Simple DNAT rule created with Server Access Assistant does not work

Hi all,

I created a DNAT rule with Server Access Assistant under SFOS 18.0.5 but it does not work at all. Here are the screenshots of the rules:

NAT rule:

Firewall rule:

Service definition:

Here is the TCPDUMP. Out interface Port2_ppp for an internal destination IP looks surprising to me...  

Any help would be very appreciated as I am out of ideas.

Best regards

Carsten

  • Hi,

    why do you need an incoming rule to your home assist device, does it not connect through an external server that your application talks to?

  • Hi,

    HomeAssistant is only an example as it is a webserver and I can simply check with browser if it works.

    Mainly I need port forwarding for a WireGuard VPN I would like to build up. I need to use WireGuard, as Sophos SSL VPN does not work. I can connect but the internal IPs are not reachable from VPN. I double checked all settings again and again according to the official How-Tos, but no success. Then I switched to WireGuard but now a simple port forwarding does not work, even though all the settings are exactly like in the docs.

    Best regards

  • Hi,

    thank you for the details. Have you created a firewall rule allowing the traffic from the VPN IP range to your LAN range?

  • Yes, I did. It was not used. Something is wrong with my box.

    As you can see in the pcap above the natted packet is send to the WAN interface but not into LAN. I think that is the root cause. But how can I change that?

  • That rule would need to be above the one that is directing the traffic to the WAN.
