translating Linux to NetBSD for blocking traffic
Hi!
In the second video on https://nuzzle.hackerfactor.com/,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qqV0VCmlNe0 the author recommends the
following commands to reduce network attacks on a Linux host:
Disable ping:
/etc/sysctl.conf: set net.ipv4.icmp_echo_ignore_all = 1
No unreachable responses:
iptables -I OUTPUT -p icmp --icmp-type destination-unreachable -j DROP
Disable TCP RST:
iptables -I OUTPUT -p tcp --tcp-flags ALL RST,ACK -j DROP
And similar for IPv6:
Disable Ping:
iptables -O OUTPUT -p icmpv6 --icmpv6-type echo-reply -J DROP
No unreachable responses:
ip6tables -I OUTPUT -p ipv6-icmp --icmpv6-type destination-unreachable -j DROP
ip6tables -I OUTPUT -p ipv6-icmp --icmpv6-type address-unreachable -j DROP
ip6tables -I OUTPUT -p ipv6-icmp --icmpv6-type port-unreachable -j DROP
I guess the equivalent tool on NetBSD would be npf(4), but how
would I configure it to do the above?
Do you see any major downsides to these settings?
Thanks,
Thomas
