Hi

Can anyone help me understand why this is not working ?


  • I have a firewall in L3 mode terminating my ISP connection.
  • I have configured 2 ports on the LAN side which are bridged into a single LAN (192.168.1.0/24) - Lets call them LAN1 and LAN2 ports.
  • On the firewall I have setup a port forward from my external IP:Port to internal IP:Port - Added the NAT rule/corresponding firewall rule.
  • When I try to access a machine on LAN2 port from LAN 1 port --> it works
  • When I try to access a machine on LAN2 port from WAN port --> doesn't work .

I looked at the live logs and can see the packet from WAN hit the NAT rule and is allowed. I can also see the packet that the firewall sends to the bridge group after the NAT rule.[/img]
The packet disappears after this - I don't see it on the machine. Verified the machine has no firewall.

The following parameters are set as below

net.link.bridge.pfil_member is set to 0
net.link.bridge.pfil_bridge   is set to 1

P.S - I am running this on a baremetal box (no VMware)
