|
different port.
|
|
.Ar rdr
|
|
rules can optionally specify port ranges instead of single ports.
|
|
rdr ... port 2000:2999 -> ... port 4000
|
|
redirects ports 2000 to 2999 (inclusive) to port 4000.
|
|
rdr ... port 2000:2999 -> ... port 4000:*
|
|
redirects port 2000 to 4000, 2001 to 4001, ..., 2999 to 4999.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In addition to modifying the address, some translation rules may modify
|
|
source or destination ports for
|
|
.Xr tcp 4
|
|
or
|
|
.Xr udp 4
|
|
connections; implicitly in the case of
|
|
.Ar nat
|
|
rules and explicitly in the case of
|
|
.Ar rdr
|
|
rules.
|
|
Port numbers are never translated with a
|
|
.Ar binat
|
|
rule.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For each packet processed by the translator, the translation rules are
|
|
evaluated in sequential order, from first to last.
|
|
The first matching rule decides what action is taken.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar no
|
|
option prefixed to a translation rule causes packets to remain untranslated,
|
|
much in the same way as
|
|
.Ar drop quick
|
|
works in the packet filter (see below).
|
|
If no rule matches the packet it is passed to the filter engine unmodified.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Translation rules apply only to packets that pass through
|
|
the specified interface, and if no interface is specified,
|
|
translation is applied to packets on all interfaces.
|
|
For instance, redirecting port 80 on an external interface to an internal
|
|
web server will only work for connections originating from the outside.
|
|
Connections to the address of the external interface from local hosts will
|
|
not be redirected, since such packets do not actually pass through the
|
|
external interface.
|
|
Redirections cannot reflect packets back through the interface they arrive
|
|
on, they can only be redirected to hosts connected to different interfaces
|
|
or to the firewall itself.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Note that redirecting external incoming connections to the loopback
|

bound solely to the loopback address, circumventing the traditional

blocking of such connections on a real interface.
|
|
Unless this effect is desired, any of the local non-loopback addresses
|
|
should be used as redirection target instead, which allows external
|
|
connections only to daemons bound to this address or not bound to
|
|
any address.

|
|
.Sh PACKET FILTERING
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
has the ability to
|
|
.Ar block
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar pass
|
|
packets based on attributes of their layer 3 (see
|
|
.Xr ip 4
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr ip6 4 )
|
|
and layer 4 (see
|
|
.Xr icmp 4 ,
|
|
.Xr icmp6 4 ,
|
|
.Xr tcp 4 ,
|
|
.Xr udp 4 )
|
|
headers.
|
|
In addition, packets may also be
|
|
assigned to queues for the purpose of bandwidth control.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For each packet processed by the packet filter, the filter rules are
|
|
evaluated in sequential order, from first to last.
|
|
The last matching rule decides what action is taken.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following actions can be used in the filter:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|
|
.It Ar block
|
|
The packet is blocked.
|
|
There are a number of ways in which a
|
|
.Ar block
|
|
rule can behave when blocking a packet.
|
|
The default behaviour is to
|
|
.Ar drop
|
|
packets silently, however this can be overridden or made
|
|
explicit either globally, by setting the
|
|
.Ar block-policy
|
|
option, or on a per-rule basis with one of the following options:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar drop
|
|
The packet is silently dropped.
|
|
.It Ar return-rst
|
|
This applies only to
|
|
.Xr tcp 4
|
|
packets, and issues a TCP RST which closes the
|
|
connection.
|
|
.It Ar return-icmp
|
|
.It Ar return-icmp6
|
|
This causes ICMP messages to be returned for packets which match the rule.
|
|
By default this is an ICMP UNREACHABLE message, however this
|
|
can be overridden by specifying a message as a code or number.
|
|
.It Ar return
|
|
This causes a TCP RST to be returned for
|
|
.Xr tcp 4
|
|
packets and an ICMP UNREACHABLE for UDP and other packets.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Options returning ICMP packets currently have no effect if
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
operates on a
|
|
.Xr if_bridge 4 ,
|
|
as the code to support this feature has not yet been implemented.
|
|
.It Ar pass
|
|
The packet is passed.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If no rule matches the packet, the default action is
|
|
.Ar pass .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
To block everything by default and only pass packets
|
|
that match explicit rules, one uses
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
block all
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
as the first filter rule.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
See
|
|
.Sx FILTER EXAMPLES
|
|
below.
|
|
.Sh PARAMETERS
|
|
The rule parameters specify the packets to which a rule applies.
|
|
A packet always comes in on, or goes out through, one interface.
|
|
Most parameters are optional.
|
|
If a parameter is specified, the rule only applies to packets with
|
|
matching attributes.
|
|
Certain parameters can be expressed as lists, in which case
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8
|
|
generates all needed rule combinations.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|
|
.It Ar in No or Ar out
|
|
This rule applies to incoming or outgoing packets.
|
|
If neither
|
|
.Ar in
|
|
nor
|
|
.Ar out
|
|
are specified, the rule will match packets in both directions.
|
|
.It Ar log
|
|
In addition to the action specified, a log message is generated.
|
|
All packets for that connection are logged, unless the
|
|
.Ar keep state ,
|
|
.Ar modulate state
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar synproxy state
|
|
options are specified, in which case only the
|
|
packet that establishes the state is logged.
|
|
(See
|
|
.Ar keep state ,
|
|
.Ar modulate state
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar synproxy state
|
|
below).
|
|
The logged packets are sent to the
|
|
.Xr pflog 4
|
|
interface.
|
|
This interface is monitored by the
|
|
.Xr pflogd 8
|
|
logging daemon, which dumps the logged packets to the file
|
|
.Pa /var/log/pflog
|
|
in
|
|
.Xr pcap 3
|
|
binary format.
|
|
.It Ar log-all
|
|
Used with
|
|
.Ar keep state ,
|
|
.Ar modulate state
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar synproxy state
|
|
rules to force logging of all packets for a connection.
|
|
As with
|
|
.Ar log ,
|
|
packets are logged to
|
|
.Xr pflog 4 .
|
|
.It Ar quick
|
|
If a packet matches a rule which has the
|
|
.Ar quick
|
|
option set, this rule
|
|
is considered the last matching rule, and evaluation of subsequent rules
|
|
is skipped.
|
|
.It Ar on <interface>
|
|
This rule applies only to packets coming in on, or going out through, this
|
|
particular interface.
|
|
It is also possible to simply give the interface driver name, like ppp or fxp,
|
|
to make the rule match packets flowing through a group of interfaces.
|
|
.It Ar <af>
|
|
This rule applies only to packets of this address family.
|
|
Supported values are
|
|
.Ar inet
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar inet6 .
|
|
.It Ar proto <protocol>
|
|
This rule applies only to packets of this protocol.
|
|
Common protocols are
|
|
.Xr icmp 4 ,
|
|
.Xr icmp6 4 ,
|
|
.Xr tcp 4 ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr udp 4 .
|
|
For a list of all the protocol name to number mappings used by
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8 ,

