hi,
i'm new to ipv6, just trying to go the first steps and got trapped.
my configuration:
testmachine with 2 network interfaces (eth0 local, eth1 connected to our
internet router)
Linux version 2.6.32-5-686 (Debian 2.6.32-45) (dannf@debian.org) (gcc
version 4.3.5 (Debian 4.3.5-4) ) #1 SMP Sun May 6 04:01:19 UTC 2012
ipv6-conf-script -
#ipv6
ARG="$1"
case "$ARG" in
start)
cmd="add"
;;
stop)
cmd="del"
;;
*)
echo "Usage: $0 { start | stop }"
exit 1
;;
esac
ip -6 addr $cmd 2001:1438:2000::17:17:127/48 dev eth1
ip -6 route $cmd ::/0 via 2001:1438:2000::1
after executing ipv6 start i can ping6 our internet router
(2001:1438:2000::1) and ipv6-addresses in the outside world such as
ipv6.google.com and www.nasa.gov
now i created a minimal firewall configuration -
#ipv6firewall
INE_IFACE="eth1"
LAN_IFACE="eth0"
IPT=/sbin/ip6tables
case "$1" in
stop)
# policy: accept anthing
${IPT} -P INPUT ACCEPT
${IPT} -P OUTPUT ACCEPT
${IPT} -P FORWARD ACCEPT
${IPT} -F
;;
start)
# policy: deny anthing
${IPT} -P INPUT DROP
${IPT} -P OUTPUT DROP
${IPT} -P FORWARD DROP
${IPT} -A INPUT -i ${INE_IFACE} -m state --state
ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
${IPT} -A OUTPUT -o
${INE_IFACE} -j ACCEPT
${IPT} -A OUTPUT -o ${LAN_IFACE} -m state --state
ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT
${IPT} -A INPUT -i
${LAN_IFACE} -j ACCEPT
${IPT} -A INPUT -i ${INE_IFACE} -j LOG --log-prefix "INE_IN"
;;
status)
${IPT} -L -v
;;
*)
echo $"Usage: $0 {start|stop|status"
;;
esac
after executing ipv6firewall i can no ping6 the outside world for an
extended time period, not even our internet-router - some ping6-replies
are recieved and than ping6 stalls:
