Hi,


I am using Shorewall on my home router and it runs fine. I just have one

problem when my ppp0 interface IP address is changed.

My internal (LAN) interface is br0 and the internet interface is ppp0 which

is a DSL connection to my ISP.

All internal traffic is masquaraded to the ppp0 IP address when reaching

internet.

Whenever, the dsl connection is lost or shutdown intentionally, I begin to

have problems with my nat connections.

Especially if the connection is UDP based.



For example, when I check the "shorewall show connections" output I still

see that my Asterisk server is still sending the SIP messages to the

internet with previous ppp0 IP address.



If I shutdown the LAN interface and wait for 5 minutes, and then re-up the

LAN interface, the connection becomes refreshed with the new ppp0 IP

address.

But 5 minutes is a long time. How can I force the active nat connections to

be reset whenever my ppp0 is down/up ?



Thanks,

ilker
