28.Dt NG_NAT 4
29.Os
30.Sh NAME
31.Nm ng_nat
32.Nd "NAT netgraph node type"
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34.In netgraph/ng_nat.h
35.Sh DESCRIPTION
36An
37.Nm
38node performs network address translation (NAT) of packets
39passing through it.
40A
41.Nm nat
42node uses
43.Xr libalias 3
44engine for packet aliasing.
45.Sh HOOKS
46This node type has two hooks:
47.Bl -tag -width ".Va out"
48.It Va out
49Packets received on this hook are considered outgoing and will be
50masqueraded to a configured address.
51.It Va in
52Packets coming on this hook are considered incoming and will be
53dealiased.
54.El
55.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
56This node type supports the generic control messages, plus the following:
57.Bl -tag -width foo
58.It Dv NGM_NAT_SET_IPADDR Pq Ic setaliasaddr
59Configure aliasing address for a node.
60After both hooks have been connected and aliasing address was configured,
61a node is ready for aliasing operation.
62.It Dv NGM_NAT_SET_MODE Pq Ic setmode
63Set node's operation mode using supplied
64.Vt "struct ng_nat_mode" .
65.Bd -literal
66struct ng_nat_mode {
67	uint32_t	flags;
68	uint32_t	mask;
69};
70/* Supported flags: */
71#define NG_NAT_LOG			0x01
72#define NG_NAT_DENY_INCOMING		0x02

75#define NG_NAT_RESET_ON_ADDR_CHANGE	0x20
76#define NG_NAT_PROXY_ONLY		0x40
77#define NG_NAT_REVERSE			0x80
78.Ed
79.It Dv NGM_NAT_SET_TARGET Pq Ic settarget
80Configure target address for a node.
81When an incoming packet not associated with any pre-existing aliasing
82link arrives at the host machine, it will be sent to the specified address.
83.It Dv NGM_NAT_REDIRECT_PORT Pq Ic redirectport
84Redirect incoming connections arriving to given port(s) to
85another host and port(s).
86The following
87.Vt "struct ng_nat_redirect_port"
88must be supplied as argument.
89.Bd -literal
90#define NG_NAT_DESC_LENGTH	64
91struct ng_nat_redirect_port {

