A connection between two identical <b>10.0.0.0/14</b> networks behind the gateways <b>moon</b> and <b>sun</b> is set up. In order to make network routing work, the subnet behind <b>moon</b> sees the subnet behind <b>sun</b> as <b>10.4.0.0/14</b> whereas the subnet behind <b>sun</b> sees the subnet behind <b>moon</b> as <b>10.8.0.0/14</b>. The necessary network mappings are done on gateway <b>sun</b> using the iptables <b>MARK</b> and <b>NETMAP</b> targets. <p/> Upon the successful establishment of the IPsec tunnel, on gateway <b>moon</b> the directive <b>leftfirewall=yes</b> automatically inserts iptables-based firewall rules that let pass the tunneled traffic whereas on gateway <b>sun</b> the script indicated by <b>leftupdown=/etc/mark_updown</b> inserts iptables rules that set marks defined in the connection definition of <b>ipsec.conf</b> both on the inbound and outbound traffic, create the necessary NETMAP operations and forward the tunneled traffic. <p/> In order to test both tunnel and firewall, client <b>alice</b> behind gateway <b>moon</b> pings client <b>bob</b> located behind gateway <b>sun</b> and vice versa.
