I allow state from non syn packets so I don't check for invalid's and then just the standard allows On 18 August 2018 at 14:13, Mike Everest <mike@duxtel.com> wrote:
Hi Alex,
If you don't have certainty of symmetric routing, then connection tracking has limited use because packets can be easily interpreted as 'invalid' if router received reply packet to a connection that was stablished via another router outbound.
For asymmetric routing, you need to set up your firewall filter rules without any reference to connections: so no connection-mark, nat-state, tcp-established/new/related, and so on.
Cheers!

Hi
ROS has a default of tcp-established-timeout: 1d
But I have asym routing and not all the routers will see syn nor fin. I am thinking of bringing this down to 2 hours to match up with linux timeout .
currently i have keep alive set to 30 min on my linux boxes.
I don't think there is any reason why this should cause an issue. ???
