Hello all,

I have 2 box for cache, bandwidth manager, firewall, NAT .

one box is cache server(squid) only. and another box is bandwidth manager,
firewall, NAT server.

I haven't any rule on my squid box. the default gateway of my users is my
firewall box. my firewall box has 2 ethernet(user side and internet side).

ip of firewall box is :

iptables_box_ILAN=172.16.5.5 (user side)(eth0)

iptables_box_WLAN=212.213.38.100 (internet side)(eth1)

ip of cache box is :

squid_box=172.16.5.6

the default gateway of cache box is firewall box

I use of this rule for NAT :

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 172.16.5.0/24 -o eth1 -j SNAT --to
212.213.38.100

now I want redirect the request on port 80 to cache box :

local_network=172.16.5.0/24

iptables_box_ILAN=172.16.5.5

iptables_box_WLAN=212.213.38.100

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -s ! $squid_box -p tcp --dport 80 -j
DNAT --to $squid_box:3128


On reflection, the NAT source and destination syntax is not quite right (you do not use --to) instead:

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i eth0 -s ! $squid_box -p tcp --dport 80 -j
DNAT --to-destination $squid_box:3128


iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s $local_network -d $squid_box -o eth0 -j
SNAT --to $iptables_box_ILAN


iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s $local_network -d $squid_box -o eth0 -j SNAT --to-source $iptables_box_ILAN

A SNAT rule like this allows clients on the local net to address a server
on the local net by the external ip address. The packets appear to come
from the firewall, therefore the server replies there. I do not see why
this is needed for a proxy. I think the proxy does need SNAT for itself
to reach the internet. Something like this, which you may already have:

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s $squid_box -o eth1
-j SNAT --to-source $iptables_box_WLAN


iptables -A FORWARD -s $local_network -d $squid_box -i eth0 -o eth0 -p tcp
--dport 3128 -j ACCEPT

when I don't use of NAT it is correct. and when I set all on one ethernet it
is correct.

but when I have two ethernet and I NAT on firewall box it's not work correct.