|
|
.Em /etc/protocols .
|
|
.It Xo
|
|
.Ar from <source> port <source> os <source>
|
|
.Ar to <dest> port <dest>
|
|
.Xc
|
|
This rule applies only to packets with the specified source and destination
|
|
addresses and ports.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Addresses can be specified in CIDR notation (matching netblocks), as
|
|
symbolic host names or interface names, or as any of the following keywords:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar any
|
|
Any address.
|
|
.It Ar route <label>
|
|
Any address whose associated route has label
|
|
.Ar <label> .
|
|
See
|
|
.Xr route 4
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr route 8 .
|
|
.It Ar no-route
|
|
Any address which is not currently routable.
|
|
.It Ar <table>
|
|
Any address that matches the given table.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Interface names can have modifiers appended:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxxxxxxxxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar :network
|
|
Translates to the network(s) attached to the interface.
|
|
.It Ar :broadcast
|
|
Translates to the interface's broadcast address(es).
|
|
.It Ar :peer
|
|
Translates to the point to point interface's peer address(es).
|
|
.It Ar :0
|
|
Do not include interface aliases.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Host names may also have the
|
|
.Ar :0
|
|
option appended to restrict the name resolution to the first of each
|
|
v4 and v6 address found.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Host name resolution and interface to address translation are done at
|
|
ruleset load-time.
|
|
When the address of an interface (or host name) changes (under DHCP or PPP,
|
|
for instance), the ruleset must be reloaded for the change to be reflected
|
|
in the kernel.
|
|
Surrounding the interface name (and optional modifiers) in parentheses
|
|
changes this behaviour.
|
|
When the interface name is surrounded by parentheses, the rule is
|
|
automatically updated whenever the interface changes its address.
|
|
The ruleset does not need to be reloaded.
|
|
This is especially useful with
|
|
.Ar nat .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Ports can be specified either by number or by name.
|
|
For example, port 80 can be specified as
|
|
.Em www .
|
|
For a list of all port name to number mappings used by
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8 ,
|
|
see the file
|
|
.Pa /etc/services .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Ports and ranges of ports are specified by using these operators:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
= (equal)
|
|
!= (unequal)
|
|
< (less than)
|
|
<= (less than or equal)
|
|
> (greater than)
|
|
>= (greater than or equal)
|
|
: (range including boundaries)
|
|
>< (range excluding boundaries)
|
|
<> (except range)
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
><, <> and :
|
|
are binary operators (they take two arguments).
|
|
For instance:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Fl
|
|
.It Ar port 2000:2004
|
|
means
|
|
.Sq all ports >= 2000 and <= 2004 ,
|
|
hence ports 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003 and 2004.
|
|
.It Ar port 2000 >< 2004
|
|
means
|
|
.Sq all ports > 2000 and < 2004 ,
|
|
hence ports 2001, 2002 and 2003.
|
|
.It Ar port 2000 <> 2004
|
|
means
|
|
.Sq all ports < 2000 or > 2004 ,
|
|
hence ports 1-1999 and 2005-65535.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The operating system of the source host can be specified in the case of TCP
|
|
rules with the
|
|
.Ar OS
|
|
modifier.
|
|
See the
|
|
.Sx OPERATING SYSTEM FINGERPRINTING
|
|
section for more information.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The host, port and OS specifications are optional, as in the following examples:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
pass in all
|
|
pass in from any to any
|
|
pass in proto tcp from any port <= 1024 to any
|
|
pass in proto tcp from any to any port 25
|
|
pass in proto tcp from 10.0.0.0/8 port > 1024 \e
|
|
to ! 10.1.2.3 port != ssh
|
|
pass in proto tcp from any os "OpenBSD" flags S/SA
|
|
pass in proto tcp from route "DTAG"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It Ar all
|
|
This is equivalent to "from any to any".
|
|
.It Ar group <group>
|
|
Similar to
|
|
.Ar user ,
|
|
this rule only applies to packets of sockets owned by the specified group.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The use of
|
|
.Ar group
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar user
|
|
in
|
|
.Va debug.mpsafenet Ns = Ns 1
|
|
environments may result in a deadlock.
|
|
Please see the
|
|
.Sx BUGS
|
|
section for details.
|
|
.It Ar user <user>
|
|
This rule only applies to packets of sockets owned by the specified user.
|
|
For outgoing connections initiated from the firewall, this is the user
|
|
that opened the connection.
|
|
For incoming connections to the firewall itself, this is the user that
|
|
listens on the destination port.
|
|
For forwarded connections, where the firewall is not a connection endpoint,
|
|
the user and group are
|
|
.Em unknown .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
All packets, both outgoing and incoming, of one connection are associated
|
|
with the same user and group.
|
|
Only TCP and UDP packets can be associated with users; for other protocols
|
|
these parameters are ignored.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
User and group refer to the effective (as opposed to the real) IDs, in
|
|
case the socket is created by a setuid/setgid process.
|
|
User and group IDs are stored when a socket is created;
|
|
when a process creates a listening socket as root (for instance, by
|
|
binding to a privileged port) and subsequently changes to another
|
|
user ID (to drop privileges), the credentials will remain root.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
User and group IDs can be specified as either numbers or names.
|
|
The syntax is similar to the one for ports.
|
|
The value
|
|
.Em unknown
|
|
matches packets of forwarded connections.
|
|
.Em unknown
|
|
can only be used with the operators
|
|
.Cm =
|
|
and
|
|
.Cm != .
|
|
Other constructs like
|
|
.Cm user >= unknown
|
|
are invalid.
|
|
Forwarded packets with unknown user and group ID match only rules
|
|
that explicitly compare against
|
|
.Em unknown
|
|
with the operators
|
|
.Cm =
|
|
or
|
|
.Cm != .
|
|
For instance
|
|
.Cm user >= 0
|
|
does not match forwarded packets.
|
|
The following example allows only selected users to open outgoing
|
|
connections:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
block out proto { tcp, udp } all
|
|
pass out proto { tcp, udp } all \e
|
|
user { < 1000, dhartmei } keep state
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It Ar flags <a>/<b> | /<b>
|
|
This rule only applies to TCP packets that have the flags
|
|
.Ar <a>
|
|
set out of set
|
|
.Ar <b> .
|
|
Flags not specified in
|
|
.Ar <b>
|
|
are ignored.
|
|
The flags are: (F)IN, (S)YN, (R)ST, (P)USH, (A)CK, (U)RG, (E)CE, and C(W)R.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Fl
|
|
.It Ar flags S/S
|
|
Flag SYN is set.
|
|
The other flags are ignored.
|
|
.It Ar flags S/SA
|
|
Out of SYN and ACK, exactly SYN may be set.
|
|
SYN, SYN+PSH and SYN+RST match, but SYN+ACK, ACK and ACK+RST do not.
|
|
This is more restrictive than the previous example.
|
|
.It Ar flags /SFRA
|
|
If the first set is not specified, it defaults to none.
|
|
All of SYN, FIN, RST and ACK must be unset.
|
|
.El
|
|
.It Ar icmp-type <type> code <code>
|
|
.It Ar icmp6-type <type> code <code>
|
|
This rule only applies to ICMP or ICMPv6 packets with the specified type
|
|
and code.
|
|
Text names for ICMP types and codes are listed in
|
|
.Xr icmp 4
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr icmp6 4 .
|
|
This parameter is only valid for rules that cover protocols ICMP or
|
|
ICMP6.

