This firewall application utilizes both tc-ebpf and xdp to provide stateful firewalling for an OpenZiti ziti-edge-tunnel installation and is meant as a replacement for packet filtering. It can also be used in conjunction with OpenZiti edge-routers or as a standalone fw. It now has built in EBPF based masquerade capability for both IPv4/IPv6.
zfw can now provide native IPv4/IPv6 masquerade operation for outbound pass through connections which can be enabled via:
sudo zfw -k, --masquerade <ifname>
This function requires that both ingress and egress TC filters are enabled on outbound interface.
This feature adds the ability to enter explicit deny rules by appending ```-d, --disable to the -I, --insert rule`` to both ingress and egress rules. Rule precedence is based on longest match prefix. If the prefix is the same then the precedence follows the order entry of the rules, which when listed will go from top to bottom for ports with in the same prefix e.g.
If you wanted to allow all tcp 443 traffic outbound except to 10.1.0.0/16 you would enter the following egress rules:
sudo zfw -I -c 10.1.0.0 -m 16 -l 443 -h 443 -t 0 -p tcp -z egress -d
sudo zfw -I -c 0.0.0.0 -m 0 -l 443 -h 443 -t 0 -p tcp -z egress
Listing the above with sudo zfw -L -z egress you would see:
EGRESS FILTERS:

The following illustrates the precedence with rules matching the same prefix:
Assume you want to block port 22 to address 172.16.240.137 and enter rules the following rules:
sudo zfw -I -c 172.16.240.139 -m 32 -l 1 -h 65535 -t 0 -p tcp -z egress
sudo zfw -I -c 172.16.240.139 -m 32 -l 22 -h 22 -t 0 -p tcp -z egress -d
sudo zfw -L -z egress

Rule Count: 2 / 250000
The rule listing shows the accept port range 1-65535 listed first and then the deny port 22 after. This would result in port 22 being allowed outbound because traffic would match the accept rule and never reach the deny rule.
The correct rule order entry would be:
sudo zfw -I -c 172.16.240.139 -m 32 -l 22 -h 22 -t 0 -p tcp -z egress -d
sudo zfw -I -c 172.16.240.139 -m 32 -l 1 -h 65535 -t 0 -p tcp -z egress
sudo zfw -L -z egress

This will result in traffic to port 22 matching the first rule and correctly being dropped as intended.

This new feature is currently meant to be used in stand alone FW mode (No OpenZiti). It can be run with OpenZiti on intercepted inbound connections but locally hosted services will require manually entered egress rules. See note in section
User space manual configurationwhich briefly describes installing zfw without OpenZiti.The feature allows for both IPv4 and IPv6 ingress/egress filters on a single external interface. i.e. This mode maintains state for outbound traffic associated with traffic allowed by ingress filters so there is no need to statically configure high port ranges for return traffic. The assumption is If you enable inbound ports you want to allow the stateful reply packets for udp and tcp.
An egress filter must be attached to the interface , -b, --outbound-filter <ifname> needs to be set ,and at least one interface needs to have had an ingress filter applied.
From cli:
sudo zfw -X ens33 -O /opt/openziti/bin/zfw_tc_ingress.o -z ingress
sudo zfw -X ens33 -O /opt/openziti/bin/zfw_tc_outbound_track.o -z egress
sudo /opt/openziti/bin/zfw --outbound-filter ens33
The above should result in all outbound traffic except for arp and icmp to be dropped on ens33 (icmp echo-reply
will also be dropped unless sudo zfw -e ens33 is set). ssh return traffic will also be allowed outbound
unless ssh -x ens33 is set.
In order to survive reboot you must have "OutboundPassThroughTrack": true which is default for ExternalInterfaces but can also be explicitly set for InternalInterfaces. If per interface rules is not false then the egress rules would need explicit -N for each rule in the same manner as ingress rules.
