Easy question here: I have a test network that looks like this
(apologies for my lack of ascii skills):
[hostc]---------------[Firewall]192.168.42.1 (EXTIF: eth0) /10.0.0.1
(INTIF: eth1)
192.168.42.10 (wan) |(lan)
|
+-------------[hosta] 10.0.0.10 (port 4242)
|
+-------------[hostb] 10.0.0.20 (port 2424)
All of those machines are vms I created using virsh/libvirt. In fact,
the "wan" is a network that exists only inside virsh. "lan" is a
vlan
my desktop also belongs to; I did that so I could always connect even
when I screwed the firewall up. So, using iptables I created a little
set of rules to forward port 2424 in 192.168.42.1 to 10.0.0.20:2424 :
$IPTABLES -t nat -A PREROUTING --dst 192.168.42.1 -p tcp --dport 2424
-m comment --comment "test" -j DNAT --to-destination 10.0.0.20:2424
cat >> /etc/sysctl.conf << 'EOF'
# Custom Settings for Forwarding and OpenSwan
net.ipv4.ip_forward=1
net.ipv4.conf.all.accept_redirects = 0
net.ipv4.conf.default.accept_redirects = 0
net.ipv4.conf.all.send_redirects = 0
net.ipv4.conf.default.send_redirects = 0
EOF
sysctl -p
So, in 10.0.0.20 I do "nc -l 2424". But when I go to hostc and then
try to do "nc -v 192.168.41.1 2424", connection does not take place.
Thinking I've done something wrong, I replicated the very same setup
in virtualbox down to the network layout. It works. So, I went to the
firewall vm and replaced the network interface from virtio to e1000.
Still did not work. What am I missing here?
you could try this rule below to replace your " $IPTABLES -A FORWARD
-o $INTIF -i $EXTIF -j ACCEPT"
iptables -I FORWARD -i br0 -o virbr0 -p tcp -m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT
NB,i use the "-I " to insert this rule in front of all other rules,