|
|
.Po

|
.Ar icmp-type
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar icmp6-type

.Pc
|
|
must match.
|
|
.It Ar allow-opts
|
|
By default, IPv4 packets with IP options or IPv6 packets with routing
|
|
extension headers are blocked.
|
|
When
|
|
.Ar allow-opts
|
|
is specified for a
|
|
.Ar pass
|
|
rule, packets that pass the filter based on that rule (last matching)
|
|
do so even if they contain IP options or routing extension headers.
|
|
For packets that match state, the rule that initially created the
|
|
state is used.
|
|
The implicit
|
|
.Ar pass
|
|
rule that is used when a packet does not match any rules does not
|
|
allow IP options.
|
|
.It Ar label <string>
|
|
Adds a label (name) to the rule, which can be used to identify the rule.
|
|
For instance,
|
|
pfctl -s labels
|
|
shows per-rule statistics for rules that have labels.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following macros can be used in labels:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width $srcaddr -compact -offset indent
|
|
.It Ar $if
|
|
The interface.
|
|
.It Ar $srcaddr
|
|
The source IP address.
|
|
.It Ar $dstaddr
|
|
The destination IP address.
|
|
.It Ar $srcport
|
|
The source port specification.
|
|
.It Ar $dstport
|
|
The destination port specification.
|
|
.It Ar $proto
|
|
The protocol name.
|
|
.It Ar $nr
|
|
The rule number.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
ips = \&"{ 1.2.3.4, 1.2.3.5 }\&"
|
|
pass in proto tcp from any to $ips \e

|
port > 1023 label \&"$dstaddr:$dstport\&"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|

