    NAME

    
    
    faithd
    
     - FAITH IPv6/v4 translator daemon
    
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

    [-dp ] [-f configfile ] service [serverpath [serverargs ] ]  

    DESCRIPTION

    The utility provides IPv6-to-IPv4 TCP relay. It must be used on an IPv4/v6 dual stack router.

    When receives TCPv6 traffic, will relay the TCPv6 traffic to TCPv4 Destination for relayed TCPv4 connection will be determined by the last 4 octets of the original IPv6 destination. For example, if 3ffe:0501:4819:ffff:: is reserved for , and the TCPv6 destination address is 3ffe:0501:4819:ffff::0a01:0101 the traffic will be relayed to IPv4 destination 10.1.1.1

    To use translation service, an IPv6 address prefix must be reserved for mapping IPv4 addresses into. Kernel must be properly configured to route all the TCP connection toward the reserved IPv6 address prefix into the faith(4) pseudo interface, by using route(8) command. Also, sysctl(8) should be used to configure net.inet6.ip6.keepfaith to 1

    The router must be configured to capture all the TCP traffic toward reserved IPv6 address prefix, by using route(8) and sysctl(8) commands.

    The utility needs a special name-to-address translation logic, so that hostnames gets resolved into special IPv6 address prefix. For small-scale installation, use hosts(5). For large-scale installation, it is useful to have a DNS server with special address translation support. An implementation called totd is available at http://www.vermicelli.pasta.cs.uit.no/ipv6/software.html Make sure you do not propagate translated DNS records to normal DNS cloud, it is highly harmful.  

    Daemon mode

    When is invoked as a standalone program, will daemonize itself. The utility will listen to TCPv6 port service If TCPv6 traffic to port service is found, it relays the connection.

    Since listens to TCP port service it is not possible to run local TCP daemons for port service on the router, using inetd(8) or other standard mechanisms. By specifying serverpath to , you can run local daemons on the router. The utility will invoke local daemon at serverpath if the destination address is local interface address, and will perform translation to IPv4 TCP in other cases. You can also specify serverargs for the arguments for the local daemon.

    The following options are available:

    -d
    Debugging information will be generated using syslog(3).
    -f configfile
    Specify a configuration file for access control. See below.
    -p
    Use privileged TCP port number as source port, for IPv4 TCP connection toward final destination. For relaying ftp(1), this flag is not necessary as special program code is supplied.

    The utility will relay both normal and out-of-band TCP data. It is capable of emulating TCP half close as well. The utility includes special support for protocols used by ftp(1). When translating FTP protocol, translates network level addresses in PORT/LPRT/EPRT and PASV/LPSV/EPSV commands.

    Inactive sessions will be disconnected in 30 minutes, to avoid stale sessions from chewing up resources. This may be inappropriate for some of the services (should this be configurable?).  

    inetd mode

    When is invoked via inetd(8), will handle connection passed from standard input. If the connection endpoint is in the reserved IPv6 address prefix, will relay the connection. Otherwise, will invoke service-specific daemon like telnetd(8), by using the command argument passed from inetd(8).

    The utility determines operation mode by the local TCP port number, and enables special protocol handling whenever necessary/possible. For example, if is invoked via inetd(8) on FTP port, it will operate as a FTP relay.

    The operation mode requires special support for in inetd(8).  

    Access control

    To prevent malicious accesses, implements a simple address-based access control. With /etc/faithd.conf (or configfile specified by -f ) will avoid relaying unwanted traffic. The faithd.conf contains directives with the following format:

    The directives are evaluated in sequence, and the first matching entry will be effective. If there is no match (if we reach the end of the ruleset) the traffic will be denied.

    With inetd mode, traffic may be filtered by using access control functionality in inetd(8).  

    EXIT STATUS

    The utility exits with EXIT_SUCCESS (0) on success, and EXIT_FAILURE (1) on error.  

    EXAMPLES

    Before invoking , faith(4) interface has to be configured properly.
    # sysctl net.inet6.ip6.accept_rtadv=0
    # sysctl net.inet6.ip6.forwarding=1
    # sysctl net.inet6.ip6.keepfaith=1
    # ifconfig faith0 up
    # route add -inet6 3ffe:501:4819:ffff:: -prefixlen 96 ::1
    # route change -inet6 3ffe:501:4819:ffff:: -prefixlen 96 -ifp faith0
    
     

    Daemon mode samples

    To translate telnet service, and provide no local telnet service, invoke as follows:
    # faithd telnet
    

    If you would like to provide local telnet service via telnetd(8) on /usr/libexec/telnetd use the following command line:

    # faithd telnet /usr/libexec/telnetd telnetd
    

    If you would like to pass extra arguments to the local daemon:

    # faithd ftp /usr/libexec/ftpd ftpd -l
    

    Here are some other examples. You may need -p if the service checks the source port range.

    # faithd ssh
    # faithd telnet /usr/libexec/telnetd telnetd
    
     

    inetd mode samples

    Add the following lines into inetd.conf5. Syntax may vary depending upon your operating system.
    telnet  stream  tcp6/faith  nowait  root  faithd  telnetd
    ftp     stream  tcp6/faith  nowait  root  faithd  ftpd -l
    ssh     stream  tcp6/faith  nowait  root  faithd  /usr/sbin/sshd -i
    

    inetd(8) will open listening sockets with enabling kernel TCP relay support. Whenever connection comes in, will be invoked by inetd(8). If it the connection endpoint is in the reserved IPv6 address prefix. The utility will relay the connection. Otherwise, will invoke service-specific daemon like telnetd(8).  

    Access control samples

    The following illustrates a simple faithd.conf setting.
    # permit anyone from 3ffe:501:ffff::/48 to use the translator,
    # to connect to the following IPv4 destinations:
    # - any location except 10.0.0.0/8 and 127.0.0.0/8.
    # Permit no other connections.
    #
    3ffe:501:ffff::/48 deny 10.0.0.0/8
    3ffe:501:ffff::/48 deny 127.0.0.0/8
    3ffe:501:ffff::/48 permit 0.0.0.0/0

    HISTORY

    The utility first appeared in WIDE Hydrangea IPv6 protocol stack kit.

    IPv6 and IPsec support based on the KAME Project (http://www.kame.net/) stack was initially integrated into Fx 4.0  

    SECURITY CONSIDERATIONS

    It is very insecure to use IP-address based authentication, for connections relayed by , and any other TCP relaying services.

    Administrators are advised to limit accesses to using faithd.conf or by using IPv6 packet filters. It is to protect service from malicious parties and avoid theft of service/bandwidth. IPv6 destination address can be limited by carefully configuring routing entries that points to faith(4), using route(8). IPv6 source address needs to be filtered by using packet filters. Documents listed in Sx SEE ALSO have more discussions on this topic.
