Extend testing/deb-install/test.sh per-distro container test loop with 5 new PASS assertions covering the v0.3.0 nftables firewall baseline that ships installed-but-disabled (operator opt-in): 1. fips-firewall.service unit present at /lib/systemd/system/ 2. fips-firewall.service disabled by default (is-enabled = 'disabled') 3. /etc/fips/fips.nft exists AND is registered as a dpkg conffile 4. /etc/fips/fips.d/ drop-in directory present with mode 755 root:root 5. fips.nft includes the drop-in glob /etc/fips/fips.d/*.nft Assertions slot in between the existing fips-dns service-state check and the simulated-boot service-start block. Each runs against every distro in the existing matrix (debian12 / ubuntu24 / ubuntu26). The security claim — services on fips0 are not exposed by default — remains end-to-end-validated separately by the testing/firewall/ suite. This commit specifically pins the static install state so packaging regressions surface in the per-push deb-install gate rather than at operator opt-in time.
FIPS Testing
Integration and simulation test harnesses for FIPS, using Docker containers running the full protocol stack.
Test Harnesses
static/ -- Static Docker Network
Fixed topologies with manual scripts for building, config generation, connectivity tests (ping, iperf), and network impairment (netem). Useful for deterministic debugging and validating specific topology configurations.
| Topology | Nodes | Transport | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| mesh | 5 | UDP | Sparse mesh, 6 links, multi-hop |
| chain | 5 | UDP | Linear chain, max 4-hop paths |
| mesh-public | 5+1 | UDP | Mesh with external public node |
| tcp-chain | 3 | TCP | Linear chain over TCP (port 8443) |
| rekey | 5 | UDP | Rekey integration test topology |
tor/ -- Tor Transport Integration
End-to-end Tor transport testing with Docker containers running real Tor daemons. Requires internet access for Tor bootstrapping.
| Scenario | Description |
|---|---|
| socks5-outbound | Outbound SOCKS5 connections through Tor to clearnet peer |
| directory-mode | Inbound via HiddenServiceDir onion service (co-located) |
nat/ -- NAT Traversal Lab
Real Docker NAT traversal tests for the Nostr/STUN bootstrap path,
using router containers with iptables-based NAT, a local Nostr relay,
and a local STUN responder.
| Scenario | Description |
|---|---|
| cone | Two NATed peers establish a UDP traversal path |
| symmetric | UDP traversal fails under symmetric NAT, TCP fallback wins |
| lan | Peers on the same LAN prefer local addresses over reflexive |
chaos/ -- Stochastic Simulation
Automated network testing with configurable node counts, topology algorithms (random geometric, Erdos-Renyi, chain, explicit), and fault injection (netem mutation, link flaps, traffic generation, node churn). 20 scenarios covering general stress testing, cost-based parent selection, mixed link technologies (fiber/Bluetooth/WiFi), transport-specific validation (UDP, TCP, Ethernet), and ECN/congestion testing. Scenarios are defined in YAML and executed via a Python harness that manages the full lifecycle: topology generation, Docker orchestration, fault scheduling, log collection, and analysis.
