Dear All,
I have several DNAT entries for each of my public IPs that point to different machines (i.e. I have http and SMTP/POP3 on the same external IP but 2 different internal IPs). The problem I have is that one of the machines is a bit unstable and I need to monitor it remotly. I need to be able to ping one of the machines using the external address but have not been able to workout how to do it.
I thought I had it using ping_request and ping_reply and to start with I had both and it worked. I was then not sure if I needed both so I took ping_request out and it stopped working, however, when I put it back in it still did not work.
If I DNAT no chage to the internal address I can ping it no problem, but I dont have enough external IPs for that.
Any body know what I should be doing?
Thanks
