Re: [FW-1] How to enable ICMP with Checkpoint NG on Red Hat LINUX



Hi,

Thanks a lot for your help.
I did what you said and ICMP works now. Thanks a lot.

I still have problems with the ICMP redirect not being sent back to the
workstations.

I can see in the logs:
ICMP type 5 Code 1 (my re-direct packet I think) being out of state.

It must be somewhere in the Global Properties, but I cannot find it.

Any help on this would be most appreciated.

Thank for your help.
Simon

LINUX


In our environment we have the following rules

Rule x  my_net  any             icmp echo-request
                                                ?? traceroute

Rule x+1        any             my_net          icmp echo-reply
                                                Icmp time-exceeded
                                                Icmp dest-unreach
                                                Icmp param-prblm

In the global setting under Stateful Inspection the following are
ticked:
Statful UDP             Accept stateful UDP replies for unknown services

Stateful ICMP   Accept stateful ICMP replies
                        Accept stateful ICMP errors

Stateful Other IP Protocals     Accept stateful other IP protocol
replies for unknown services.


These rules have allowed us to ping and traceroute to the out-side.

How it helps.

Subject: [FW-1] How to enable ICMP with Checkpoint NG on Red Hat LINUX

Whatever I do I am unable to enable ICMP on Checkpoint NG running on
LINUX.
Even setting the Global Properties to Accept ICMP requests to First,
does
not make it work.

Ultimately I need to get ICMP direct to work. But just getting any sort
of
ICMP functions to work seems impossible.

I get the "ICMP packet out of state" error messages. I have read I need
to
make ICMP stateful. But I do not know how to do this.

I have seen some solutions but none of them seem to work for me.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