i.e. set /opt/openziti/etc/ebpf_config.json as below changing interface name only
{"InternalInterfaces":[], "ExternalInterfaces":[{"Name":"ens33", "PerInterfaceRules": false}]}
or equivalent InternalInterfaces config:
{"InternalInterfaces":[{"Name":"ens33", "OutboundPassThroughTrack": true}],"ExternalInterfaces":[]}
Then in executable script file /opt/openziti/bin/user/user_rules.sh
#!/bin/bash
# enable outbound filtering (Can be set before or after egress rule entry)
# If set before DNS rules some systems command response might be slow till
# a DNS egress rule is entered
sudo /opt/openziti/bin/zfw --outbound-filter ens33
#example outbound rules set by adding -z, --direction egress
#ipv4
sudo /opt/openziti/bin/zfw -I -c 0.0.0.0 -m 0 -l 53 -h 53 -t 0 -p udp --direction egress
sudo /opt/openziti/bin/zfw -I -c 172.16.240.139 -m 32 -l 5201 -h 5201 -t 0 -p tcp -z egress

- *Supports inbound ssh (Can be disabled via
sudo zfw -x <ifname | all>) (Care should be taken as this affects IPv4 as well) - Supports outbound stateful host connections (Inbound only if outbound initiated)
- Supports outbound passthrough tracking. Sessions initiated from non-ebpf enabled and ebpf enabled internal interfaces out

or manually applied with sudo
zfw -X <ifname> -O /opt/openziti/zfw_outbound_track.o -z egresswill allow stateful udp and tcp session traffic back in. - Support for inbound IPv6 filter destination rules. Currently only destination filtering is allowed.
e.g.
sudo zfw -I -c 2001:db9:: -m 64 -l 443 -h 443 -t 0 -p tcp - All IPv6 ingress Rules can be listed with the following command:
sudo zfw -L -6 all - individual IPv6 ingress rules can be listed with
sudo zfw -L -c <IPv6 CIDR> -m <CIDR LEN 0 - 128> - IPv6 rules can be individually deleted or flushed e.g.
sudo zfw -F
sudo zfw -D -c 2001:db9:: -m 64 -l 443 -h 443 -p tcp
- Monitor connection state via
sudo zfw -M, --monitor <ifname | all>optionallysudo zfw -v verbose <ifname | all>alternatively you can use the dedicated monitor binarysudo zfw_monitor -i <ifname | all>*These setting need to be in /opt/openziti/bin/user_rules.sh to be persistent across reboots.
Note: Some of the above IPv6 features are not fully supported with OpenZiti yet. Features like
tproxy and ziti0 forwarding will not work completely till updates are released in OpenZiti.
OpenZiti routers do support IPv6 fabric connections using DNS names in the config with corresponding
AAAA records defined. ziti-edge-tunnel supports ipv6 interception but the IPC events channel does
not include the intercept IPv6 addresses, so currently IPv6 services would require manual zfw rule
entry. Similarly to IPv4, IPv6 rules can be used to forward packets to the host OS by setting
-t, --tproxy-port 0 in the insert command.
To build / install zfw from source. Click here!
The program is designed to be deployed as systemd services if deployed via .deb package with an existing ziti-edge-tunnel(v22.5 +) installation on Ubuntu 22.04(amd64/arm64)service installation. If you don't currently have ziti-edge-tunnel installed and an operational OpenZiti network built, follow these instructions.
- Install binary deb or rpm package (refer to workflow for detail pkg contents)
Debian 12/ Ubuntu 22.04+
sudo dpkg -i zfw-tunnel_<ver>_<arch>.deb
RedHat 9.4
sudo yum install zfw-tunnel-<ver>.<arch>.rpm
Note if running firewalld you will need to at a minimum set each interface you enable tc ebpf on to the trusted zone or equivalent. e.g. firewall-cmd --permanent --zone=trusted --add-interface=ens33 or firewalld will drop traffic before it reaches the zfw filters.
Install from source ubuntu 22.04+ / Debian 12+ / Redhat 9.4 build / install zfw from source
The program is designed to integrated into an existing Openziti ziti-router installation if ziti router has been deployed via ziti_auto_enroll
instructions. Running with ziti router is optional and zfw router can be run as a standalone FW as mentioned in the User space manual configuration section below.
- Install binary deb package (refer to workflow for detail pkg contents)
sudo dpkg -i zfw-router_<ver>_<arch>.deb
Install from source ubuntu 22.04+ / Debian 12 / Redhat 9.4 build / install zfw from source
The following instructions pertain to both zfw-tunnel and zfw-router. Platform specific functions will be noted explicitly
Packages files will be installed in the following directories.
