WAN IP Alias

MichelJansen

I have added an IP alias on the WAN.

I have created an non http rule.

- Alias IP not working

- 'Main' IP on WAN works OK.

What can this be?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Michel

    Could explain better your problem ?

    What does not work!?
    - The IP alias address is not visible on Hosted Server option!?
    - The Business Application Rule is added, but does not work!?

    Could you supply more details about your rule!?

    I have the same problem here.
    A 'DNAT' rule using the primary WAN IP correctly sends traffic to the protected internal server, while a using a WAN Alias IP won't.

    Someone in the forum suggested this is a problem with http based policy, but it seems to me it's a general problem.

    see: community.sophos.com/.../10931

    Hope I'm wrong.

    Edit (23 Jan  2016):

    The support found that the firewall arp table didn't include data about alias IPs.

    from the console they  issued the command:

     > arping -s IP_ALIAS -c 5 -I PortE1 IP_GATEWAY

    and it started to work (unti next reboot, they are investigating)

    Hi Michel,

    i have the same problem with the ip alias adresses of the wan interface.

    My business application rule works with the primary ip but not with the ip aliases.

    Did you find a solution

    best regards
