Vieri, Congrats, buddy! You figured it out. Yes, it wasn’t a Shorewall issue, as I also suspected! In my experience I always learn a ton troubleshooting issues like this! I’m sure you know way more now! 🙌 Bill Sent from my iPhone > On Feb 5, 2022, at 11:55 AM, Vieri Di Paola wrote: > >

Just in case someone comes across a similar issue, there was absolutely nothing wrong with the shorewall router. The only problem was with 3 specific hosts which were all HPE iLO 5 systems. I tried arping to try to update their ARP caches as accessing them via ssh didn't really give me any useful t

Like u said, Shorewall tries to consolidate “IP ROUTING” and “system configuration“ into one place with their own Shorewall syntaxt”. I don’t want to diss on Shorewall, in a Shorewall forum, but if u have to learn “IP ROUTING” and “system configuration” to make Shorewall “work”, then what’s th

What device are you using to configure your vLANs? Likely your switch, right? Switches can do “bridging” too. I would “look there”, if you feel that some bridging is happening that your switch is facilitating. Without a network map, I don’t see how I can help. It sounds like u got a lot going

This isn't a "Shorewall" issue. It's an "IP ROUTING" issue. Look at my last response. Bill On Mon, Jan 24, 2022 at 6:37 PM Vieri Di Paola wrote: > In the failing scenario where a host in vlan 1 with IP addr. > 10.215.111.210 cannot ping a host in vlan 18 with IP addr. > 10.215.144.251 this i

Yep, you're right. You just need to look at your NIC (Network Interface Card) configuration. Make sure your Shorewall device has an IP for both "Networks". # sudo pico /etc/network/interfaces... on DEBIAN to edit your network config Then do ... # sudo route -n

In the failing scenario where a host in vlan 1 with IP addr. 10.215.111.210 cannot ping a host in vlan 18 with IP addr. 10.215.144.251 this is what I see on the SW FW: # tcpdump -n -i lan -e vlan and host 10.215.144.251 dropped privs to pcap tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v[v]... for ful

Thanks, Bill. As shown in the dump, my Shorewall system is a router. I think the problem may lie in routing rules/netmasks/ARP. I have other hosts in the same vlans as in my first example that perfectly reply to ICMP. For instance, host in vlan 1 with IP addr. 10.215.111.210 can successfully ping

S ... if Shorewall is acting as your "bridge", what does this mean? It means that the Shorewall device has "an IP" on both networks ... AND it's configured to act as Bridge. I would have to check my Firewall settings to remember how I did that. My Firewall acts as my ROUTER which is essentiall

When you move across a "Network" to another "Network", you need a "Bridge" Is your Firewall acting as a Bridge across those two "Networks"? I'm assuming those IP's are on your "internal" network. Bill On Mon, Jan 24, 2022 at 1:55 PM Vieri Di Paola wrote: > Hi, > > I'm puzzled as to why I cann
