archwrt-dispatcher

Dispatcher for handling iptables nat forwarding and others by systemd service.

Description

Since netctl is a dirty and quick solution, this is quick and dirty.

LAN interface

Set lan in /etc/archwrt/dispatcher/dispatcher.conf, default is 'br0'

Using netctl.profile

Just add the following to your netctl.profile: (assuming the WAN interface is net0)

ExecUpPost="systemctl start archwrt-dispatcher.service;"
ExecDownPre="systemctl stop archwrt-dispatcher.service;"

---

Tipically, the above use the default interface from ip route. If you want to assign an interface manually, use the following instead: (assuming the WAN interface is net0)

ExecUpPost="systemctl start archwrt-dispatcher@net0.service;"
ExecDownPre="systemctl stop archwrt-dispatcher@net0.service;"

For PPPoE profiles, create the following scripts: (Don't forget the execute permission)__

/etc/ppp/ip-up.d/10-archwrt-dispatcher.sh

#!/bin/bash
systemctl start "archwrt-dispatcher.service"

/etc/ppp/ip-down.d/10-archwrt-dispatcher.sh

#!/bin/bash
systemctl stop "archwrt-dispatcher.service"

---

Tipically, the above use the default interface from ip route. If you want to assign the interface "manually", use the following instead:

/etc/ppp/ip-up.d/10-archwrt-dispatcher.sh

#!/bin/bash
systemctl start "archwrt-dispatcher@${IFNAME}.service"

/etc/ppp/ip-down.d/10-archwrt-dispatcher.sh

#!/bin/bash
systemctl stop "archwrt-dispatcher@${IFNAME}.service"

Nat rules

See nat_type in dispatcher.conf Currently support:

• iptables, iptables-fullconenat
• nftables, nftables-fullcone
• einat-ebpf

Managing Services

Set services array in the /etc/archwrt/dispatcher/dispatcher.conf

iptables Filter table

The default policy for INPUT is DROP If you need unblock a port, edit the /etc/archwrt/dispatcher/filter.rules e.g. To open tcp port 80, add this line to the end of the INPUT Chain:

-A INPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
