Having enabled the logdrop debug rules, we want to identify what a specific IP camera is trying to access whilst BLOCKED

e.g. In my case IP camera 10.88.8.125
Code:
./IPCamsBlock.sh status

(IPCamsBlock.sh): 24779 v1.09 I/P Cameras Firewall blocking.... status

<snip>
6      162  9720 logdrop    all  --  br0    !tun2+  10.88.8.120          0.0.0.0/0          
7        0     0 logdrop    all  --  br0    !tun2+  10.88.8.121          0.0.0.0/0          
8        0     0 logdrop    all  --  br0    !tun2+  10.88.8.122          0.0.0.0/0          
9      399 23940 logdrop    all  --  br0    !tun2+  10.88.8.123          0.0.0.0/0

so I would expect to see Syslog lines such as:
e.g.
Code:
grep 10.88.8.125 /tmp/syslog.log   | sed 's/SEQ=.*$//;s/LEN=.*DF//'

What is in your logdrop chain
Code:
iptables --line -t filter -nvL logdrop
 
I'm just not getting that output in my Syslog, no idea why??

Code:
techhead@NAS:/tmp/home/root# iptables --line -t filter -nvL logdrop
Chain logdrop (9 references)
num   pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination

Rundown of how I have things setup

4 Hikvision IP Cameras (192.168.254.x) connected directly to Hikvision PoE NVR's switch side 192.168.254.1 Network side (192.168.1.15) connected to managed network switch (192.168.1.3) , which is connected to my ASUS Router (192.168.1.1)

Not sure if this complicates things? or even if it matters that the cameras are connected to my NVR?

Finally some results for grep 192.168.1.15 /tmp/syslog.log | sed 's/SEQ=.*$//;s/LEN=.*DF//'

I'm just not getting that output in my Syslog, no idea why??

Code:
techhead@NAS:/tmp/home/root# iptables --line -t filter -nvL logdrop
Chain logdrop (9 references)
num   pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination

Although you have now successfully identified how/why the 'logdrop' chain was deliberately sabotaged, I have nevertheless released v1.09 IPCamsBlock.sh to assist novice users by reporting the issue and optionally fix the deliberate crippling of the intrinsic iptables '-t filter -j logdrop' target.

Also, the updated script now offers the ability to initiate the Syslog scan for the BLOCKED packets attempts from either ALL IP cameras or an individual device
e.g.
Code:
./IPCamsBlock.sh   logscan   192.168.254.2

Possibly, but at least my IPCamsBlock.sh script may be able to identify/highlight if there is any explicit blocking of the emails e.g. wrong SMTP server address/Port. o_O

Hi, @Martineau I have 1.09 of your script installed and running however I cant get the mail smtp for gmail to work. It is being blocked.

I've read through this thread but honestly I'm not sure what I'm actually reading in the logs as to why it's dropping the mail server request.

Also it seems like after running init mail=smtp.gmail.com:587 and then restarting the script the rule dissapears. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong and would appreciate any help.

Thanks.

Can you post the output of these commands
Code:
./IPCamsBlock.sh   status

iptables   --line   -t filter   -nvL   MyIPCAMs

Thanks, so the smtp rules are apparently being correctly created so they don't 'disappear' from the rule display when explicitly using the 'status' directive.

So the question remains, if there have been attempts to use the Gmail TCP/UDP smtp servers then since the rules are global, none appear to have been ACCEPTED by the rules, but if device 192.168.0.240 did attempt to access the Gmail servers, then without additional logging/diagnostics you can't tell.

I suggest you add the 'logdrop' directive for a while, to see if any of the 4929 hits from the chatty 192.168.0.240 device will repeat and possibly track (blocked) Gmail requests.

I just remembered I changed my firewall-start script to be "init mail=smtp.gmail.com:587" during testing. I removed that and reverted back to just "./IPCamsBlock.sh init" and now the status doesnt show the gmail ie. "disappeared"

EDIT:

Once I enable logdrop how can I test the findings in the Syslog or figure out why its dropping the gmail request

Why not just configure the camera using Parental Control, and not setting any allowed Internet access period?

Being able to access the camera feed via VPN when I'm not at home and also being able to allow email alerts to be sent whilst blocking anything else are the primary reasons for using this script.

I currently have one camera setup in parental controls and have no issues view over VPN.
BUT, the camera had to be taken off my NVR as parental controls could not pick it up by IP address. Once on my regular network, no issue. email alerts work as intended with just one line added to firewall-start.
 
I just remembered I changed my firewall-start script to be "init mail=smtp.gmail.com:587" during testing. I removed that and reverted back to just "./IPCamsBlock.sh init" and now the status doesnt show the gmail ie. "disappeared"

As per the script's help...use the 'logscan' directive
e.g. to find any entries related to device 192.168.0.240
Code:
./IPCamsBlock     logscan   192.168.0.240
or use grep to scan Syslog manually.

Ok I guess I should tackle the problem of the smtp rule not applying and staying applied.

I ran the command
Code:
./IPCamsBlock.sh init mail=smtp.gmail.com:587
followed straight after by
Code:
./IPCamsBlock.sh status
and as you can see below the smtp rules disapear. Am I missing a step or doing something wrong?

Am I supposed to change the firewall-start code?

I ran the command
Code:
./IPCamsBlock.sh init mail=smtp.gmail.com:587
followed straight after by
Code:
./IPCamsBlock.sh status
and as you can see below the smtp rules disappear

I should tackle the problem of the smtp rule not applying and staying applied.

Am I doing something wrong?

YES, as clearly you did not actually physically perform the two commands that you say you used :rolleyes:

There is a difference between
Code:
./IPCamsBlock.sh    status
and
Code:
./IPCamsBlock.sh    init   status

The 'init' directive wipes ALL existing rules (i.e. deletes the MyIPCAMs chain) , then recreates the chain using the directives you specifiy, so is mandatory when the script is first called after a reboot i.e. from firewall-start/nat-start.

The script will always display the rules it creates when the 'init' keyword is used so the 'status' directive is always implied.

Have you now understood what you are doing wrong?[/QUOTE]
