The v6 NAT duplication only triggered for DomainSet destinations
(modern DNS path). Legacy dynamic routes use a 0.0.0.0/0 prefix
destination, so the v6 NAT rule was never created.
Add a Dynamic field to RouterPair so the firewall manager can
distinguish dynamic routes from exit nodes (both use /0 prefixes).
Set it from route.IsDynamic() in routeToRouterPair and propagate
through GetInversePair. Both nftables and iptables managers check
pair.Dynamic instead of destination shape.
Also accumulate errors in RemoveNatRule so v6 cleanup is attempted
even if v4 removal fails.
The legacy DNS resolver path creates NAT pairs with destination
0.0.0.0/0 (a prefix, not a DomainSet). The v6 NAT duplication only
triggered for DomainSets, so legacy dynamic routes never got a v6
NAT rule.
Extract NeedsV6NATDuplicate and ToV6NatPair helpers that detect both
DomainSets and the v4 default wildcard 0.0.0.0/0. Both nftables and
iptables managers now use these for Add/RemoveNatRule, ensuring v6
NAT duplication works for both modern and legacy DNS resolver paths.
- Add IPv6 router dispatch to AddOutputDNAT/RemoveOutputDNAT in both
nftables and iptables managers (was hardcoded to v4 router only).
- Fix all DNAT and AddDNATRule dispatch methods to check Is6() first,
then error with ErrIPv6NotInitialized if v6 components are missing.
Previously the hasIPv6() && Is6() pattern silently fell through to
the v4 router for v6 addresses when v6 was not initialized.
- Add ErrIPv6NotInitialized sentinel error, replace all ad-hoc
"IPv6 not initialized" format strings across both managers.
- Rename sourcePort/targetPort to originalPort/translatedPort in all
DNAT method signatures to reflect actual DNAT semantics.
- Remove stale "localAddr must be IPv4" comments from interface.
- Port dnat changes from https://github.com/netbirdio/netbird/pull/4015 (nftables/iptables/userspace)
- For userspace: rewrite the original port to the target port
- Remember original destination port in conntrack
- Rewrite the source port back to the original port for replies
- Redirect incoming port 5353 to 22054 (tcp/udp)
- Revert port changes based on the network map received from management
- Adjust tracer to show NAT stages
adds NetFlow functionality to track and log network traffic information between peers, with features including:
- Flow logging for TCP, UDP, and ICMP traffic
- Integration with connection tracking system
- Resource ID tracking in NetFlow events
- DNS and exit node collection configuration
- Flow API and Redis cache in management
- Memory-based flow storage implementation
- Kernel conntrack counters and userspace counters
- TCP state machine improvements for more accurate tracking
- Migration from net.IP to netip.Addr in the userspace firewall
This specifically concerns the established/related rule since this one is not compatible with iptables-nft even if it is generated the same way by iptables-translate.
* Add gocritic linter
`gocritic` provides diagnostics that check for bugs, performance, and style issues
We disable the following checks:
- commentFormatting
- captLocal
- deprecatedComment
This PR contains many `//nolint:gocritic` to disable `appendAssign`.
Add a default firewall rule to allow netbird traffic to be handled
by the access control managers.
Userspace manager behavior:
- When running on Windows, a default rule is add on Windows firewall
- For Linux, we are using one of the Kernel managers to add a single rule
- This PR doesn't handle macOS
Kernel manager behavior:
- For NFtables, if there is a filter table, an INPUT rule is added
- Iptables follows the previous flow if running on kernel mode. If running
on userspace mode, it adds a single rule for INPUT and OUTPUT chains
A new checkerFW package has been introduced to consolidate checks across
route and access control managers.
It supports a new environment variable to skip nftables and allow iptables tests
* Optimize rules with All groups
* Use IP sets in ACLs (nftables implementation)
* Fix squash rule when we receive optimized rules list from management
* Extend protocol and firewall manager to handle old management
* Send correct empty firewall rules list when delete peer
* Add extra tests for firewall manager and uspfilter
* Work with inconsistent state
* Review note
* Update comment
