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
This sounds like more of an issue with the ftp client. Is the client assigned the wan IP or a NAT one?
It's not - it's a NETGEAR configuration íssue - I have the installation running in working order behind a Zyxel firewall.
The problem is that the FTP-.transfer arrives at the receiving server with the WAN-IP of the NETGEAR.
In the current setup works fine - the Zyxel passes the WAN-IP that corresponds to its NET'ed LAN device, and such the receiving server sees the WAN-IP of the transmitting LAN device and not the firewall.
This is obvious if you look at the log on the FTP-server in the first post in the thread.
