WR31 NAT1:1 between Eth 0 and Eth 1

Hi

I need some guidance as to how to set up a DIGI Transport WR31 for the following scenario.

  • DIGI connected via IPsec VPN on PPP1 (this is ok and working fine)
  • Eth 0 is Set as the LAN for the VPN IP 10.30.10.0/24 (I can see this interface via VPN)
  • Eth 1 is Set for a different Subnet 192.168.1.0/24

I would like to be able to NAT between the interfaces so 10.30.10.10 -> 192.168.1.10, so going to address 10.30.10.10 from the VPN will direct me to 192.168.1.10.

Not 100% sure how to do this and if it’s actually possible using the firewall? Or would you use static routeing in some way?

Any help/guidance would be very appreciated.

cheers

you could use a firewall rule on the eth 1 interface so it changes the source address to the 10.30.10.10 address

this could cause problems on the traffic coming in on the VPN as if you setup a firewall to change the inbount traffic from 10.30.10.10 it would transfer all traffic so if you have a device on eth 0 it would never get packets

pass in break end on eth 1 from 192.168.1.0/24 to any -> 10.30.10.0/24

pass in break end oneroute X from any to 10.30.10.0/24 -> to 192.168.1.0/24

the X relates to the eroute it is connected to proberbly 0

you need to enable firewall on the eth 1 and eroute and you would need a

pass break end inspect-state

this should cover all the other traffic

you also might need further setting releated to PPP traffic

I ended up doing it a slightly different way.

Eth 0 became my LAN @ 192.168.1.0/24, eth 1 not used

I set the ipsec 0 Tunnel Negotiation to use 10.30.10.0/24

Then used Jame’s Firewall rules for eth 0 and enroute 0

Firewall enabled for Eth 0 and PPP 1

works a treat.