expands to
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
pass in inet proto tcp from any to 1.2.3.4 \e
|
|
port > 1023 label \&"1.2.3.4:>1023\&"
|
|
pass in inet proto tcp from any to 1.2.3.5 \e
|
|
port > 1023 label \&"1.2.3.5:>1023\&"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The macro expansion for the
|
|
.Ar label
|
|
directive occurs only at configuration file parse time, not during runtime.
|
|
.It Ar queue <queue> | ( <queue> , <queue> )
|
|
Packets matching this rule will be assigned to the specified queue.
|
|
If two queues are given, packets which have a
|
|
.Em tos
|
|
of
|
|
.Em lowdelay
|
|
and TCP ACKs with no data payload will be assigned to the second one.
|
|
See
|
|
.Sx QUEUEING/ALTQ
|
|
for setup details.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
pass in proto tcp to port 25 queue mail
|
|
pass in proto tcp to port 22 queue(ssh_bulk, ssh_prio)
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.It Ar tag <string>
|
|
Packets matching this rule will be tagged with the
|
|
specified string.
|
|
The tag acts as an internal marker that can be used to
|
|
identify these packets later on.
|
|
This can be used, for example, to provide trust between
|
|
interfaces and to determine if packets have been
|
|
processed by translation rules.
|
|
Tags are
|
|
.Qq sticky ,
|
|
meaning that the packet will be tagged even if the rule
|
|
is not the last matching rule.
|
|
Further matching rules can replace the tag with a
|
|
new one but will not remove a previously applied tag.
|
|
A packet is only ever assigned one tag at a time.
|
|
.Ar pass
|
|
rules that use the
|
|
.Ar tag
|
|
keyword must also use
|
|
.Ar keep state ,
|
|
.Ar modulate state
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar synproxy state .
|
|
Packet tagging can be done during
|
|
.Ar nat ,
|
|
.Ar rdr ,
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar binat
|
|
rules in addition to filter rules.
|
|
Tags take the same macros as labels (see above).
|
|
.It Ar tagged <string>
|
|
Used with filter or translation rules to specify that packets must already
|
|
be tagged with the given tag in order to match the rule.
|
|
Inverse tag matching can also be done
|
|
by specifying the
|
|
.Cm !\&
|
|
operator before the
|
|
.Ar tagged
|
|
keyword.
|
|
.It Ar probability <number>
|
|
A probability attribute can be attached to a rule, with a value set between
|
|
0 and 1, bounds not included.
|
|
In that case, the rule will be honoured using the given probability value
|
|
only.
|
|
For example, the following rule will drop 20% of incoming ICMP packets:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
block in proto icmp probability 20%
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh ROUTING
|
|
If a packet matches a rule with a route option set, the packet filter will
|
|
route the packet according to the type of route option.
|
|
When such a rule creates state, the route option is also applied to all
|
|
packets matching the same connection.
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|
|
.It Ar fastroute
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar fastroute
|
|
option does a normal route lookup to find the next hop for the packet.
|
|
.It Ar route-to
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar route-to
|
|
option routes the packet to the specified interface with an optional address
|
|
for the next hop.
|
|
When a
|
|
.Ar route-to
|
|
rule creates state, only packets that pass in the same direction as the
|
|
filter rule specifies will be routed in this way.
|
|
Packets passing in the opposite direction (replies) are not affected
|
|
and are routed normally.
|
|
.It Ar reply-to
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar reply-to
|
|
option is similar to
|
|
.Ar route-to ,
|
|
but routes packets that pass in the opposite direction (replies) to the
|
|
specified interface.
|
|
Opposite direction is only defined in the context of a state entry, and
|
|
.Ar reply-to
|
|
is useful only in rules that create state.
|
|
It can be used on systems with multiple external connections to
|
|
route all outgoing packets of a connection through the interface
|
|
the incoming connection arrived through (symmetric routing enforcement).
|
|
.It Ar dup-to
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar dup-to
|
|
option creates a duplicate of the packet and routes it like
|
|
.Ar route-to .
|
|
The original packet gets routed as it normally would.

