Unable to turn on Masquerading in AMI

coewar
That also does not work in AMI version because there is no IP to select from the dropdown list.

This and a few other issues, are around the difference between adding ethernet alias devices versus alternate IP's.

In linux, if I add a virtual ethernet NIC (like eth0:1) and assign an IP to it, I have the flexibility to use that NIC in routing and VPN configurations.

But since using the 'ip addr' commang (as opposed to 'ifconfig') is recommended and used, only merely alternate IP's can be created. And thus, I'm only limited to the 1 "physical" ethernet NIC. And that limits several other pieces of functionality in the rest of the router's configuration.

    If I can't enable Masquerading, then an EC2 Astaro device can't be used to filter internet traffic. 

    Please don't comment on why one would need to do this. [:)] This is just pointing out a missing piece of functionality on the AMI of Astaro that seems to be missing for no reason.