96	uint16_t	alias_port;
97	uint16_t	remote_port;
98	uint8_t		proto;
99	char		description[NG_NAT_DESC_LENGTH];
100};
101.Ed
102.Pp
103Redirection is assigned an unique ID which is returned as
104response to this message, and
105information about redirection added to
106list of static redirects which later can be retrieved by
107.Dv NGM_NAT_LIST_REDIRECTS
108message.
109.It Dv NGM_NAT_REDIRECT_ADDR Pq Ic redirectaddr
110Redirect traffic for public IP address to a machine on the
111local network.
112This function is known as
113.Em static NAT .
114The following
115.Vt "struct ng_nat_redirect_addr"
116must be supplied as argument.
117.Bd -literal
118struct ng_nat_redirect_addr {
119	struct in_addr	local_addr;
120	struct in_addr	alias_addr;
121	char		description[NG_NAT_DESC_LENGTH];
122};
123.Ed
124.Pp
125Unique ID for this redirection is returned as response to this message.
126.It Dv NGM_NAT_REDIRECT_PROTO Pq Ic redirectproto
127Redirect incoming IP packets of protocol
128.Va proto
129(see
130.Xr protocols 5 )
131to a machine on the local network.
132The following
133.Vt "struct ng_nat_redirect_proto"
134must be supplied as argument.
135.Bd -literal
136struct ng_nat_redirect_proto {
137	struct in_addr	local_addr;
138	struct in_addr	alias_addr;
139	struct in_addr	remote_addr;
140	uint8_t		proto;
141	char		description[NG_NAT_DESC_LENGTH];
142};
143.Ed
144.Pp
145Unique ID for this redirection is returned as response to this message.
146.It Dv NGM_NAT_REDIRECT_DYNAMIC Pq Ic redirectdynamic
147Mark redirection with specified ID as dynamic, i.e., it will serve
148for exactly one next connection and then will be automatically
149deleted from internal links table.
150Only fully specified links can be made dynamic.
151The redirection with this ID is also immediately deleted from
152user-visible list of static redirects (available through
153.Dv NGM_NAT_LIST_REDIRECTS
154message).
155.It Dv NGM_NAT_REDIRECT_DELETE Pq Ic redirectdelete
156Delete redirection with specified ID (currently active
157connections are not affected).
158.It Dv NGM_NAT_ADD_SERVER Pq Ic addserver
159Add another server to a pool.
160This is used to transparently offload network load on a single server
161and distribute the load across a pool of servers, also known as
162.Em LSNAT
163(RFC 2391).
164The following
165.Vt "struct ng_nat_add_server"
166must be supplied as argument.
167.Bd -literal
168struct ng_nat_add_server {
169	uint32_t	id;
170	struct in_addr	addr;
171	uint16_t	port;
172};
173.Ed
174.Pp
175First, the redirection is set up by
176.Dv NGM_NAT_REDIRECT_PORT
177or
178.Dv NGM_NAT_REDIRECT_ADDR .
179Then, ID of that redirection is used in multiple
180.Dv NGM_NAT_ADD_SERVER
181messages to add necessary number of servers.
182For redirections created by
183.Dv NGM_NAT_REDIRECT_ADDR ,
184the
185.Va port
186is ignored and could have any value.
187Original redirection's parameters
188.Va local_addr
189and
190.Va local_port
191are also ignored after
192.Dv NGM_NAT_ADD_SERVER
193was used (they are effectively replaced by server pool).
194.It Dv NGM_NAT_LIST_REDIRECTS Pq Ic listredirects
195Return list of configured static redirects as
196.Vt "struct ng_nat_list_redirects" .
197.Bd -literal
198struct ng_nat_listrdrs_entry {
199	uint32_t	id;		/* Anything except zero */
200	struct in_addr	local_addr;
201	struct in_addr	alias_addr;
202	struct in_addr	remote_addr;
203	uint16_t	local_port;
204	uint16_t	alias_port;
205	uint16_t	remote_port;
206	uint16_t	proto;		/* Valid proto or NG_NAT_REDIRPROTO_ADDR */
207	uint16_t	lsnat;		/* LSNAT servers count */
208	char		description[NG_NAT_DESC_LENGTH];
209};
210struct ng_nat_list_redirects {
211	uint32_t		total_count;
212	struct ng_nat_listrdrs_entry redirects[];
213};
214#define NG_NAT_REDIRPROTO_ADDR	(IPPROTO_MAX + 3)
215.Ed
216.Pp
217Entries of the
218.Va redirects
219array returned in the unified format for all redirect types.
220Ports are meaningful only if protocol is either TCP or UDP
221and
222.Em static NAT
223redirection (created by
224.Dv NGM_NAT_REDIRECT_ADDR )
225is indicated by
226.Va proto
227set to
228.Dv NG_NAT_REDIRPROTO_ADDR .
229If
230.Va lsnat
231servers counter is greater than zero, then
232.Va local_addr
233and
234.Va local_port
235are also meaningless.
236.It Dv NGM_NAT_PROXY_RULE Pq Ic proxyrule
237Specify a transparent proxying rule (string must be
238supplied as argument).
239See
240.Xr libalias 3
241for details.
242.It Dv NGM_NAT_LIBALIAS_INFO Pq Ic libaliasinfo
243Return internal statistics of
244.Xr libalias 3
245instance as
246.Vt "struct ng_nat_libalias_info" .
247.Bd -literal
248struct ng_nat_libalias_info {
249	uint32_t	icmpLinkCount;
250	uint32_t	udpLinkCount;
251	uint32_t	tcpLinkCount;
252	uint32_t	sctpLinkCount;
253	uint32_t	pptpLinkCount;
254	uint32_t	protoLinkCount;
255	uint32_t	fragmentIdLinkCount;
256	uint32_t	fragmentPtrLinkCount;
257	uint32_t	sockCount;
258};
259.Ed
260In case of
261.Nm
262failed to retrieve a certain counter
263from its
264.Xr libalias
265instance, the corresponding field is returned as
266.Va UINT32_MAX .
267.It Dv NGM_NAT_SET_DLT Pq Ic setdlt
268Sets the data link type on the
269.Va in
270and
271.Va out
272hooks.
273Currently, supported types are
274.Cm DLT_RAW
275(raw IP datagrams , no offset applied, the default) and
276.Cm DLT_EN10MB
277(Ethernet). DLT_ definitions can be found in
278.In net/bpf.h .
279If you want to work on the
280.Xr ipfw 8
281level you must use no additional offset by specifying
282.Cm DLT_RAW .
283If, however, you attach
284.Nm
285to a network interface directly and
286.Cm EN10MB
287is specified, then the extra offset will be applied to take into account
288link-level header.
289In this mode the
290.Nm
291would also inspect appropriate type field in the Ethernet header and
292pass-through any datagrams that are not IP packets.
293.It Dv NGM_NAT_GET_DLT Pq Ic getdlt
294This control message returns the current data link type of the
295.Va in
296and
297.Va out
298hooks.
299.El
300.Pp
301In all redirection messages
302.Va local_addr
303and
304.Va local_port
305mean address and port of target machine in the internal network,
306respectively.
307If
308.Va alias_addr
309is zero, then default aliasing address (set by
310.Dv NGM_NAT_SET_IPADDR )
311is used.
312Connections can also be restricted to be accepted only
313from specific external machines by using non-zero
314.Va remote_addr
315and/or
316.Va remote_port .
317Each redirection assigned an ID which can be later used for
318redirection manipulation on individual basis (e.g., removal).
319This ID guaranteed to be unique until the node shuts down
320(it will not be reused after deletion), and is returned to
321user after making each new redirection or can be found in
322the stored list of all redirections.
323The
324.Va description
325passed to and from node unchanged, together with ID providing
326a way for several entities to concurrently manipulate
327redirections in automated way.
328.Sh SHUTDOWN
329This node shuts down upon receipt of a
330.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
331control message, or when both hooks are disconnected.
332.Sh EXAMPLES
333In the following example, the packets are injected into a
334.Nm nat
335node using the
336.Xr ng_ipfw 4
337node.
338.Bd -literal -offset indent
339# Create NAT node
340ngctl mkpeer ipfw: nat 60 out
341ngctl name ipfw:60 nat
342ngctl connect ipfw: nat: 61 in
343ngctl msg nat: setaliasaddr x.y.35.8
344
345# Divert traffic into NAT node
346ipfw add 300 netgraph 61 all from any to any in via fxp0
347ipfw add 400 netgraph 60 all from any to any out via fxp0
348
349# Let packets continue with after being (de)aliased
350sysctl net.inet.ip.fw.one_pass=0
351.Ed
352.Pp
353The
354.Nm
355node can be inserted right after the
356.Xr ng_iface 4
357node in the graph.
358In the following example, we perform masquerading on a
359serial line with HDLC encapsulation.

372The
373.Nm
374node can also be attached directly to the physical interface
375via
376.Xr ng_ether 4
377node in the graph.
378In the following example, we perform masquerading on a