subnet mask smaller than 32 for IPv4 or 128 for IPv6 (more than one IP
|
|
address), a variety of different methods for assigning this address can be
|
|
used:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|
|
.It Ar bitmask
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar bitmask
|
|
option applies the network portion of the redirection address to the address
|
|
to be modified (source with
|
|
.Ar nat ,
|
|
destination with
|
|
.Ar rdr ) .
|
|
.It Ar random
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar random
|
|
option selects an address at random within the defined block of addresses.
|
|
.It Ar source-hash
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar source-hash
|
|
option uses a hash of the source address to determine the redirection address,
|
|
ensuring that the redirection address is always the same for a given source.
|
|
An optional key can be specified after this keyword either in hex or as a
|
|
string; by default
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8
|
|
randomly generates a key for source-hash every time the
|
|
ruleset is reloaded.
|
|
.It Ar round-robin
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar round-robin
|
|
option loops through the redirection address(es).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When more than one redirection address is specified,
|
|
.Ar round-robin
|
|
is the only permitted pool type.
|
|
.It Ar static-port
|
|
With
|
|
.Ar nat
|
|
rules, the
|
|
.Ar static-port
|
|
option prevents
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
from modifying the source port on TCP and UDP packets.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Additionally, the
|
|
.Ar sticky-address
|
|
option can be specified to help ensure that multiple connections from the
|
|
same source are mapped to the same redirection address.
|
|
This option can be used with the
|
|
.Ar random
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar round-robin
|
|
pool options.
|
|
Note that by default these associations are destroyed as soon as there are
|
|
no longer states which refer to them; in order to make the mappings last
|
|
beyond the lifetime of the states, increase the global options with
|
|
.Ar set timeout source-track
|
|
See
|
|
.Sx STATEFUL TRACKING OPTIONS
|
|
for more ways to control the source tracking.
|
|
.Sh STATEFUL INSPECTION
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
is a stateful packet filter, which means it can track the state of
|
|
a connection.
|
|
Instead of passing all traffic to port 25, for instance, it is possible
|
|
to pass only the initial packet, and then begin to keep state.
|
|
Subsequent traffic will flow because the filter is aware of the connection.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If a packet matches a
|
|
.Ar pass ... keep state
|
|
rule, the filter creates a state for this connection and automatically
|
|
lets pass all subsequent packets of that connection.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Before any rules are evaluated, the filter checks whether the packet
|
|
matches any state.
|
|
If it does, the packet is passed without evaluation of any rules.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
States are removed after the connection is closed or has timed out.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This has several advantages.
|
|
Comparing a packet to a state involves checking its sequence numbers.
|
|
If the sequence numbers are outside the narrow windows of expected
|
|
values, the packet is dropped.
|
|
This prevents spoofing attacks, such as when an attacker sends packets with
|
|
a fake source address/port but does not know the connection's sequence
|
|
numbers.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Also, looking up states is usually faster than evaluating rules.
|
|
If there are 50 rules, all of them are evaluated sequentially in O(n).
|
|
Even with 50000 states, only 16 comparisons are needed to match a
|
|
state, since states are stored in a binary search tree that allows
|
|
searches in O(log2 n).
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For instance:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
block all
|
|
pass out proto tcp from any to any flags S/SA keep state
|
|
pass in proto tcp from any to any port 25 flags S/SA keep state
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This ruleset blocks everything by default.
|
|
Only outgoing connections and incoming connections to port 25 are allowed.
|
|
The initial packet of each connection has the SYN
|
|
flag set, will be passed and creates state.
|
|
All further packets of these connections are passed if they match a state.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
By default, packets coming in and out of any interface can match a state,
|
|
but it is also possible to change that behaviour by assigning states to a
|
|
single interface or a group of interfaces.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The default policy is specified by the
|
|
.Ar state-policy
|
|
global option, but this can be adjusted on a per-rule basis by adding one
|
|
of the
|
|
.Ar if-bound ,
|
|
.Ar group-bound
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar floating
|
|
keywords to the
|
|
.Ar keep state
|
|
option.
|
|
For example, if a rule is defined as:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
pass out on ppp from any to 10.12/16 keep state (group-bound)
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A state created on ppp0 would match packets an all PPP interfaces,
|
|
but not packets flowing through fxp0 or any other interface.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Keeping rules
|
|
.Ar floating
|
|
is the more flexible option when the firewall is in a dynamic routing
|
|
environment.
|
|
However, this has some security implications since a state created by one
|
|
trusted network could allow potentially hostile packets coming in from other
|
|
interfaces.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Specifying
|
|
.Ar flags S/SA
|
|
restricts state creation to the initial SYN
|
|
packet of the TCP handshake.
|
|
One can also be less restrictive, and allow state creation from
|
|
intermediate
|
|
.Pq non-SYN
|
|
packets.
|
|
This will cause
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
to synchronize to existing connections, for instance
|
|
if one flushes the state table.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For UDP, which is stateless by nature,
|
|
.Ar keep state
|
|
will create state as well.
|
|
UDP packets are matched to states using only host addresses and ports.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
ICMP messages fall into two categories: ICMP error messages, which always
|
|
refer to a TCP or UDP packet, are matched against the referred to connection.
|
|
If one keeps state on a TCP connection, and an ICMP source quench message
|
|
referring to this TCP connection arrives, it will be matched to the right
|
|
state and get passed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For ICMP queries,
|
|
.Ar keep state
|
|
creates an ICMP state, and
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
knows how to match ICMP replies to states.
|
|
For example,
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
pass out inet proto icmp all icmp-type echoreq keep state
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
allows echo requests (such as those created by
|
|
.Xr ping 8 )
|
|
out, creates state, and matches incoming echo replies correctly to states.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Note:
|
|
.Ar nat , binat No and Ar rdr
|
|
rules implicitly create state for connections.
|
|
.Sh STATE MODULATION
|
|
Much of the security derived from TCP is attributable to how well the
|
|
initial sequence numbers (ISNs) are chosen.
|
|
Some popular stack implementations choose
|
|
.Em very
|
|
poor ISNs and thus are normally susceptible to ISN prediction exploits.
|
|
By applying a
|
|
.Ar modulate state
|
|
rule to a TCP connection,
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
will create a high quality random sequence number for each connection
|
|
endpoint.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar modulate state
|
|
directive implicitly keeps state on the rule and is
|
|
only applicable to TCP connections.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For instance:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
block all
|
|
pass out proto tcp from any to any modulate state
|
|
pass in proto tcp from any to any port 25 flags S/SA modulate state
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
There are two caveats associated with state modulation:
|
|
A
|
|
.Ar modulate state
|
|
rule can not be applied to a pre-existing but unmodulated connection.
|
|
Such an application would desynchronize TCP's strict
|
|
sequencing between the two endpoints.
|
|
Instead,
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
will treat the
|
|
.Ar modulate state
|
|
modifier as a
|
|
.Ar keep state
|
|
modifier and the pre-existing connection will be inferred without
|
|
the protection conferred by modulation.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The other caveat affects currently modulated states when the state table
|
|
is lost (firewall reboot, flushing the state table, etc...).
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
will not be able to infer a connection again after the state table flushes
|
|
the connection's modulator.
|
|
When the state is lost, the connection may be left dangling until the
|
|
respective endpoints time out the connection.
|
|
It is possible on a fast local network for the endpoints to start an ACK
|
|
storm while trying to resynchronize after the loss of the modulator.
|
|
Using a
|
|
.Ar flags S/SA
|
|
modifier on
|
|
.Ar modulate state
|
|
rules between fast networks is suggested to prevent ACK storms.
|
|
.Sh SYN PROXY
|
|
By default,
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
passes packets that are part of a
|
|
.Xr tcp 4
|
|
handshake between the endpoints.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar synproxy state
|
|
option can be used to cause
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
itself to complete the handshake with the active endpoint, perform a handshake
|
|
with the passive endpoint, and then forward packets between the endpoints.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
No packets are sent to the passive endpoint before the active endpoint has
|
|
completed the handshake, hence so-called SYN floods with spoofed source
|
|
addresses will not reach the passive endpoint, as the sender can't complete the
|
|
handshake.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The proxy is transparent to both endpoints, they each see a single
|
|
connection from/to the other endpoint.
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
chooses random initial sequence numbers for both handshakes.
|
|
Once the handshakes are completed, the sequence number modulators
|
|
(see previous section) are used to translate further packets of the
|
|
connection.
|
|
Hence,
|
|
.Ar synproxy state
|
|
includes
|
|
.Ar modulate state
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar keep state .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Rules with
|
|
.Ar synproxy
|
|
will not work if
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
operates on a
|
|
.Xr if_bridge 4 .

|

|
.Ar keep state ,

.Bl -tag -width xxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar max <number>
|
|
Limits the number of concurrent states the rule may create.

