Workshop Description: Firewall Powerhouse: Guide to Connection Tracking, Filtering, NAT, Mangle, and UPnP
Join our intensive workshop, "Firewall Powerhouse: Guide to Connection Tracking, Filtering, NAT, Mangle, and UPnP," designed to provide you with expert knowledge and hands-on experience in configuring and managing MikroTik firewalls. This workshop is ideal for network administrators, IT professionals, and enthusiasts looking to deepen their understanding of network security and enhance their career prospects.
Workshop Highlights:
1. Packet Flow in RouterOS
- Explore the packet flow diagram to understand how packets are processed in RouterOS.
- Learn the sequence of packet processing through various stages like pre-routing, routing decision, post-routing, and more.
- Understand the interaction between different firewall features (filter, NAT, mangle) within the packet flow.
2. Connection Tracking
- Learn to enable and configure connection tracking to manage firewall rules and network connections.
- Understand the role of connection tracking in maintaining stateful firewall rules, tracking active connections, and enhancing network security and performance.
3. Filter
- Chains (default/custom): Master the default chains (input, forward, output) and create custom chains for better organization and management of firewall rules.
- Rule Actions: Gain comprehensive knowledge of all firewall rule actions, including accept, drop, reject, and log, to ensure precise control over network traffic.
- Common Conditions: Apply frequently used conditions such as source/destination address, protocol, port numbers, and interfaces to create effective and targeted firewall policies.
4. NAT
- Chains (default/custom): Configure srcnat and dstnat chains to manipulate the source and destination addresses of packets. Learn the differences between source NAT (srcnat) and destination NAT (dstnat) and their practical applications.
- Rule Actions: Explore various actions like masquerade, src-nat, and dst-nat to implement NAT policies. Understand the appropriate use of these actions to hide internal IP addresses and redirect traffic.
- Common Conditions: Implement common NAT rule conditions to ensure that NAT rules are applied appropriately based on factors like source/destination IP, interface, and protocol.
- NAT Helpers: Enable and configure NAT helpers for protocols like FTP and SIP to ensure proper handling and seamless communication through the NAT device.
5. Mangle
- Chains (default/custom): Create custom mangle chains to mark packets for special handling. Understand the role of mangle in modifying packet headers and tagging traffic for routing or quality of service (QoS) purposes.
- Rule Actions: Utilize actions like mark-packet and mark-connection to label packets and connections for further processing. Learn how these actions integrate with other RouterOS features like queues and routing.
- Common Conditions: Use common conditions in mangle rules to selectively apply marks based on criteria such as IP addresses, ports, interfaces, and protocols.
- Advanced Conditions: Dive into complex conditions available in the advanced and extra tabs to create sophisticated mangle rules tailored to specific network requirements and scenarios.