/etc/systemd/system <systemd service files>
/usr/sbin <symbolic link to zfw executable>
/opt/openziti/etc : <config files>
/opt/openziti/bin : <binary executables, executable scripts, binary object files>
/opt/openziti/bin/user/: <user configured rules>
Configure:
- Edit interfaces (zfw-tunnel) note: zfw for ziti-router will automatically add lanIf: from config.yml when
/opt/openziti/bin/start_ebpf_router.pyis run the first time and OpenZiti router is installed and configured.
sudo cp /opt/openziti/etc/ebpf_config.json.sample /opt/openziti/etc/ebpf_config.json
sudo vi /opt/openziti/etc/ebpf_config.json
- Adding interfaces Replace ens33 in line with:{"InternalInterfaces":[{"Name":"ens33" ,"OutboundPassThroughTrack": false, "PerInterfaceRules": false}], "ExternalInterfaces":[]} Replace with interface that you want to enable for ingress firewalling / openziti interception and optionally ExternalInterfaces if running containers or other subtending devices (Described in more detail later in this README.md).
i.e. ens33
{"InternalInterfaces":[{"Name":"ens33"}], "ExternalInterfaces":[]}
Note if you want to add more than one add to list
{"InternalInterfaces":[{"Name":"ens33"}, {"Name":"ens37"}], "ExternalInterfaces":[]}
- Add user configured rules:
sudo cp /opt/openziti/bin/user/user_rules.sh.sample /opt/openziti/bin/user/user_rules.sh
sudo vi /opt/openziti/bin/user/user_rules.sh
- Enable services:(zfw-tunnel)
sudo systemctl enable ziti-fw-init.service
sudo systemctl enable ziti-wrapper.service
sudo systemctl restart ziti-edge-tunnel.service
- Enable services:(zfw-router)
sudo /opt/openziti/bin/start_ebpf_router.py
The Service/Scripts will automatically configure ufw (if enabled) to hand off to ebpf on configured interface(s). Exception is icmp which must be manually enabled if it's been disabled in ufw.
/etc/ufw/before.rules:
-A ufw-before-input -p icmp --icmp-type echo-request -j ACCEPT
Also to allow icmp echos to reach the ip of attached interface you would need to set icmp to enabled in the /opt/openziti/bin/user/user_rules.sh file i.e.
sudo zfw -e ens33
sudo systemctl restart ziti-wrapper.service

Services configured via the openziti controller for ingress on the running ziti-edge-tunnel/ziti-router identity will auto populate into the firewall's inbound rule list.
Also note for zfw-tunnel xdp is enabled on the tunX interface that ziti-edge tunnel is attached to support functions like bi-directional ip transparency which would otherwise not be possible without this firewall/wrapper.
You can verify this as follows:
sudo ip link show tun0
expected output:
9: tun0: <POINTOPOINT,MULTICAST,NOARP,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 xdpgeneric qdisc fq_codel state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 500
link/none
prog/xdp id 249 tag 06c4719358c6de42 jited <This line will be there if exp forwarder is running>
The firewall can support subtending devices for two interface scenarios i.e. external and trusted.
external inet <----> (ens33)ebpf-router <----> trusted client(s)
with zfw_tc_ingress.o applied ingress on ens33 and zfw_tc_oubound_track.o applied egress on ens33 the router will statefully track outbound udp and tcp connections on ens33 and allow the associated inbound traffic. While running in this mode it does not make sense to add ziti tproxy rules and is meant for running as a traditional fw. As be for you can also create passthrough FW rules (set -t --tproxy-port to 0) which would also make sense in the mode for specific internet-initiated traffic you might want to allow in.
TCP: If the tcp connections close gracefully then the entries will remove upon connection closure. if not, then there is a 60-minute timeout that will remove the in active state if no traffic seen in either direction.
UDP: State will remain active as long as packets tuples matching SRCIP/SPORT/DSTIP/DPORT are seen in either direction within 30 seconds. If no packets seen in either direction the state will expire. If an external packet enters the interface after expiring the entry will be deleted. if an egress packet fined a matching expired state it will return the state to active.
In order to support this per interface rule awareness was added which allows each port range within a prefix to match a list of connected interfaces. On a per interface basis you can decide to honor that list or not via a per-prefix-rules setting in the following manner via the zfw utility
In order to enable outbound tracking you need to add an egress tc filter to the interface where traffic will be egressing.