.Ed
|

keyword is specified, the number of states per source IP is tracked.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar source-track rule
|

The maximum number of states created by this rule is limited by the rule's

.Ar max-src-nodes
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar max-src-state
|
|
options.
|
|
Only state entries created by this particular rule count toward the rule's
|
|
limits.
|
|
.It Ar source-track global
|
|
The number of states created by all rules that use this option is limited.
|
|
Each rule can specify different
|
|
.Ar max-src-nodes
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar max-src-states
|
|
options, however state entries created by any participating rule count towards
|
|
each individual rule's limits.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following limits can be set:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar max-src-nodes <number>
|
|
Limits the maximum number of source addresses which can simultaneously
|
|
have state table entries.
|
|
.It Ar max-src-states <number>
|
|
Limits the maximum number of simultaneous state entries that a single
|
|
source address can create with this rule.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For stateful TCP connections, limits on established connections (connections
|
|
which have completed the TCP 3-way handshake) can also be enforced
|
|
per source IP.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx -compact
|
|
.It Ar max-src-conn <number>
|
|
Limits the maximum number of simultaneous TCP connections which have
|
|
completed the 3-way handshake that a single host can make.
|
|
.It Ar max-src-conn-rate <number> / <seconds>
|
|
Limit the rate of new connections over a time interval.
|
|
The connection rate is an approximation calculated as a moving average.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Because the 3-way handshake ensures that the source address is not being
|
|
spoofed, more aggressive action can be taken based on these limits.
|
|
With the
|
|
.Ar overload <table>
|
|
state option, source IP addresses which hit either of the limits on
|
|
established connections will be added to the named table.
|
|
This table can be used in the ruleset to block further activity from
|
|
the offending host, redirect it to a tarpit process, or restrict its
|
|
bandwidth.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The optional
|
|
.Ar flush
|
|
keyword kills all states created by the matching rule which originate
|
|
from the host which exceeds these limits.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar global
|
|
modifier to the flush command kills all states originating from the
|
|
offending host, regardless of which rule created the state.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example, the following rules will protect the webserver against
|
|
hosts making more than 100 connections in 10 seconds.
|
|
Any host which connects faster than this rate will have its address added
|
|
to the <bad_hosts> table and have all states originating from it flushed.
|
|
Any new packets arriving from this host will be dropped unconditionally
|
|
by the block rule.

