Fastgate Toolkit

You can find quick information on this page and detailed information on the Wiki

Obtain SSH access

You can obtain SSH access to the FastGATE using the fastgate-python script as explained here

Make persistent modifications to filesystem

You can make persistent changes to the root filesystem as explained here.

Custom firewall rules

The stock firewall has various issues, like:

• allowing IPv6 connections from internet to LAN ...

This method allow to replace stock iptables configuration with a new one. A complete IPv6 firewall configuration is provided.

Custom rules are saved in iptables_rules, the example takes care of clearing existing rules

The files can be sent to the Fastgate by starting a python3 -m http.server inside this repository folder, to use wget on the Fastgate

# mount /tmp/ubifs
cd /tmp
wget http://your-pc-ip:8088/firewall.sh
cd /tmp/ubifs
mv usr/sbin/firewall.sh usr/sbin/firewall //be careful not to overwrite original firewall.sh
mv /tmp/firewall.sh usr/sbin/firewall.sh
chmod 775 usr/sbin/firewall.sh

• copy iptables_rules in /etc in a similar manner

Install a chroot on a USB drive

A mainstream distro chroot allows using a package manager to easily get commonly used software (like Python and compilers) running on the gateway. See this wiki page for instructions on how to get a Debian chroot.

Work is being done to get LXC containers running. See wiki page.
