Reject UDP Packets with nftables

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

 



Hi,

I can reject a TCP packet in nftables with:

     ip protocol tcp reject with type port-unreachable

This shows up in a nmap scan and on Wireshark.

However, if I try:

      ip protocol udp reject with type port-unreachable

netfilter seems to simply drop the packet.

Am I missing something here? Should it be possible to reject a UDP
packet?  My belief is that it should because if I:

      nmap --reason -sU -p 12345 <remote Debian host with no firewall>

I get:

      PORT      STATE  SERVICE REASON
      12345/udp closed italk   port-unreach ttl 64

back, which is an ICMP port unreachable message.  I just can't seem to
get nftables to do the same.

Any advice?

Thanks in advance,

Gareth Williams
