<h3><a name="nwfwriteexample2nd">Second example custom filter</a></h3>
<p>
In this example we now want to build a similar filter as in the
example above, but extend the list of requirements with an
ftp server located inside the VM. Further, we will be using features
that have been added in <span class="since">version 0.8.5</span>.
The requirements for this filter are:
</p>
<ul>
<li>prevents a VM's interface from MAC, IP and ARP spoofing</li>
<li>opens only TCP ports 22 and 80 of a VM's interface</li>
<li>allows the VM to send ping traffic from an interface
but not let the VM be pinged on the interface</li>
<li>allows the VM to do DNS lookups (UDP towards port 53)</li>
<li>enable an ftp server (in active mode) to be run inside the VM
</ul>
<p>
The additional requirement of allowing an ftp server to be run inside
the VM maps into the requirement of allowing port 21 to be reachable
for ftp control traffic as well as enabling the VM to establish an
outgoing tcp connection originating from the VM's TCP port 20 back to
the ftp client (ftp active mode). There are several ways of how this
filter can be written and we present 2 solutions.
<br><br>
The 1st solution makes use of the <code>state</code> attribute of
the TCP protocol that gives us a hook into the connection tracking
framework of the Linux host. For the VM-initiated ftp data connection
(ftp active mode) we use the <code>RELATED</code> state that allows
us to detect that the VM-initiated ftp data connection is a consequence of
( or 'has a relationship with' ) an existing ftp control connection,
thus we want to allow it to let packets
pass the firewall. The <code>RELATED</code> state, however, is only
valid for the very first packet of the outgoing TCP connection for the
ftp data path. Afterwards, the state to compare against is
<code>ESTABLISHED</code>, which then applies equally
to the incoming and outgoing direction. All this is related to the ftp
data traffic originating from TCP port 20 of the VM. This then leads to
the following solution
<span class="since">(since 0.8.5 (Qemu, KVM, UML))</span>:
</p>
<pre>
&lt;filter name='test-eth0'&gt;
&lt;!-- reference the clean traffic filter to prevent
MAC, IP and ARP spoofing. By not providing
and IP address parameter, libvirt will detect the
IP address the VM is using. --&gt;
&lt;filterref filter='clean-traffic'/&gt;
&lt;!-- enable TCP port 21 (ftp-control) to be reachable --&gt;
&lt;rule action='accept' direction='in'&gt;
&lt;tcp dstportstart='21'/&gt;
&lt;/rule&gt;
&lt;!-- enable TCP port 20 for VM-initiated ftp data connection
related to an existing ftp control connection --&gt;
&lt;rule action='accept' direction='out'&gt;
&lt;tcp srcportstart='20' state='RELATED,ESTABLISHED'/&gt;
&lt;/rule&gt;
&lt;!-- accept all packets from client on the ftp data connection --&gt;
&lt;rule action='accept' direction='in'&gt;
&lt;tcp dstportstart='20' state='ESTABLISHED'/&gt;
&lt;/rule&gt;
&lt;!-- enable TCP ports 22 (ssh) and 80 (http) to be reachable --&gt;
&lt;rule action='accept' direction='in'&gt;
&lt;tcp dstportstart='22'/&gt;
&lt;/rule&gt;
&lt;rule action='accept' direction='in'&gt;
&lt;tcp dstportstart='80'/&gt;
&lt;/rule&gt;
&lt;!-- enable general ICMP traffic to be initiated by the VM;
this includes ping traffic --&gt;
&lt;rule action='accept' direction='out'&gt;
&lt;icmp/&gt;
&lt;/rule&gt;
&lt;!-- enable outgoing DNS lookups using UDP --&gt;
&lt;rule action='accept' direction='out'&gt;
&lt;udp dstportstart='53'/&gt;
&lt;/rule&gt;
&lt;!-- drop all other traffic --&gt;
&lt;rule action='drop' direction='inout'&gt;
&lt;all/&gt;
&lt;/rule&gt;
&lt;/filter&gt;
</pre>
<p>
Before trying out a filter using the <code>RELATED</code> state,
you have to make sure that the approriate connection tracking module
has been loaded into the host's kernel. Depending on the version of the
kernel, you must run either one of the following two commands before
the ftp connection with the VM is established.
</p>
<pre>
modprobe nf_conntrack_ftp # where available or
modprobe ip_conntrack_ftp # if above is not available
</pre>
<p>
If other protocols than ftp are to be used in conjunction with the
<code>RELATED</code> state, their corresponding module must be loaded.
Modules exist at least for the protocols ftp, tftp, irc, sip,
sctp, and amanda.
</p>
<p>
The 2nd solution makes uses the state flags of connections more
than the previous solution did.
In this solution we take advantage of the fact that the
<code>NEW</code> state of a connection is valid when the very
first packet of a traffic flow is seen. Subsequently, if the very first
packet of a flow is accepted, the flow becomes a connection and enters
the <code>ESTABLISHED</code> state. This allows us to write a general
rule for allowing packets of <code>ESTABLISHED</code> connections to
reach the VM or be sent by the VM.
We write specific rules for the very first packets identified by the
<code>NEW</code> state and for which ports they are acceptable. All
packets for ports that are not explicitly accepted will be dropped and
therefore the connection will not go into the <code>ESTABLISHED</code>
state and any subsequent packets be dropped.

&lt;filterref filter='clean-traffic'/&gt;
&lt;!-- let the packets of all previously accepted connections reach the VM --&gt;
&lt;rule action='accept' direction='in'&gt;
&lt;all state='ESTABLISHED'/&gt;
&lt;/rule&gt;
&lt;!-- let the packets of all previously accepted and related connections be sent from the VM --&gt;
&lt;rule action='accept' direction='out'&gt;
&lt;all state='ESTABLISHED,RELATED'/&gt;
&lt;/rule&gt;
&lt;!-- enable traffic towards port 21 (ftp), 22 (ssh) and 80 (http) --&gt;
&lt;rule action='accept' direction='in'&gt;
