 I sniffed it to see if there were any clues but all is totally standard IP. 

But through which interfaces did the arp requests arrive *before*
turning on arp_filter and on which interfaces do they arrive *after*
setting arp_filter? 

If both cards are on the same switch and arp_filtering is turned off,
any of the two interfaces will answer arp requests for both cards, as
both requests go to an interface, which is local to the machine.

Turning on arp_filtering, each interface will only answer requests
directed at that interface. 

Can you send some sniffing output *before* and *after* changing the
setting? Is there anything strange in dmesg?

Cheers,

Ralph

[CentOS] arp corrupted

2007-10-21 Thread Bobby
Hi,

I've been trying to get a couple of routers up after h/w failure.

The border router is an OpenBSD firewall running NAT between the Internet and 
a DMZ like subnet, and in that a Linux antivirus server is running NAT to the 
LAN. 

When the client does a DNS query it reaches to the f/w where dns is running 
and is returned into the A/V server but never hits the 0.254 interface. 
(Shown by running tcpdump on each interface.)

(Internet)
|
OpenBSD Firewall 
NAT 192.168.1.254
|
192.168.1.253 eth0
Anti-Virus in DMZ
192.168.0.254 eth1
|
192.168.0.11
Client on LAN

The routing table on the A/V server is:
 192.168.1.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0   U 0 0  0 eth0
 192.168.0.0 192.168.0.254   255.255.255.0   UG0 0  0 eth1
 192.168.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.255.0   U 0 0  0 eth1
 169.254.0.0 0.0.0.0 255.255.0.0 U 0 0  0 eth1
 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.254   0.0.0.0 UG0 0  0 eth0

Sitting on the A/V server one can reach the client without problem.

Arp shows:
 Address HWtype  HWaddress   Flags MaskIface
 192.168.1.254ether   00:20:78:0F:AC:31   C eth0

Unless I try to reach the client web server from the A/Vserver, then it fails 
and arp says:

 Address  HWtype  HWaddress   Flags MaskIface
 corp.domain.com  (incomplete)  eth0
 dell11.domain.com  ether   00:06:29:AF:A3:67   C eth1
 192.168.1.254ether   00:20:78:0F:AC:31   C   eth0

One can also see the arp requests go out on eth 0 rather than eth1:

 arp who-has 192.168.0.10 tell 192.168.0.254

Pinging works well:

 PING 192.168.0.11 (192.168.0.11) 56(84) bytes of data.
 64 bytes from 192.168.0.11: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=0.277 ms

Iptables on the A/V server says:

*nat
:PREROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:POSTROUTING ACCEPT [0:0]
:OUTPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
-A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-port 9080
-A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 110 -j REDIRECT --to-port 9110
-A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 25 -j REDIRECT --to-port 9025
-A PREROUTING -i eth1 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 21 -j REDIRECT --to-port 9021
COMMIT
*filter
:INPUT ACCEPT [0:0]
:FORWARD ACCEPT [0:0]
:Firewall-INPUT - [0:0]
-A INPUT -i lo -j ACCEPT
-A INPUT -i eth0 -j ACCEPT
COMMIT

It is supposed to route all outbound traffic through the various ports where 
the A/V s/w is listening.

ifconfig shows:

eth0  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:0D:88:39:6A:F1
  inet addr:192.168.1.253  Bcast:192.168.1.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
  inet6 addr: fe80::20d:88ff:fe39:6af1/64 Scope:Link

  collisions:523 txqueuelen:1000
  RX bytes:22858238 (21.7 MiB)  TX bytes:21513745 (20.5 MiB)
  Interrupt:11 Base address:0x2400

eth1  Link encap:Ethernet  HWaddr 00:50:FC:AC:52:4B
  inet addr:192.168.0.254  Bcast:192.168.0.255  Mask:255.255.255.0
  inet6 addr: fe80::250:fcff:feac:524b/64 Scope:Link

  RX bytes:2747567 (2.6 MiB)  TX bytes:26324006 (25.1 MiB)
  Interrupt:7 Base address:0x2800

If NAT did not work I could see it having a problem. It appears to be happy 
routing icmp but not tcp. cat /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward shows 1 which it 
would have to anyway since the request goes out from the LAN.

Put 

net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_filter = 1

into your /etc/sysctl.conf

and run (for the time being) 

sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.all.arp_filter=1

Linux implements the weak host model, so packages are accepted on any
interface, *if* the traffic is directed at the host.

When arp is used, this model doesn't always work. That's why you should
use the sysctl setting above.

Cheers,

Ralph

That stops the AVserver from answering arp requests.

Now that is *strange*.

Can you look with tcpdump what happens on the network?

tcpdump -i any arp 

should do that.
