Title: Gateway hitting my reverse proxy constantly?
Post by: FLBuckeye on November 22, 2024, 05:25:37 PM
Made this account just to ask this, but I've used these forums to assist in my setup. I'm a rookie at networking, so this question might have a simple answer, but I just don't know where to ask other than here. 192.168.x.1 is my firewall/gateway, and 192.168.x.5 is my reverse proxy (NPM in a docker container). Why would my gateway be hitting my proxy constantly from somewhat random ports? This type of behavior is constant.

EDIT: Added screenshot of the behavior from firewall log to attachement.

Direction is always "out". So maybe I am reading this wrong, and something from my proxy is going out from my interface to my local gateway?

Are you running a reverse proxy on OPNsense as well?

Or did you state a gateway in the LAN interface settings by any chance?

Reverse proxy is running in a docker container, on separate hardware.

No gateway stated in the LAN interface tab. This is a VLAN if it is relevant.

The only else I can think of, would be an outbound NAT rule on LAN. But why would you have add it?

No such rule exists on LAN. Appreciate the replies though. thank you!
