Is the traffic allowed (out) on the destination interface?

As best I know.  As listed above, I have the setting to pass.  Initially I had it set to rule and there was a rule in the WAN interface to match.

Anytime I try to open a port and then check it using one of the online tools, the port never shows to be open.  While this is great and I "feel" secure it is killing me!

I am by no means a firewall guy so if you can point me in the right direction it would be great!

Thanks!

Good morning all,

Have stood up OPNSense and am running 23.7.1_3.  Using my old router I was forwarding port 8000 to my NVR and it was working for years with no issues.  I have tried to setup port forward for the same using OPNSense but I cannot seem to get this to work to save my life!  Momma is not happy that she cannot see the cameras!

I have tried to set things based on all emails I have reviewed.  Checked packet capture to confirm the external address is showing the same as myip.com as I saw that was an issue for someone else.  I have changed Filter Rule Association from rule to pass to test with no luck.  I made sure redirection is set (all three check boxes) in system default.  I have tried accessing the unit from outside my network on my phone as well as internally with no joy.

Current settings are:

Interface: WAN
TCP/IP Version: IPv4
Protocol: TCP/UDP
Destination: WAN Address
Destination Port Range: 8000 | 8000
Redirect Target IP: [Recorder IP]
Redirect Target Port: 8000
NAT Reflection: Enable
Filter Rule Association: Pass

ISP is AT&T which is set to Bridge mode

What the heck am I doing wrong?

Thank you in advance for your help in advance!

I am trying to get this to work for my video recorder as well and I have tried all kinds of different configurations with no luck.  I am coming from Ubiquiti Gateway and it was working perfectly on my Ubiquiti system.  Wondering also if there might be an issue with my Ubiquiti Controller interfering with the traffic?  I have disabled all of the original rules but have not changed anything.

Thanks in advance,

Good evening,

I was wondering if someone could help me please.  I had to put the project on pause for a minute - I have been using the firewall on another network and it has been working flawlessly.  My UBT Gateway has since bit the dust and I must move that network to the OPNSense device, however, I cannot get port forwarding to work to save my life.  I have completed all of the entries noted in this tutorial as well as many others I have reviewed but I can never seem to get the port checkers to tell me the port is open. 

Interface: WAN
TCP/IP Version: IPv4
Protocol: TCP/UDP
Source: WAN Address
Source port range: (other) 8000 from and to
Destination: WAN Address
Destination Port range: Any Any
Redirect target IP: Single Host with IP address of recorder
Redirect target port: (other) 8000
Allowed the rule to create the associated WAN rule and checked that it is there.

Thoughts please?

Thanks in advance!
