Multiple static IP's on FVS-318N
I have multiple static IP's from my internet provider. At the moment, I have various publicly available servers simply plugged into a five port hub off the cable modem and one of the static IP's set...
You need another nat routers.
This has to be the worst support forum I've ever seen. Classical routing is not an option - the user is trying to use the router like it was designed to work and it isn't working (NAT with inbound rule for a static IP from his assigned block of multiple static IPs). The static IP assign to the WAN itself routes inbound properly. It is only when assign one of the other static IPs from the block where it doesn't route inbound. I have a 318Gv2 so it seems like a bug in the firmware.
What you need to do, is one outbound rule for that device, an ANY rule, and it uses a secondary address from that section of the manual.
That means any traffic it sends out, goes out that address. Incoming traffic, if you setup the inbound rule, will always respond on the same IP address as to be expected.
You shouldn't need to do classical routing; the feature has been in the devices for years now, and you will just need the oubound ANY rule, with the xxx.xxx.xxx.82 attached to it, and you will be good to go.
