Hello,
I'm stuck with a problem regarding two most identical iptables rules, except
the IP and UDP Port.
What I'm trying to do:
My linux box is receiving Packets on two different UDP Ports at eth0
(192.168.1.0/24) and I'm trying to forward those packets to different hosts
in the network connected to eth1 (192.168.245.0/24).
The Problem:
Only the first added iptables FORWARD rule is working.
root@thebox:~# iptables -I FORWARD -i eth0 -p udp --dport 20044 -j ACCEPT
If I add the second rule, it gets completely ignored.
root@thebox:~# iptables -I FORWARD -i eth0 -p udp --dport 20048 -j ACCEPT
And iptables confirms this in the packet statistics.
root@thebox:~# iptables -L -v -n
Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT 9523 packets, 11M bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source
destination
Chain FORWARD (policy DROP 0 packets, 0 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source
destination
0 0 ACCEPT udp -- eth0 * 0.0.0.0/0
0.0.0.0/0 udp dpt:20048
27858 32M ACCEPT udp -- eth0 * 0.0.0.0/0
0.0.0.0/0 udp dpt:20044
Chain OUTPUT (policy ACCEPT 219 packets, 80793 bytes)
pkts bytes target prot opt in out source
destination
The interesting fakt is, that if I delete the rules and add them in reverse
order, the other rule is working.
Just to go for sure, here is a snipped of the tcpdump output where you can
see the packets arriving at the box on eth0.
root@thebox:~# tcpdump -n -i eth0 udp
[ 1601.022974] device eth0 entered promiscuous mode
tcpdump: verbose output suppressed, use -v or -vv for full protocol decode
listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes

Maybe the sourceport of the packets is reason for this strange behaviour.
Versioninformations:
iptables v1.4.14
kernel 3.4.4
Does anybody an idea to get my problem solved, or even the reason for?
I really appreciate any help you can provide to solve the problem.
