When using NAT to redirection services, country blocking blocks traffic going to the final destination, even if exceptions are turned on for all countries

Hello there,

I have all incoming traffic from http,https,dns and imap services redirectioned via NAT to our linux server.

We have country block truned on for almost every country, but using country block exceptions for these services.

If i open up the firewall log we get this:

16:50:33 NAT rule #3 TCP  
69.191.211.202 : 35046
62.48.251.26 : 80
 
[SYN] len=60 ttl=54 tos=0x00 srcmac=40:00:00:00:00:02 dstmac=00:1a:8c:4b:28:e9
16:50:33 Country blocked TCP  
69.191.211.202 : 35046
192.168.1.97 : 80
 
[SYN] len=60 ttl=53 tos=0x00 srcmac=40:00:00:00:00:02 dstmac=00:1a:8c:4b:28:e9

Why does the firewall blocks the package from source to the linux server?

source=69.191.211.202

UTM9=62.48.251.26

linux=192.168.1.97

Thanks

  • Hi, Pedro, and welcome to the UTM Community!

    Alone among the logs, the Firewall Live Log presents abbreviated information in a format easier to read quickly. Usually, you can't troubleshoot without looking at the corresponding line from the full Firewall log file. Please post the lines corresponding to those above.

    Also, click on 'Use rich formatting' and insert a picture of your Exception that should have applied here.

    Cheers - Bob
  • What version of UTM are you running? Is it the latest (9.353)? There have been several versions where County Blocking exceptions have been non-functional due to a bug.
  • Note that i cut the image, so not all countries are displayed. But i garantee all of them are select except portugal.

    Example of firewall log for problem:

    2016:02:10-00:00:14 utmmundi ulogd[1278]: id="2000" severity="info" sys="SecureNet" sub="packetfilter" name="Packet logged" action="log" fwrule="62003" initf="eth1.20" srcmac="40:00:00:00:00:02" dstmac="00:1a:8c:4b:28:e9" srcip="66.249.64.186" dstip="62.48.251.26" proto="6" length="60" tos="0x00" prec="0x00" ttl="46" srcport="40612" dstport="80" tcpflags="SYN"
    2016:02:10-00:00:14 utmmundi ulogd[1278]: id="2021" severity="info" sys="SecureNet" sub="packetfilter" name="Packet dropped (GEOIP)" action="drop" fwrule="60019" initf="eth1.20" outitf="eth0" srcmac="40:00:00:00:00:02" dstmac="00:1a:8c:4b:28:e9" srcip="66.249.64.186" dstip="192.168.1.97" proto="6" length="60" tos="0x00" prec="0x00" ttl="45" srcport="40612" dstport="80" tcpflags="SYN"

    Thanks
