Help with packet marking

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi, I've got a multi homed system which was all working fine until it was accidentally rebooted a couple of days ago and this is probably more LARTC but that list seems dead?

Anyway I'm now seeing bizarre behaviour running ubuntu 10.04 kernel 2.6.32-40. Previously I would mark the packets in prerouting and then have fwmark based rules in the routing table to send them out via a separate custom routing table. I have the main routing table set up with a default route via one of the interfaces

Now I can see when debugging iptables, that the interface is set correctly and the packet is marked, but sticking a sniffer onto the interfaces shows me that the packets are coming out of the default interface. If i disable the default route I get "unreachable host". Another wierd thing is that conntrack is showing separate new connections as established, for example if I ping 1 packet and repeat the command the second ping is labelled as established which I wouldn't expect... (I've posted this issue earlier as restore-mark is working for what I'd expect to be new connections)

Anyway my setup
interfaces
eth0 : 192.168.2.7
eth1 : x.37.63.74        gw=x.37.63.73
eth3 : x.45.115.81      gw=x.45.115.86

# add extra routing tables
ip route add x.37.63.72/29 dev eth1 table 101
ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0 table 101
ip route add default via x.37.63.73 dev eth1 table 101

ip route add x.45.115.80/29 dev eth3 table 103
ip route add 192.168.2.0/24 dev eth0 table 103
ip route add default via x.45.115.86 dev eth3 table 103

# add rules
ip rule add fwmark 101 table 101
ip rule add fwmark 103 table 103

# route a specific ip out for testing sent from 192.168.2.x and forwarded through this box. iptables -t mangle -A PREROUTING -d 98.207.221.49/32 -m state --state NEW -j MATCH1
iptables -t mangle -A MATCH1 -j MARK --set-mark 0x1
iptables -t mangle -A MATCH1 -j CONNMARK --save-mark

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth1 -j SNAT --to x.37.63.74


The above is a simplified subset but covers the basics I think. Anyway doing
ping 98.207.221.49
from an internal machine using this as its gateway fails. I can see it marks the rule, does the routing which sets the outgoing interface correctly but then the packet comes out of the default interface and is then lost. The following logs are generated (cropped for readability) from which you can see it getting marked and the interface set correctly

PREROUTING (NEW) IN=eth0 OUT= SRC=192.168.2.133 DST=98.207.221.49 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=128 ID=9452 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=1 SEQ=1354 PREROUTING (MARK1) IN=eth0 OUT= SRC=192.168.2.133 DST=98.207.221.49 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=128 ID=9452 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=1 SEQ=1354 FORWARD IN=eth0 OUT=eth1 SRC=192.168.2.133 DST=98.207.221.49 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=127 ID=9452 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=1 SEQ=1354 MARK=0x1 POSTROUTING IN= OUT=eth1 SRC=192.168.2.133 DST=98.207.221.49 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=127 ID=9452 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=1 SEQ=1354 MARK=0x1 SNATTING IN= OUT=eth1 SRC=192.168.2.133 DST=98.207.221.49 LEN=60 TOS=0x00 PREC=0x00 TTL=127 ID=9452 PROTO=ICMP TYPE=8 CODE=0 ID=1 SEQ=1354 MARK=0x1

anyone got an idea what is going on?

Thanks

John
