Hi,

I'm having a bit of troubles getting the bridging (transparent) mode
running on MNF. I defined a bridge on 2 interfaces, one being the local
net and one being the router/modem to the internet. The local net has
10.0.0.0/24 , the router gateway is 10.0.0.138 and the firewall bridge br0
has ip 10.0.0.202
a third interface has 192.168.0.2 as ip, and is connected to a management
pc, on wich the "lan" zone has been defined. The br0 has "dmz" as zone
Now, how can i get traffic from the local net to the internet ?



do you really need a bridge in your case ? If so, you can have a look at the examples from shorewall.net web site ... if you don't manage, post your shorewall configuration here ... and we'll sort things out ...

have a nice day,



Yes, i do need the bridge. I apologize for the confusion but the IP adresses being in the private range. It was my test environment for the firewall system. In real life the firewall would act as a transparent firewall in front of several public IP servers. With the help of shorewall website i figured out that the hosts file needed a br0:eth0 and br0:eth1 entry (cannot do this on the gui apparently). Then you can set the wan alias to br0:eth0 and the dmz to br0:eth1 and configure the rules in the gui.


So the only adjustment i needed to make that couldn't be done on the gui was the host file edit. Would be nice to have though :).


Thanks for the support and thanks for doing a great job on the MNF stuff.
