.PP
The \fBDNETMAP\fR target allows dynamic two-way 1:1 mapping of IPv4 subnets. A
single rule can map a private subnet to a shorter public subnet, creating and
maintaining unambiguous private-public IP address bindings. The second rule can
be used to map new flows to a private subnet according to maintained bindings.
The target allows efficient public IPv4 space usage and unambiguous NAT at the
same time.
.PP
The target can be used only in the \fBnat\fR table in \fBPOSTROUTING\fR or
\fBOUTPUT\fR chains for SNAT, and in \fBPREROUTING\fR for DNAT. Only flows
directed to bound addresses will be DNATed. The packet continues chain
traversal if there is no free postnat address to be assigned to the prenat
address. The default binding \fBTTL\fR is \fI10 minutes\fR and can be changed
using the \fBdefault_ttl\fR module option. The default address hash size is 256
and can be changed using the \fBhash_size\fR module option.
.TP
\fB\-\-prefix\fR \fIaddr\fR\fB/\fR\fImask\fR
The network subnet to map to. If not specified, all existing prefixes are used.
.TP
\fB\-\-reuse\fR
Reuse the entry for a given prenat address from any prefix even if the
binding's TTL is < 0.
.TP
\fB\-\-persistent\fR
Set the prefix to be persistent. It will not be removed after deleting the last
iptables rule. The option is effective only in the first rule for a given
prefix. If you need to change persistency for an existing prefix, please use
the procfs interface described below.
.TP
\fB\-\-static\fR
Do not create dynamic mappings using this rule. Use static mappings only. Note
that you need to create static mappings via the procfs interface for this rule
for this option to have any effect.
.TP
\fB\-\-ttl\fR \fIseconds\fR
Reset the binding's TTL value to \fIseconds\fR. If a negative value is
specified, the binding's TTL is kept unchanged. If this option is not
specified, then the default TTL value (600s) is used.
.PP
\fB* /proc interface\fR
.PP
The module creates the following entries for each new specified subnet:
.TP
\fB/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/\fR\fIsubnet\fR\fB_\fR\fImask\fR
Contains the binding table for the given \fIsubnet/mask\fP. Each line contains
\fBprenat address\fR, \fBpostnat address\fR, \fBttl\fR (seconds until the entry
times out), \fBlasthit\fR (last hit to the entry in seconds relative to system
boot time). Please note that the \fBttl\fR and \fBlasthit\fR entries contain an
'\fBS\fR' in case of a static binding.
.TP
\fB/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/\fR\fIsubnet\fR\fB_\fR\fImask\fR\fB_stat\fR
Contains statistics for a given \fIsubnet/mask\fP. The line contains four
numerical values separated by spaces. The first one is the number of currently
used dynamic addresses (bindings with negative TTL excluded), the second one is
the number of static assignments, the third one is the number of all usable
addresses in the subnet, and the fourth one is the mean \fBTTL\fR value for all
active entries. If the prefix has the persistent flag set, it will be noted as
fifth entry.
.PP
The following write operations are supported via the procfs interface:
.TP
echo "+\fIprenat-address\fR:\fIpostnat-address\fR" >\fB/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/subnet_mask\fR
Adds a static binding between the prenat and postnap address. If
postnat_address is already bound, any previous binding will be timed out
immediately. A static binding is never timed out.
.TP
echo "\-\fIaddress\fR" >\fB/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/subnet_mask\fR
Removes the binding with \fIaddress\fR as prenat or postnat address. If the
removed binding is currently static, it will make the entry available for
dynamic allocation.
.TP
echo "+persistent" >\fB/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/subnet_mask\fR
Sets the persistent flag for the prefix. It is useful if you do not want
bindings to get flushed when the firewall is restarted. You can check if the
prefix is persistent by printing the contents of
\fB/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/\fR\fIsubnet\fR\fB_\fR\fImask\fR\fB_stat\fR.
.TP
echo "\-persistent" >\fB/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/subnet_mask\fR
Unsets the persistent flag for the prefix. In this mode, the prefix will be
deleted if the last iptables rule for that prefix is removed.
.TP
echo "flush" >\fB/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/subnet_mask\fR
Flushes all bindings for the specific prefix. All static entries are also
flushed and become available for dynamic bindings.
.PP
Note! Entries are removed if the last iptables rule for a specific prefix is
deleted unless the persistent flag is set.
.PP
\fB* Logging\fR
.PP
The module logs binding add/timeout events to klog. This behaviour can be
disabled using the \fBdisable_log\fR module parameter.
