Package: shorewall
Version: 3.0.7-1
Severity: wishlist

Please add new macro

  /usr/share/shorewall/macro.Gnunet

The ports needed are:

    GNUnet uses the ports 2086 and 1080 by default. Configure your
    firewall to accept packets to the ports 2086 and 1080 (TCP and
    UDP) for the machine running the GNUnet daemon gnunetd. If your
    firewall is a NAT box, forward packets to your GNUnet machine?s
    ports 2086 and 1080 and tweak the configuration file gnunetd.conf
    (sections NETWORK, LOAD, UDP, TCP and NAT) to use the external IP
    of the NAT box. Port 2087 is used for communication between
    gnunetd and the client tools as gnunet-gtk, gnunet-search
    etc. There is no need to open port 2087 to the rest of the
    Internet.

    Port 2086 is used for GNUnet?s own transmission protocol, HTTP
    encapsulated GNUnet packets ("HTTP transport") are transmitted
    through port 1080 by default. The HTTP transport is not
    necessarily required and can be disabled in GNUnet?s configuration
    file. Disabling it on firewalled systems is important, because
    available transports are advertised to other peers and activated
    but broken transports result in decreased reachability.

About Gnunet


    GNUnet is a framework for secure peer-to-peer networking that does
    not use any centralized or otherwise trusted services. A first
    service implemented on top of the networking layer allows
    anonymous censorship-resistant file-sharing. GNUnet uses a simple,
    excess-based economic model to allocate resources. Peers in GNUnet
    monitor each others behavior with respect to resource usage; peers
    that contribute to the network are rewarded with better service.
