FTP66 ALG Support for IPv6 Firewalls

The FTP66 ALG Support for IPv6 Firewalls feature allows FTP to work with IPv6 firewalls. This module describes how to configure a firewall, Network Address Translation (NAT), and Stateful NAT64 to work with the FTP66 application-level gateway (ALG).

Restrictions for FTP66 ALG Support for IPv6 Firewalls

The FTP66 ALG does not support the following:

  • Box-to-box high availability.

  • Per-subscriber firewalls.

  • Stateless Network Address Translation 64 (NAT64).

  • Virtual routing and forwarding (VRF) when stateful NAT64 is configured.

  • Virtual TCP (vTCP) or the breaking up of packets into smaller packets after translation.

Information About FTP66 ALG Support for IPv6 Firewalls

Application-Level Gateways

An application-level gateway (ALG), also known as an application-layer gateway, is an application that translates the IP address information inside the payload of an application packet. An ALG is used to interpret the application-layer protocol and perform firewall and Network Address Translation (NAT) actions. These actions can be one or more of the following depending on your configuration of the firewall and NAT:

  • Allow client applications to use dynamic TCP or UDP ports to communicate with the server application.

  • Recognize application-specific commands and offer granular security control over them.

  • Synchronize multiple streams or sessions of data between two hosts that are exchanging data.

  • Translate the network-layer address information that is available in the application payload.

The firewall opens a pinhole, and NAT performs translation service on any TCP or UDP traffic that does not carry the source and destination IP addresses in the application-layer data stream. Specific protocols or applications that embed IP address information require the support of an ALG.

FTP66 ALG Support Overview

Firewalls support the inspection of IPv6 packets and stateful Network Address Translation 64 (NAT64). For FTP to work over IPv6 packet inspection, the application-layer gateway (ALG) (also called the application-level gateway [ALG]), FTP66, is required. The FTP66 ALG is also called all-in-one FTP ALG and one FTP ALG.

The FTP66 ALG supports the following:

  • Firewall IPv4 packet inspection

  • Firewall IPv6 packet inspection

  • NAT configuration

  • NAT64 configuration (along with FTP64 support)

  • NAT and firewall configuration

  • NAT64 and firewall configuration

The FTP66 ALG has the following security vulnerabilities:

  • Packet segmentation attack—The FTP ALG state machine can detect segmented packets, and the state machine processing is stopped until a complete packet is received.

  • Bounce attack—The FTP ALG does not create doors (for NAT) or pinholes (for firewalls) with a data port number less than 1024. The prevention of a bounce attack is activated only when the firewall is enabled.

FTP Commands Supported by FTP66 ALG

The FTP66 application-level gateway (ALG) is based on RFC 959. This section describes the main RFC 959 and RFC 2428 FTP commands and responses that the FTP66 ALG processes.

PORT Command

The PORT command is used in active FTP mode. The PORT command specifies the address and the port number to which a server should connect. When you use this command, the argument is a concatenation of a 32-bit Internet host address and a 16-bit TCP port address. The address information is broken into 8-bit fields, and the value of each field is transmitted as a decimal number (in character string representation). The fields are separated by commas.

The following is a sample PORT command, where h1 is the highest order 8-bit of the Internet host address: 
PORT h1,h2,h3,h4,p1,p2

PASV Command

The PASV command requests a server to listen on a data port that is not the default data port of the server and to wait for a connection, rather than initiate another connection, when a TRANSFER command is received. The response to the PASV command includes the host and port address the server is listening on.

Extended FTP Commands

Extended FTP commands provide a method by which FTP can communicate the data connection endpoint information for network protocols other than IPv4. Extended FTP commands are specified in RFC 2428. In RFC 2428, the extended FTP commands EPRT and EPSV, replace the FTP commands PORT and PASV, respectively.

EPRT Command

The EPRT command allows you to specify an extended address for data connection. The extended address must consist of a network protocol, network address, and transport address. The format of an EPRT command is as follows: 

EPRT<space><d><net-prt><d><net-addr><d><tcp-port><d>

  • The <net-prt> argument must be an address family number and must be defined as described in the table below.

    Table 1. The <net-prt> Argument Definitions

    Address Family Number

    Protocol

    1

    IPv4 (Pos81a)

    2

    IPv6 (DH96)

  • The <net-addr> argument is a protocol-specific string representation of the network address. For the two address family numbers specified in the table above (address family numbers 1 and 2), the addresses must be in the format listed in the table below.

    Address Family Number

    Address Format

    Example

    1

    Dotted decimal

    10.135.1.2

    2

    IPv6 string representations defined in DH96

    2001:DB8:1::1

  • The <tcp-port> argument must be a string representation of the number of the TCP port on which the host is listening for data connection.

  • The following command shows how to specify the server to use an IPv4 address to open a data connection to host 10.235.1.2 on TCP port 6275: 
    EPRT |1|10.235.1.2|6275|
  • The following command shows how to specify the server to use an IPv6 network protocol and a network address to open a TCP data connection on port 5282: 
    EPRT |2|2001:DB8:2::2:417A|5282|

  • The <d> argument is the delimiter character and it must be in ASCII format, in the range from 33 to 126.

EPSV Command

The EPSV command requests that a server listen on a data port and wait for a connection. The response to this command includes only the TCP port number of the listening connection. The response code for entering passive mode by using an extended address must be 229.

The text returned in response to an EPSV command must be in the following format: 
(<d><d><d><tcp-port><d>)

  • The portion of the string enclosed in parentheses must be the exact string needed by the EPRT command to open the data connection.

    The first two fields in parentheses must be blank. The third field must be a string representation of the TCP port number on which the server is listening for a data connection. The network protocol used by the data connection is the same network protocol used by the control connection. The network address used to establish the data connection is the same network address used for the control connection.

  • The following is a sample response string: 
    Entering Extended Passive Mode (|||6446|)

The following FTP responses and commands are also processed by the FTP66 ALG. The results of processing these commands are used to drive the transition in the state machine.

  • 230 response

  • AUTH

  • USER

  • PASS