.PP
\fB* Examples\fR
.PP
\fB1.\fR Map subnet 192.168.0.0/24 to subnets 20.0.0.0/26. SNAT only:
.PP
iptables \-t nat \-A POSTROUTING \-s 192.168.0.0/24 \-j DNETMAP \-\-prefix 20.0.0.0/26
.PP
Active hosts from the 192.168.0.0/24 subnet are mapped to 20.0.0.0/26. If the
packet from a not yet bound prenat address hits the rule and there are no free
or timed-out (TTL<0) entries in prefix 20.0.0.0/28, then a notice is logged to
klog and chain traversal continues. If packet from an already-bound prenat
address hits the rule, the binding's TTL value is reset to default_ttl and SNAT
is performed.
.PP
\fB2.\fR Use of \fB\-\-reuse\fR and \fB\-\-ttl\fR switches, multiple rule
interaction:
.PP
iptables \-t nat \-A POSTROUTING \-s 192.168.0.0/24 \-j DNETMAP \-\-prefix
20.0.0.0/26 \-\-reuse \-\-ttl 200
.PP
iptables \-t nat \-A POSTROUTING \-s 192.168.0.0/24 \-j DNETMAP \-\-prefix 30.0.0.0/26
.PP
Active hosts from 192.168.0.0/24 subnet are mapped to 20.0.0.0/26 with TTL =
200 seconds. If there are no free addresses in first prefix, the next one
(30.0.0.0/26) is used with the default TTL. It is important to note that the
first rule SNATs all flows whose source address is already actively bound
(TTL>0) to ANY prefix. The \fB\-\-reuse\fR parameter makes this functionality
work even for inactive (TTL<0) entries.
.PP
If both subnets are exhausted, then chain traversal continues.
.PP
\fB3.\fR Map 192.168.0.0/24 to subnets 20.0.0.0/26 in a bidirectional way:
.PP
iptables \-t nat \-A POSTROUTING \-s 192.168.0.0/24 \-j DNETMAP \-\-prefix 20.0.0.0/26
.PP
iptables \-t nat \-A PREROUTING \-j DNETMAP
.PP
If the host 192.168.0.10 generates some traffic, it gets bound to first free
address in the subnet \(em 20.0.0.0. Now, any traffic directed to 20.0.0.0 gets
DNATed to 192.168.0.10 as long as there is an active (TTL>0) binding. There is
no need to specify \fB\-\-prefix\fR parameter in a PREROUTING rule, because
this way, it DNATs traffic to all active prefixes. You could specify the prefix
you would like to make DNAT work for a specific prefix only.
.PP
\fB4.\fR Map 192.168.0.0/24 to subnets 20.0.0.0/26 with static assignments
only:
.PP
iptables \-t nat \-A POSTROUTING \-s 192.168.0.0/24 \-j DNETMAP \-\-prefix 20.0.0.0/26
\-\-static
.PP
echo "+192.168.0.10:20.0.0.1" >/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/20.0.0.0_26
.br
echo "+192.168.0.11:20.0.0.2" >/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/20.0.0.0_26
.br
echo "+192.168.0.51:20.0.0.3" >/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/20.0.0.0_26
.PP
This configuration will allow only preconfigured static bindings to work due to
the \fBstatic\fR rule option. Without this flag, dynamic bindings would be
created using non-static entries.
.PP
\fB5.\fR Persistent prefix:
.PP
iptables \-t nat \-A POSTROUTING \-s 192.168.0.0/24 \-j DNETMAP \-\-prefix 20.0.0.0/26
\-\-persistent
.br
\fBor\fR
.br
iptables \-t nat \-A POSTROUTING \-s 192.168.0.0/24 \-j DNETMAP \-\-prefix 20.0.0.0/26
.br
echo "+persistent" >/proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/20.0.0.0_26
.PP
Now, we can check the persistent flag of the prefix:
.br
cat /proc/net/xt_DNETMAP/20.0.0.0_26
.br
0 0 64 0 \fBpersistent\fR
.PP
Flush the iptables nat table and see that prefix is still in existence:
.br
iptables \-F \-t nat
.br
ls \-l /proc/net/xt_DNETMAP
.br
\-rw\-r\-\-r\-\- 1 root root 0 06\-10 09:01 20.0.0.0_26
.br
\-rw\-r\-\-r\-\- 1 root root 0 06\-10 09:01 20.0.0.0_26_stat
