As far as I understand, your last comment could be nearly right, in a way... :-) I guess if you could bridge the OPT1 with the LAN connection and connect your internet router to the OPT1 port, it should work. Like this: LAN Switch --- LAN m0n0wall OPT1(bridged to LAN) --- internet connection Just leave the WAN not connected (with 0.0.0.0/32) and treat the OPT1 as your WAN connection. OR LAN Switch --- OPT1(bridged to WAN) m0n0wall WAN --- Internet connection And leave your LAN disconnected (OPT1 is now your LAN connection). You should not put the 2 bridged interfaces on the LAN side, but one on the intenet side too. The reason to use 3 interfaces is that LAN to WAN bridging (or reverse for that matter) will NOT work, so you need a 3rd interface to be the OPT1 and be able to bridge (as you cannot assign an interface to OPT1 and not have a LAN and WAN interface). One of the 3 interfaces is not used, really. Hope this clears up some things (and hope i'm right ;-) Regards, Joachim -----Original Message----- From: Bostjan Hojkar [mailto:bostjan dot hojkar at fov dot uni dash mb dot si] Sent: dinsdag 18 november 2003 12:19 To: Christiaens Joachim; Manuel Kasper Cc: m0n0wall at lists dot m0n0 dot ch Subject: Re: [m0n0wall] Bridge again :) Servers,Clients ---- LAN switch --- LAN and "OPT1 bridged with WAN" m0n0wall + WAN m0n0wall --- Internet "+" showing something like a m0n0wall box :) from old Bruce A. Mah filtering bridge page: Practically speaking, you need three interfaces to make this work, since these patches were designed to bridge the WAN port to one of the OPTx ports, and the LAN port doesn't work too well in either of these roles. In fact, I have not tested the NAT functionality of m0n0wall with these patches applied. So... I'm confused here... Should i just bridge with LAN and remove OPT1??? (That would be just too easy and i would be very happy :)) Regards, Hob ----- Original Message ----- From: "Christiaens Joachim" <jchristi at oce dot be> To: "'Bostjan Hojkar'" <bostjan dot hojkar at fov dot uni dash mb dot si>; "Manuel Kasper" <mk at neon1 dot net> Cc: <m0n0wall at lists dot m0n0 dot ch> Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2003 12:05 PM Subject: RE: [m0n0wall] Bridge again :) I'm kinda confused here! Can you make a little schematic like this please: Servers/Clients --- LAN Switch --- LAN m0n0wall bridged OPT1 --- Internet Connection router (this, by the way should be a working example for bridged firewalling) Regards, Joachim -----Original Message----- From: Bostjan Hojkar [mailto:bostjan dot hojkar at fov dot uni dash mb dot si] Sent: dinsdag 18 november 2003 11:59 To: Manuel Kasper Cc: m0n0wall at lists dot m0n0 dot ch Subject: Re: [m0n0wall] Bridge again :) Well my purpose is bridged firewall (filtering bridge). The way filtering bridge would work (AFAIK) is "put 2 interfaces, into bridged mode, ipless and connect them in the midle of your LAN - Router connection". The third interface is there only for sake of administering firewall via WEB interface. As i understand it this is how Bruce designed the whole filtering bridge thing here. Or maybe not :). OPT1 is not DMZ for me, and my LAN is network of public IPs, so i'm not concerned with that (i.e. security) right now :) There aren't any servers that would be conected via OPT1. I'd be more than happy to use only 2 interfaces, put them into bridged mode and get away with it. But u can't bridge WAN and LAN as it is right now. I'll be working on that when i have time, but thought i'd use what it is and the way it's supposed to work right now Thx, Hob ----- Original Message ----- > OPT1(bridged, ipless) and LAN are on same switch. Ouch! Kinda defeats the purpose of having a separate optional interface, doesn't it? If one of your servers is compromised -> voilà, instant full access to your LAN. > Access to web interface from some computer on LAN sometimes timeouts > and is > slow. If i disconnect OPT1 from switch, everything is allright. So just do it the right way and use a separate switch, so having a separate optional interface will actually make sense. ;) > please try this patch (provided by jlemon) FreeBSD 4.9 already has this patch. FreeBSD's ARP gets majorly confused if it finds two interfaces connecting to the same broadcast domain (I can't blame it, either - a setup like that just doesn't usually make good sense). - Manuel --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: m0n0wall dash unsubscribe at lists dot m0n0 dot ch For additional commands, e-mail: m0n0wall dash help at lists dot m0n0 dot ch ----------------------------------------------- MISSION STATEMENT ----------------------------------------------- Océ enables its customers to manage their documents efficiently and effectively by offering innovative print and document management products and services for professional environments. ----------------------------------------------- DISCLAIMER ----------------------------------------------- This e-mail message and any attachment are intended for the sole use of the recipient(s) named above and may contain information which is confidential and/or protected by intellectual property rights.
