Re: 2 providers & DNAT: incoming packets not forwarded

Linux Advanced Routing and Traffic Control

Hi,

It is of course set to 1.

I already have DNATing on eth1 and it works very well.
I suppose my problem come from my routing table but I don't understand why no route is found to 172.16.1.4 coming from ppp0 with the current configuration.


Regards,

Raph

Hi!
May be you need to set /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward sysctl value to 1?

Hi,

I have a problem with incoming connections on my Linux gateway.
I have 2 providers, cable modem on eth1 and dsl on eth2 <-> ppp0 (pppoe). The lan network is connected to eth0. At the moment, I have a very simple configuration where the default route is via eth1 (cable modem). I set up DNAT on ppp0 to forward incoming traffic for certain ports to a computer behind the gateway/firewall:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ppp0 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 2000 -j DNAT --to-destination 172.16.1.4
Packets get lost and never reach the FORWARD chain (I logged all packets to be sure)


Here are my routes:

# ip route ls
215.136.169.1 dev ppp0  proto kernel  scope link  src 215.136.169.15
135.165.199.128/25 dev eth1  proto kernel  scope link  src 135.165.199.139
172.16.0.0/16 dev eth0  proto kernel  scope link  src 172.16.1.1
default via 135.165.199.129 dev eth1

So, I understand traffic by default goes via eth1, but why don't incoming packets redirected (DNATed) to an intranet IP address go out via eth0?
If I change my default route in table main to go via ppp0, then, it works. And DNATing on eth1 works with the current configuration.


I don't have any other routing tables nor complex routing rules:
# ip rule ls
0:      from all lookup local
32766:  from all lookup main
32767:  from all lookup default

I am running kernel 2.4.23 with Julian's patches.

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