.Sh OPERATING SYSTEM FINGERPRINTING
|
|
Passive OS Fingerprinting is a mechanism to inspect nuances of a TCP
|
|
connection's initial SYN packet and guess at the host's operating system.
|
|
Unfortunately these nuances are easily spoofed by an attacker so the
|
|
fingerprint is not useful in making security decisions.
|
|
But the fingerprint is typically accurate enough to make policy decisions
|
|
upon.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The fingerprints may be specified by operating system class, by
|
|
version, or by subtype/patchlevel.
|
|
The class of an operating system is typically the vendor or genre
|
|
and would be OpenBSD for the
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
firewall itself.
|
|
The version of the oldest available OpenBSD release on the main ftp site
|
|
would be 2.6 and the fingerprint would be written
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl \&"OpenBSD 2.6\&"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The subtype of an operating system is typically used to describe the
|
|
patchlevel if that patch led to changes in the TCP stack behavior.
|
|
In the case of OpenBSD, the only subtype is for a fingerprint that was
|
|
normalized by the
|
|
.Ar no-df
|
|
scrub option and would be specified as
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl \&"OpenBSD 3.3 no-df\&"
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Fingerprints for most popular operating systems are provided by
|
|
.Xr pf.os 5 .
|
|
Once
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
is running, a complete list of known operating system fingerprints may
|
|
be listed by running:
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Dl # pfctl -so
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Filter rules can enforce policy at any level of operating system specification
|
|
assuming a fingerprint is present.
|
|
Policy could limit traffic to approved operating systems or even ban traffic
|
|
from hosts that aren't at the latest service pack.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar unknown
|
|
class can also be used as the fingerprint which will match packets for
|
|
which no operating system fingerprint is known.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Examples:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
pass out proto tcp from any os OpenBSD keep state
|
|
block out proto tcp from any os Doors
|
|
block out proto tcp from any os "Doors PT"
|
|
block out proto tcp from any os "Doors PT SP3"
|
|
block out from any os "unknown"
|
|
pass on lo0 proto tcp from any os "OpenBSD 3.3 lo0" keep state
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Operating system fingerprinting is limited only to the TCP SYN packet.
|
|
This means that it will not work on other protocols and will not match
|
|
a currently established connection.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Caveat: operating system fingerprints are occasionally wrong.
|
|
There are three problems: an attacker can trivially craft his packets to
|
|
appear as any operating system he chooses;
|
|
an operating system patch could change the stack behavior and no fingerprints
|
|
will match it until the database is updated;
|
|
and multiple operating systems may have the same fingerprint.
|
|
.Sh BLOCKING SPOOFED TRAFFIC
|
|
"Spoofing" is the faking of IP addresses, typically for malicious
|
|
purposes.
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar antispoof
|
|
directive expands to a set of filter rules which will block all
|
|
traffic with a source IP from the network(s) directly connected
|
|
to the specified interface(s) from entering the system through
|
|
any other interface.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example, the line
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
antispoof for lo0
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
expands to
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
block drop in on ! lo0 inet from 127.0.0.1/8 to any
|
|
block drop in on ! lo0 inet6 from ::1 to any
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For non-loopback interfaces, there are additional rules to block incoming
|
|
packets with a source IP address identical to the interface's IP(s).
|
|
For example, assuming the interface wi0 had an IP address of 10.0.0.1 and a
|
|
netmask of 255.255.255.0,
|
|
the line
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
antispoof for wi0 inet
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
expands to
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
block drop in on ! wi0 inet from 10.0.0.0/24 to any
|
|
block drop in inet from 10.0.0.1 to any
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Caveat: Rules created by the
|
|
.Ar antispoof
|
|
directive interfere with packets sent over loopback interfaces
|
|
to local addresses.
|
|
One should pass these explicitly.
|
|
.Sh FRAGMENT HANDLING
|
|
The size of IP datagrams (packets) can be significantly larger than the
|
|
maximum transmission unit (MTU) of the network.
|
|
In cases when it is necessary or more efficient to send such large packets,
|
|
the large packet will be fragmented into many smaller packets that will each
|
|
fit onto the wire.
|
|
Unfortunately for a firewalling device, only the first logical fragment will
|
|
contain the necessary header information for the subprotocol that allows
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
to filter on things such as TCP ports or to perform NAT.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Besides the use of
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
rules as described in
|
|
.Sx TRAFFIC NORMALIZATION
|
|
above, there are three options for handling fragments in the packet filter.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
One alternative is to filter individual fragments with filter rules.
|
|
If no
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
rule applies to a fragment, it is passed to the filter.
|
|
Filter rules with matching IP header parameters decide whether the
|
|
fragment is passed or blocked, in the same way as complete packets
|
|
are filtered.
|
|
Without reassembly, fragments can only be filtered based on IP header
|
|
fields (source/destination address, protocol), since subprotocol header
|
|
fields are not available (TCP/UDP port numbers, ICMP code/type).
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar fragment
|
|
option can be used to restrict filter rules to apply only to
|
|
fragments, but not complete packets.
|
|
Filter rules without the
|
|
.Ar fragment
|
|
option still apply to fragments, if they only specify IP header fields.
|
|
For instance, the rule
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
pass in proto tcp from any to any port 80
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
never applies to a fragment, even if the fragment is part of a TCP
|
|
packet with destination port 80, because without reassembly this information
|
|
is not available for each fragment.
|
|
This also means that fragments cannot create new or match existing
|
|
state table entries, which makes stateful filtering and address
|
|
translation (NAT, redirection) for fragments impossible.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
It's also possible to reassemble only certain fragments by specifying
|
|
source or destination addresses or protocols as parameters in
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
rules.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In most cases, the benefits of reassembly outweigh the additional
|
|
memory cost, and it's recommended to use
|
|
.Ar scrub
|
|
rules to reassemble
|
|
all fragments via the
|
|
.Ar fragment reassemble
|
|
modifier.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The memory allocated for fragment caching can be limited using
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8 .
|
|
Once this limit is reached, fragments that would have to be cached
|
|
are dropped until other entries time out.
|
|
The timeout value can also be adjusted.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Currently, only IPv4 fragments are supported and IPv6 fragments
|
|
are blocked unconditionally.
|
|
.Sh ANCHORS
|
|
Besides the main ruleset,
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8
|
|
can load rulesets into
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
attachment points.
|
|
An
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
is a container that can hold rules, address tables, and other anchors.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
An
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
has a name which specifies the path where
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8
|
|
can be used to access the anchor to perform operations on it, such as
|
|
attaching child anchors to it or loading rules into it.
|
|
Anchors may be nested, with components separated by
|
|
.Sq /
|
|
characters, similar to how file system hierarchies are laid out.
|
|
The main ruleset is actually the default anchor, so filter and
|
|
translation rules, for example, may also be contained in any anchor.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
An anchor can reference another
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
attachment point
|
|
using the following kinds
|
|
of rules:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width xxxx
|
|
.It Ar nat-anchor <name>
|
|
Evaluates the
|
|
.Ar nat
|
|
rules in the specified
|
|
.Ar anchor .
|
|
.It Ar rdr-anchor <name>
|
|
Evaluates the
|
|
.Ar rdr
|
|
rules in the specified
|
|
.Ar anchor .
|
|
.It Ar binat-anchor <name>
|
|
Evaluates the
|
|
.Ar binat
|
|
rules in the specified
|
|
.Ar anchor .
|
|
.It Ar anchor <name>
|
|
Evaluates the filter rules in the specified
|
|
.Ar anchor .
|
|
.It Ar load anchor <name> from <file>
|
|
Loads the rules from the specified file into the
|
|
anchor
|
|
.Ar name .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When evaluation of the main ruleset reaches an
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
rule,
|
|
.Xr pf 4
|
|
will proceed to evaluate all rules specified in that anchor.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Matching filter and translation rules in anchors with the
|
|
.Ar quick
|
|
option are final and abort the evaluation of the rules in other
|
|
anchors
|
|
and the main ruleset.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
rules are evaluated relative to the anchor in which they are contained.
|
|
For example, all
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
rules specified in the main ruleset will reference anchor
|
|
attachment points underneath the main ruleset, and
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
rules specified in a file loaded from a
|
|
.Ar load anchor
|
|
rule will be attached under that anchor point.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Rules may be contained in
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
attachment points which do not contain any rules when the main ruleset
|
|
is loaded, and later such anchors can be manipulated through
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8
|
|
without reloading the main ruleset or other anchors.
|
|
For example,
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
ext_if = \&"kue0\&"
|
|
block on $ext_if all
|
|
anchor spam
|
|
pass out on $ext_if all keep state
|
|
pass in on $ext_if proto tcp from any \e
|
|
to $ext_if port smtp keep state
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
blocks all packets on the external interface by default, then evaluates
|
|
all rules in the
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
named "spam", and finally passes all outgoing connections and
|
|
incoming connections to port 25.
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
# echo \&"block in quick from 1.2.3.4 to any\&" \&| \e
|
|
pfctl -a spam -f -
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
This loads a single rule into the
|
|
.Ar anchor ,
|
|
which blocks all packets from a specific address.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The anchor can also be populated by adding a
|
|
.Ar load anchor
|
|
rule after the
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
rule:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
anchor spam
|
|
load anchor spam from "/etc/pf-spam.conf"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
When
|
|
.Xr pfctl 8
|
|
loads
|
|
.Nm pf.conf ,
|
|
it will also load all the rules from the file
|
|
.Pa /etc/pf-spam.conf
|
|
into the anchor.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Optionally,
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
rules can specify the parameter's
|
|
direction, interface, address family, protocol and source/destination
|
|
address/port
|
|
using the same syntax as filter rules.
|
|
When parameters are used, the
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
rule is only evaluated for matching packets.
|
|
This allows conditional evaluation of anchors, like:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
block on $ext_if all
|
|
anchor spam proto tcp from any to any port smtp
|
|
pass out on $ext_if all keep state
|
|
pass in on $ext_if proto tcp from any to $ext_if port smtp keep state
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The rules inside
|
|
.Ar anchor
|
|
spam are only evaluated for
|
|
.Ar tcp
|
|
packets with destination port 25.
|
|
Hence,
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
# echo \&"block in quick from 1.2.3.4 to any" \&| \e
|
|
pfctl -a spam -f -
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
will only block connections from 1.2.3.4 to port 25.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Anchors may end with the asterisk
|
|
.Pq Sq *
|
|
character, which signifies that all anchors attached at that point
|
|
should be evaluated in the alphabetical ordering of their anchor name.
|
|
For example,
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
anchor "spam/*"
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
will evaluate each rule in each anchor attached to the
|
|
.Li spam
|
|
anchor.
|
|
Note that it will only evaluate anchors that are directly attached to the
|
|
.Li spam
|
|
anchor, and will not descend to evaluate anchors recursively.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Since anchors are evaluated relative to the anchor in which they are
|
|
contained, there is a mechanism for accessing the parent and ancestor
|
|
anchors of a given anchor.
|
|
Similar to file system path name resolution, if the sequence
|
|
.Dq ..
|
|
appears as an anchor path component, the parent anchor of the current
|
|
anchor in the path evaluation at that point will become the new current
|
|
anchor.
|
|
As an example, consider the following:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
# echo ' anchor "spam/allowed" ' | pfctl -f -
|
|
# echo -e ' anchor "../banned" \en pass' | \e
|
|
pfctl -a spam/allowed -f -
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Evaluation of the main ruleset will lead into the
|
|
.Li spam/allowed
|
|
anchor, which will evaluate the rules in the
|
|
.Li spam/banned
|
|
anchor, if any, before finally evaluating the
|
|
.Ar pass
|
|
rule.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Since the parser specification for anchor names is a string, any
|
|
reference to an anchor name containing solidus
|
|
.Pq Sq /
|
|
characters will require double quote
|
|
.Pq Sq \&"
|
|
characters around the anchor name.
|
|
.Sh TRANSLATION EXAMPLES
|
|
This example maps incoming requests on port 80 to port 8080, on
|
|
which a daemon is running (because, for example, it is not run as root,
|
|
and therefore lacks permission to bind to port 80).
|
|
.Bd -literal
|
|
# use a macro for the interface name, so it can be changed easily
|
|
ext_if = \&"ne3\&"
|

