notrack \- shorewall6 notrack file
.SH "SYNOPSIS"
.HP \w'\fB/etc/shorewall6/notrack\fR\ 'u
\fB/etc/shorewall6/notrack\fR
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.PP
The original intent of the notrack file was to exempt certain traffic from Netfilter connection tracking\&. Traffic matching entries in this file were not to be tracked\&.
.PP
The role of the file was expanded in Shorewall 4\&.4\&.27 to include all rules tht can be added in the Netfilter
\fBraw\fR
table\&.
.PP
The file supports two different column layouts: FORMAT 1 and FORMAT 2, FORMAT 1 being the default\&. The two differ in that FORMAT 2 has an additional leading ACTION column\&. When an entry in the file of this form is encountered, the format of the following entries are assumed to be of the specified
\fIformat\fR\&.
.RS 4
FORMAT \fIformat\fR
.RE
.PP
where
\fIformat\fR
is either
\fB1\fR
or
\fB2\fR\&.
.PP
The columns in the file are as follows (where the column name is followed by a different name in parentheses, the different name is used in the alternate specification syntax)\&.
.PP
\fBACTION\fR \- {\fBNOTRACK\fR|\fBCT\fR:\fIoption\fR:\fIargs\fR}
.RS 4
This column is only present when FORMAT = 2\&. Values other than NOTRACK require
CT Targetsupport in your iptables and kernel\&.
.sp
Possible values for
\fIoption\fR
and
\fIarg\fRs are:
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
\fBnotrack\fR
(no
\fIarg\fR)
.sp
Disables connection tracking for this packet, the same as if NOTRACK has been specified in this column\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
\fBhelper\fR:\fIname\fR
.sp
Use the helper identified by the name to this connection\&. This is more flexible than loading the conntrack helper with preset ports\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3
.\}
\fBctevents\fR:\fIevent\fR,\&.\&.\&.
.sp
Only generate the specified conntrack events for this connection\&. Possible event types are:
\fBnew\fR,
\fBrelated\fR,
\fBdestroy\fR,
\fBreply\fR,
\fBassured\fR,
\fBprotoinfo\fR,
\fBhelper\fR,
\fBmark\fR
(this is connection mark, not packet mark),
\fBnatseqinfo\fR, and
\fBsecmark\fR\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c

.el \{\

Only generate a new expectation events for this connection\&.

.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3

\fBzone\fR:\fIid\fR
.sp
Assign this packet to zone
\fIid\fR
and only have lookups done in that zone\&. By default, packets have zone 0\&.
.RE
.sp
When FORMAT = 1, this column is not present and the rule is processed as if NOTRACK had been entered in this column\&.
.RE
.PP
SOURCE \(en \fIzone\fR[:\fIinterface\fR][:\fIaddress\-list\fR]
.RS 4
where
\fIzone\fR
is the name of a zone,
\fIinterface\fR
is an interface to that zone, and
\fIaddress\-list\fR
is a comma\-separated list of addresses (may contain exclusion \- see
\m[blue]\fBshorewall6\-exclusion\fR\m[]\&\s-2\u[1]\d\s+2

is a comma\-separated list of addresses (may contain exclusion \- see

.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c
.\}
.el \{\
.sp -1
.IP \(bu 2.3

It must be up and configured with an IPv6 address when Shorewall is started or restarted\&.
.RE
.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c

.el \{\

.sp
.RS 4
.ie n \{\
\h'-04'\(bu\h'+03'\c

.el \{\

Default routes out of the interface will result in a warning message and will be ignored\&.

DEST PORT(S) (dport) \- port\-number/service\-name\-list
.RS 4
A comma\-separated list of port numbers and/or service names from

if your kernel and iptables include port range support\&.
.RE
.PP
SOURCE PORT(S) (sport) \- port\-number/service\-name\-list
