Overview

This module will setup the weakforced Anti-Abuse server, also known as "wforce".

Requirements

  • Puppet 5 or higher
  • Access to wforce binary packages (either through a subscription or custom builds)

Usage

Beginning with wforce

Basic usage requires only a password for the wforce HTTP server:

class { 'wforce':
    password => 'secretpassword'
}

Furthermore, a number of simple options are available:

class { 'wforce':
    # Add networks to the access control list for the HTTP server.
    acls => [ '172.16.99.0/24', '10.100.200.0/24' ],

    # Change settings of the default databases (or add new databases).
    databases => {
      24HourDB => {
        max_size => 750000,
        v4prefix => 24,
      },
      MyDB => {
        window_size: 900
        num_windows: 32
        max_size: 500000
        field_map: 'default_field_map'
        replication: false
      },
    },

    # Replicate changes to db and blacklist to these hosts.
    siblings => [ "10.99.0.1:4001:udp", "10.99.0.2:4001:udp", "10.99.0.3:4001:udp" ],

    # On startup, try to replicate databases from the following host.
    sync_enable   => true,
    sync_host     => '10.99.0.1',
    sync_password => 'secretpassword',
    sync_uptime   => 3600,

    # Whitelist certain IP networks and hosts to avoid accidential blacklisting
    whitelist => [ "10.199.0.0/24", "10.222.0.123/32" ],
}
