Setting up IPS/inline for Linux
|
|
|
|
In this guide will be explained how to work with Suricata in inline mode and
|
|
how to set iptables for that purpose.
|
|
First start with compiling Suricata with NFQ support. For instructions see
|
|
Ubuntu_Installation.
|
|
For more information about NFQ and iptables, see suricata.yaml.
|
|
To check if you have NFQ enabled in your Suricata, enter the following command:
|
|
|
|
suricata --build-info
|
|
|
|
and examine if you have NFQ between the features.
|
|
To run suricata with the NFQ mode, you have to make use of the -q option. This
|
|
option tells Suricata which of the queue numbers it should use.
|
|
|
|
sudo suricata -c /etc/suricata/suricata.yaml -q 0
|
|
|
|
|
|
Iptables configuration
|
|
|
|
First of all it is important to know which traffic you would like to send to
|
|
Suricata. Traffic that passes your computer or traffic that is generated by
|
|
your computer.
|
|
|
|
If Suricata is running on a gateway and is meant to protect the computers
|
|
behind that gateway you are dealing with the first scenario: forward_ing .
|
|
If Suricata has to protect the computer it is running on, you are dealing with
|
|
the second scenario: host (see drawing 2).
|
|
These two ways of using Suricata can also be combined.
|
|
The easiest rule in case of the gateway-scenario to send traffic to Suricata
|
|
is:
|
|
|
|
sudo iptables -I FORWARD -j NFQUEUE
|
|
|
|
In this case, all forwarded traffic goes to Suricata.
|
|
In case of the host situation, these are the two most simple iptable rules;
|
|
|
|
sudo iptables -I INPUT -j NFQUEUE
|
|
sudo iptables -I OUTPUT -j NFQUEUE
|
|
|
|
It is possible to set a queue number. If you do not, the queue number will be 0
|
|
by default.
|
|
Imagine you want Suricata to check for example just TCP-traffic, or all
|
|
incoming traffic on port 80, or all traffic on destination-port 80, you can do
|
|
so like this:
|
|
|
|
sudo iptables -I INPUT -p tcp -j NFQUEUE
|
|
sudo iptables -I OUTPUT -p tcp -j NFQUEUE
|
|
|
|
In this case, Suricata checks just TCP traffic.
|
|
|
|
sudo iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --sport 80 -j NFQUEUE
|
|
sudo iptables -I OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j NFQUEUE
|
|
|
|
In this example, Suricata checks all input and output on port 80.
|
|
|
|
To see if you have set your iptables rules correct make sure Suricata is
|
|
running and enter:
|
|
|
|
sudo iptables -vnL
|
|
|
|
In the example you can see if packets are being logged.
|
|
This description of the use of iptables is the way to use it with IPv4. To use
|
|
it with IPv6 all previous mentioned commands have to start with 'ip6tables'. It
|
|
is also possible to let Suricata check both kinds of traffic.
|
|
There is also a way to use iptables with multiple networks (and interface
|
|
cards). Example:
|
|
|
|
sudo iptables -I FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -j NFQUEUE
|
|
sudo iptables -I FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -j NFQUEUE
|
|
|
|
The options -i (input) -o (output) can be combined with all previous mentioned
|
|
options
|
|
If you would stop Suricata and use internet, the traffic will not come through.
|
|
To make internet work correctly, you have to erase all iptable rules.
|
|
To erase all iptable rules, enter:
|
|
|
|
sudo iptables -F
|
|
