Hello, So I know, the mon services can only bind to just one ip. But I have to make it accessible to two networks because internal and external servers have to mount the cephfs. The internal ip is 10.99.10.1 and the external is some public-ip. I tried nat'ing it with this: "firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-forward-port=port=6789:proto=tcp:toport=6789:toaddr=10.99.10.1 -permanent" So the nat is working, because I get a "ceph v027" (alongside with some gibberish) when I do a telnet "telnet *public-ip* 6789" But when I try to mount it, I get just a timeout: mount -vvvv -t ceph *public-ip*:6789:/testing /mnt -o name=test,secretfile=/root/ceph.client. test.key mount error 110 = Connection timed out The tcpdump also recognizes a "Ceph Connect" packet, coming from the mon. How can I get around this problem? Is there something I have missed? Specs: Latest Octopus 15.2.4 Centos 8 8 Nodes No health warnings.