|

# map daemon on 8080 to appear to be on 80

.Ed
|
|
.Pp

If the
|
|
.Ar pass

modifier is given, packets matching the translation rule are passed without
|
|
inspecting the filter rules:

|

In the example below, vlan12 is configured as 192.168.168.1;
|
|
the machine translates all packets coming from 192.168.168.0/24 to 204.92.77.111
|
|
when they are going out any interface except vlan12.
|
|
This has the net effect of making traffic from the 192.168.168.0/24
|
|
network appear as though it is the Internet routable address
|
|
204.92.77.111 to nodes behind any interface on the router except
|
|
for the nodes on vlan12.
|
|
(Thus, 192.168.168.1 can talk to the 192.168.168.0/24 nodes.)

.Sh BUGS
|
|
Due to a lock order reversal (LOR) with the socket layer, the use of the
|
|
.Ar group
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar user
|
|
filter parameter in conjuction with a Giant-free netstack
|
|
can result in a deadlock.
|
|
If you have to use
|
|
.Ar group
|
|
or
|
|
.Ar user
|
|
you must set
|
|
.Va debug.mpsafenet
|
|
to
|
|
.Dq 0
|
|
from the
|
|
.Xr loader 8 ,
|
|
for the moment.
|
|
This workaround will still produce the LOR, but Giant will protect from the
|
|
deadlock.
