Shorewall+Docker: Two Great Tastes That Taste Great Together

Docker has changed their iptables implementation so that the rules captured and replaced are no longer complete.

As a suggestion the revisions posted below should correct the issue and be more tolerant of future changes

/etc/shorewall/init and /etc/shorewall/stop should become

if iptables -t nat -L DOCKER >/dev/null 2>&1; then
    echo '*nat' > /etc/shorewall/docker_rules
    iptables -t nat -S | grep -i docker >> /etc/shorewall/docker_rules
    echo 'COMMIT' >> /etc/shorewall/docker_rules

    echo '*filter' >> /etc/shorewall/docker_rules
    iptables -t filter -S | grep -i docker >> /etc/shorewall/docker_rules
    echo 'COMMIT' >> /etc/shorewall/docker_rules
fi

and /etc/shorewall/start should be

if [ -f /etc/shorewall/docker_rules ]; then
    iptables-restore -n < /etc/shorewall/docker_rules

    rm -f /etc/shorewall/docker_rules
fi