This is performaed with the following cli command: sudo zfw -X <ifname> -O <egress tc object file> -z, --direction egress.
e.g.
sudo zfw -X ens33 -O /opt/openziti/bin/zfw_tc_outbound_track.o --direction egress
sudo vi /opt/openziti/etc/ebpf_config.json
{"InternalInterfaces":[{"Name":"ens37","OutboundPassThroughTrack": false, PerInterfaceRules: false}],
"ExternalInterfaces":[{"Name":"ens33", OutboundPassThroughTrack: true, PerInterfaceRules: true}]}
The above JSON sets up ens33 to be an internal interface (No outbound tracking) and ens33 as an external interface with outbound tracking (Default for External Interface). It also automatically adds runs the sudo zfw -P ens33 so ens33 (default for ExternalInterfaces) which requires -N to add inbound rules to it and will ignore rules where it is not in the interface list. Keys "OutboundPassThroughTrack" and "PerInterfaceRules" are shown with their default values, you only need to add them if you want change the default operation for the interface type. Note: if ebpf is enabled on an interface before it has ip address assigned a rule assigned with that interface name and -N it will not show up until at least one diag command is toggled or ebpf is disabled and re-enabled on it via -X, --set-tc-filter.
sudo vi /opt/openziti/etc/ebpf_config.json
{"InternalInterfaces":[{"Name":"ens37","OutboundPassthroughTrack": true, PerInterfaceRules: false}],
"ExternalInterfaces":[]}
Double check that your json formatting is correct since mistakes could render the firewall inoperable.
After editing disable zfw and restart ziti-edge-wrapper service
(zfw-tunnel)
sudo zfw -Q
sudo /opt/openziti/bin/start_ebpf_tunnel.py
sudo systemctl restart ziti-edge-wrapper.service
(zfw-router)
sudo zfw -Q
sudo systemctl restart ziti-router.service
To support L2tpV3 over ziti with l2tp tunnel terminating on the same vm as ziti-edge-tunnel. In order to support this a unique ZITI_DNS_IP_RANGE must be set on both vms terminating l2tpv3. The source of the L2tpv3 tunnel on each zet host needs to be set to the ip address assigned to the ziti0 interface which will be the first host address in the ZITI_DNS_IP_RANGE. In addition you will need to enable ebpf outbound tracking on the loopback interface. This can be setup vi /opt/openziti/etc/ebpf_config.json i.e.
{"InternalInterfaces":[{"Name":"eth0", "OutboundPassThroughTrack": false, "PerInterfaceRules": false}, {"Name":"lo", "OutboundPassThroughTrack": true}],"ExternalInterfaces":[]}
In order to allow internal tunneler connections over ziti the default operation has been set to not delete any tunX link routes. This will disable the ability to support transparency. There is an environmental variable TRANSPARENT_MODE='true' that can be set in the /opt/openziti/etc/ziti-edge-tunnel.env file to enable deletion of tunX routes if bi-directional transparency is required at the expense of disabling internal tunneler interception.
Traffic from containers like docker appears just like passthrough traffic to ZFW so you configure it the same as described above for normal external pass-through traffic.
sudo systemctl stop ziti-wrapper.service
sudo dpkg -i <zfw-tunnel_<ver>_<arch>.deb
After updating reboot the system
sudo reboot
sudo dpkg -i zfw-router_<ver>_<arch>.deb
After updating reboot the system
sudo reboot
Summary rules below will no longer be inserted and will be replaced with explicit host rules:
(removed)
accept 0000000000000000000000 tcp 0.0.0.0/0 100.64.0.0/10 dpts=1:65535 TUNMODE redirect:ziti0 []
accept 0000000000000000000000 tcp 0.0.0.0/0 100.64.0.0/10 dpts=1:65535 TUNMODE redirect:ziti0 []
(example new dynamic rule)
5XzC8mf1RrFO2vmfHGG5GL tcp 0.0.0.0/0 100.64.0.5/32 dpts=5201:5201 TUNMODE redirect:ziti0 []
A rule will also be entered for the ziti resolver ip upon the first configured hostname based service i.e.
