Documentation

xdrum/knockd — version 0.0.4 Mar 2nd 2015

puppet-knockd

This module manages knockd.

Class: knockd

A class for managing knockd server options

Parameters

[package_name]
package name.

[service_name]
service name (initscript name).

[usesyslog]
log action messages through syslog().

[logfile]
log actions directly to a file, (defaults to: /var/log/knockd.log).

[pidfile]
pidfile to use when in daemon mode, (defaults to: /var/run/knockd.pid).

[interface]: network interface to listen on (mandatory).

Examples

 class { "knockd":
   interface => 'eth0',
 }

Define: knockd::sequence

A defined type for managing knockd sequences

Parameters

[sequence]
port sequence used in single knock mode.

[open_sequence]
port sequence used in the open knock (two knock mode).

[close_sequence]
port sequence used in the close knock (two knock mode).

[one_time_sequences]
file containing the one time sequences to be used. (instead of using a fixed sequence).

[seq_timeout]
port sequence timeout.

[tcpflags]
only pay attention to packets that have this flag set.

[start_command]
command executed when a client makes a correct port knock (both modes).

[stop_command]
command executed when cmd_timeout seconds are passed or when a close sequence was received (both modes).

[cmd_timeout]
time to wait between start and stop command (only required in two knock mode).

Examples

An Open/Close example that uses a single knock to control access to port 22(ssh):

 class { "knockd":
   interface => 'eth3',
 }
 knockd::sequence {
   "SSH":
     sequence      => '2222:udp,3333:tcp,4444:udp',
     seq_timeout   => '15',
     tcpflags      => 'syn,ack',
     start_command => '/usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s %IP% -p tcp --syn --dport 22 -j ACCEPT',
     cmd_timeout   => '10',
     stop_command  => '/usr/sbin/iptables -D INPUT -s %IP% -p tcp --syn --dport 22 -j ACCEPT',
 }

An example using two knocks: the first allow access to port 22(ssh), the second will close the port:

 class { "knockd":
   interface => 'eth0',
 }
 knockd::sequence {
   "SSH":
     open_sequence      => '7000,8000,9000',
     close_sequence     => '9000,8000,7000',
     seq_timeout        => '10',
     tcpflags           => 'syn',
     start_command      => '/usr/sbin/iptables -A INPUT -s %IP% -p tcp --syn --dport 22 -j ACCEPT',
     stop_command       => '/usr/sbin/iptables -D INPUT -s %IP% -p tcp --syn --dport 22 -j ACCEPT',
  }
