[22.02] Firewall fw4 issue

Hi all.
I have a very basic follow firewall configuration:

root@OpenWrt:/# uci show firewall 
firewall.@defaults[0]=defaults
firewall.@defaults[0].input='ACCEPT'
firewall.@defaults[0].output='ACCEPT'
firewall.@defaults[0].forward='REJECT'
firewall.@defaults[0].custom_chains='1'
firewall.@defaults[0].drop_invalid='1'
firewall.@defaults[0].synflood_protect='1'
firewall.@defaults[0].synflood_rate='25/s'
firewall.@defaults[0].synflood_burst='50'
firewall.@defaults[0].tcp_ecn='1'
firewall.@defaults[0].tcp_syncookies='1'
firewall.@defaults[0].tcp_window_scaling='1'

After commit, typing command reload command:
fw4 reload

an issue occur (fw4 script equipted with set -x):

root@OpenWrt:/# fw4 reload

Thanks in advance for support.

Fabrizio.

Can you remove the following line

firewall.@defaults[0].custom_chains='1'

Do you need it?

Hi.
I don't need.
I removed it but issue is there.
the problem seems related to uc file /usr/share/firewall4/main.uc that call ./usr/share/firewall4/templates/ruleset.uc.

Hi.
seems that fail the nft add command for all add rules.

Moreover:

root@OpenWrt:/# nft -i
nft: interactive CLI not supported in this build

Are there some specific package to add?

regards

  • What happens when you reset the router?
  • Are you using custom firewall files or rules?
  • Are you properly using UCI on command line or /etc/config/firewall to make firewall rules?

See:

Hi all.
I checked config-5.15:
CONFIG_NF_TABLES_INET was not set.
Enabling it, nft commands work and fw4 start correctly.

Thanks.
Fabrizio

In the future, you may wish to note that you built the image.

Glad you got it working.

Hi.

In the future, you may wish to note that you built the image.