accept 0000000000000000000000 udp 0.0.0.0/0 100.64.0.2/32 dpts=53:53 TUNMODE redirect:ziti0 []
This entry will remain unless ziti-edge-tunnel is stopped and will again be reentered upon reading the first hostname based service entry
If wild card hostnames are used i.e. *.test.ziti then zfw will enter summary rules for the entire ziti DNS range for the specific ports defined for the service i.e.
accept 0000000000000000000000 tcp 0.0.0.0/0 100.64.0.0/10 dpts=5201:5201 TUNMODE redirect:ziti0 []
accept 0000000000000000000000 udp 0.0.0.0/0 100.64.0.0/10 dpts=5201:5201 TUNMODE redirect:ziti0 []
IMPORTANT: These entries will remain until as long as there is at least one wildcard in a service using the port/port range via cli and will not be removed by ziti service deletion. It is recommended to use single ports with wild card since the low port acts as a key and thus the first service that gets entered will dictate the range for the ports and there is only one prefix.
ziti-edge-tunnel/ziti-router will automatically populate rules for configured ziti services so the following is if you want to configure additional rules outside of the automated ones. zfw-tunnel will also auto-populate /opt/openziti/bin/user/user_rules.sh with listening ports in the config.yml.
Note the zfw-router_<version>_<arch>.deb / zfw-tunnel-<ver>.<arch>.rpm will install an un-enabled service fw-init.service. If you install the zfw-router package without an OpenZiti ziti-router installation and enable this service it will start the ebpf fw after reboot and load the commands from /opt/openziti/bin/user/user_rules.sh. You will also need to manually copy the /opt/openziti/etc/ebpf_config.json.sample to ebpf_config.json and edit interface name. If you later decide to install ziti-router this service should be disabled and you should evaluate whether the existing ebpf_config.json include the ziti lanIf ifname. /opt/openziti/bin/start_ebpf_router.py
(All commands listed in this section need to be put in /opt/openziti/bin/user/user_rules.shin order to survive reboot)
By default ssh is enabled to pass through to the ip address of the attached interface from any source.
If secondary addresses exist on the interface this will only work for the first 10. After that you would need
to add manual entries via zfw -I.
NOTE: For environments where the IP will change zfw should detect the change with in 1 minute. It is highly recommended that a manual ssh rule is entered in /opt/openziti/bin/user_rules.sh with an entry for the entire subnet as backup unless you have either a manual static address or reserved DHCP address. e.g if subnet is 192.168.1.0/24.
#!/bin/bash
sudo /opt/openziti/bin/zfw -I -c 192.168.1.0 -m 24 -l 22 -h 22 -t 0 -p tcp
The following command will disable default ssh action to pass to the IP addresses of the local interface and will fall through to rule check instead where a more specific rule could be applied. This is a per interface setting and can be set for all interfaces except loopback. This would need to be put in /opt/openziti/bin/user/user_rules.sh to survive reboot.
- Disable
sudo zfw -x <ens33 | all>
- Enable
sudo zfw -x <ens33 | all> -d
- Enable
sudo zfw --vrrp-enable <ens33 | all>
- Disable
sudo zfw --vrrp-enable <ens33 | all> -d
The -t, --tproxy-port is has a dual purpose one it to signify the tproxy port used by openziti routers in tproxy mode and the other is to identify either local passthrough with value of 0 and the other is tunnel redirect mode with value of 65535.
- Example Insert If you disable default ssh handling with a device interface ip of 172.16.240.1 and you want to insert a user rule with source filtering that only allows source ip 10.1.1.1/32 to reach 172.16.240.1:22.
Particularly notice -t 0 which means that matched packets will pass to the local OS stack and are not redirected to tproxy ports or tunnel interface.
sudo zfw -I -c 172.16.240.1 -m 32 -o 10.1.1.1 -n 32 -p tcp -l 22 -h 22 -t 0
- Example Delete
sudo zfw -D -c 172.16.240.1 -m 32 -o 10.1.1.1 -n 32 -p tcp -l 22
- Example: Remove all rule entries from FW both ingress and egress
sudo zfw -F
- Example: Remove all ingress rules from FW
sudo zfw -F -z ingress
- Example: Remove all egress rules from FW
sudo zfw -F -z egress
Example: Monitor ebpf trace messages
sudo zfw -M <ifname>|all
