Shorewall and VPN gateway

Tutorial for setting up an IP tunnel gateway from cjdns to clearnet, using a VPN and Shorewall.

##General

  • Close any open ports also on IPv6, e.g.: ip6tables -A INPUT -i tun0 -p tcp --destination-port 22 -j REJECT

##VPN Connect to a VPN provider (I used mullvad.net). Make sure you can pay with bitcoins. Recommended connection: openvpn.

##Firewall (shorewall) ###Interfaces

 #ZONE INTERFACE BROADCAST OPTIONS
 net eth0 detect routefilter,dhcp,tcpflags,logmartians,nosmurfs
 cjdns tun0 detect routefilter,dhcp,tcpflags,logmartians,nosmurfs
 vpn tun1 detect routefilter,dhcp,tcpflags,logmartians,nosmurfs

###Zones

 #ZONE   TYPE    OPTIONS                 IN                      OUT
 #                                       OPTIONS                 OPTIONS
 fw      firewall
 net     ipv4
 cjdns   ipv4
 vpn     ipv4

###Policy

 #SOURCE         DEST            POLICY          LOG LEVEL       LIMIT:BURST
 $FW             net             ACCEPT
 $FW             vpn             ACCEPT
 cjdns		vpn		ACCEPT
 vpn		cjdns		DROP		info
 net             $FW             DROP            info
 vpn             $FW             DROP            info
 cjdns		$FW		DROP		info
 $FW		cjdns		DROP		info
 net             all             DROP            info
 # The FOLLOWING POLICY MUST BE LAST
 all             all             REJECT          info

###Rules

 #ACTION         SOURCE                  DEST            PROTO   DEST
 #                                                       PORT
 # Cjdns over vpn:
 ACCEPT          vpn                     $FW             udp     31777
 # ping
 ACCEPT          net                     $FW             icmp    8
 # Reject Ping from the "bad" net zone.. and prevent your log from being flooded..
 Ping/REJECT     net                     $FW
 # Permit all ICMP traffic FROM the firewall TO the net zone
 ACCEPT          $FW                     net             icmp
 ACCEPT          $FW                     cjdns           icmp
 ACCEPT          cjdns                   $FW             icmp

##Networking Give an IPV4 address to the server side of the cjdns tunnel:

ip addr add 10.42.0.3/32 dev tun0

Add route to each client side of the cjdns tunnel:

ip route add 10.42.42.42 via 10.42.0.3 dev tun0

Set forwarding on:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/all/forwarding

Add vpn address:

route add $VPN_ENTRY_ADDRESS gateway $SERVER_REAL_ADDRESS

The default gw for the clients (to vpn):

ip addr add 10.42.0.1/32 dev tun1

Masqurading (NAT):

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o tun1 -j MASQUERADE

Remove original gateway:

 GW=`route -n | grep ^0.0.0.0 | awk -F ' ' '{ print $2 }'`
 route del default gw $GW

Use DNS server from VPN provider to avoid leaks: cp /etc/resolv.conf.vpn /etc/resolv.conf

##Add user

For convenience, I check the last 20 characters of the public key (not including .k) e.g.:

 publicKey="lsvf85b3bg9fwy74sdlbqyhlt5n7w32s4m1mwsxggjx5kfzfk120.k"
 NODE=${publicKey: -22:22}
 echo $NODE
 4m1mwsxggjx5kfzfk120.k

And I use it as part of the password added to cjdroute.conf under "authorizedPasswords": {"password":"4m1mwsxggjx5kfzfk120.k.foobarpassword"},

And under ipTunnel allowedConnections:

 {
   "publicKey": "lsvf85b3bg9fwy74sdlbqyhlt5n7w32s4m1mwsxggjx5kfzfk120.k",
   "ip4Address": "10.42.something.else",
 },

##Quota

Add a user

 # Check if chain exists
 iptables -L | grep $NODE && exit 0
 # Add the user
 iptables -N $NODE
 iptables -I cjdns2vpn 1 -s $IP -j $NODE
 iptables -I vpn2cjdns 1 -d $IP -j $NODE
 iptables -I $NODE 1 -j DROP
 iptables -I $NODE 1 -m quota --quota $QUOTA -j ACCEPT

Delete a user:

 # Check if chain exists
 iptables -L | grep $NODE || exit 0
 # Delete the user
 iptables -D $NODE -j DROP
 iptables -D $NODE -m quota --quota $QUOTA -j ACCEPT
 iptables -D cjdns2vpn -s $IP -j $NODE
 iptables -D vpn2cjdns -d $IP -j $NODE
 iptables -X $NODE

Reset user's quota: iptables -R $NODE 1 -m quota --quota $QUOTA -j ACCEPT
