How to make a Internal IP available for people outside our network?

Hi there Guys, 

 

Im new in the Windows world, which means im new to Sophos Firewall aswell. We have a windows 2012 server and that server can be accessed with a hostname outside our network. I want to add another ip on our firewall that can be access outside our network.

 

What i have done so far:

1) On our server given the IP a hostname= 192.168.1.2 is now internally accessible through accfin.fvln.co.za:8080

2) On our XG125  opened ports 80,443,8080.

3) Set Source Zone to be WAN

4) Destination to be our Port 2 (which is our broadband internet port)

5) Forwarded to the IP above which is 192.168.1.2

 

What I need to accomplish is we have a java server running where clients outside our network needs to access this server via die hostname we assigned to the server

 

But i still cant access this outside our network, what else needs to be done? 

 

With linux its easy using a Bind Server and adding a zone at your ISP, but im really having a hard time with this one.

  • Hi, 

    i assume, Port2 is your WAN Port? 

    So something is in front of the XG? 

    Because at the correct point, you forward everything coming von SA to 10.0.0.101 to your Linux server. 

    Maybe Port2 is not your WAN port, then you have to select in the dropdown not Port2, instead the IP of your WAN IP Interface. Basically the IP behind accfin.fvln.co.za.
