How to configure FVS318N to transmit NAT'ed LAN IP in FTP tranfers in stead of Firewalls WAN-IP.
I'm having this problem. Remote site is connected to the internet in a fixet, multiple IP-adress MPLS setup. The LAN side is presently protected by a Zyxel Zywall, but for a variety of reasons I...

Hi Samir
Apologies for my delayed response.
I'll try to test the setup you are suggesting the next time I'm at the location, but since it's in east Greenland there are no planned trips - I only go there when absolutely necessary.
I will need to close my post here for now, and I'd like to thank all of you for your help.
When I initially opened the case I thought I had just missed to set a checkmark somewhere, and that I could sort of just "copy-paste" the rules etc. from the Zyxel to the netgear.
Cheers

Hi DaneA
Thanks for your reply :smileyhappy:
Yes, I did submit my problem to Netgear support, however, I have been receiving more questions than answers :smileyfrustrated:
Ahhh, It may be the case, that I need to create a specific outbound rule in addition to the Any-Any rule that already exists.
Like:
Index Service Filter LAN users WAN Users Qos Bandwth
1 or 2? Any ALLOW 192.168.1.102 "FTP-server IP" - -
Is there a hierachy in the position of those rules?
If so, must the specific outbound rule be no 1 or no 2?
Just to be nit-picky: Its a FTP-client pushing files from 192.168.1.102/111.111.111.102 to the receiving FTP-server on "FTP-server IP"
Thanks again :smileyhappy:

Yes, hierarchy should be observed on which rule should be first be checked. You may specify the rule as no. 1.

Well, this is not easy to solve, primarily because the FVS318 is at a very remote place on a very, very slow connection and testing impairs production.
Since teh current Zyxel is still functioning I will put the efforts to configure the FVS318 on hold until action is needed.
Thanks a lot for your contribution.
