initial commit
This patch bootstrap the new nft-sync software. Basically, this
software aims to support two different setups:
1) Rule-set repository server. The software serves the nft rule-set to
clients that request the ruleset.
Basically from the system that acts as repository, you have to run:
# nft-sync -c ../contrib/nft-sync.conf.server
Then, from the client:
# nft-sync -c ../contrib/nft-sync.conf.client --fetch
Which displays the nft rule-set in the standard output, so you
can inspect the nft rule-set.
Alternatively, the client can also retrieve and apply the nft
rule-set using the pull command instead:
# nft-sync -c ../contrib/nft-sync.conf.client --pull
[ Note that this command above does not work in this bootstrap yet ]
2) Rule-set synchronization: In case of primary-backup and multiprimary
firewall configurations, the software makes sure that the firewall
cluster is deploying the same filtering policy. In this case, you have
to launch the process:
# nft-sync -c ../contrib/nft-sync.conf --sync
[ Note that this command above does not work in this bootstrap yet ]
This bootstrap provides the basic infrastructure as a proof-of-concept.
Many of the necessary features are still lacking:
* Implement --sync and --pull commands.
* Interaction with nft through libnftnl, which allows the software to
retrieve the local nft rule-set, as well as to parse it and apply it.
* SSL support, specifically the repository mode needs it to make sure
nobody can steal your filtering policy from the network.
* IPv6 support.
* Allow to serve different rule-sets in the repository mode.
And many others that will be added progressively.
