iptables - inside accessing outside ip and being bounced back inside
i have a firewwall with 2 nics .. its running iptables. the outside
nic forwards port 80 to an internal webserver on an internal ip. this
works great. if an internal host hits the external ip. traffic does
not go to the internal web server. if an external host hits the
external ip traffic goes to the internal web server fine. what iptable
rule will fix this?
External Host - ipOutsideHost-1
|
|
|
Firewall NIC - ipOutsideFW
Firewall NIC - ipInsideFW
|
|
|
Internal Host - ipInsideHost-1
Internal Host - ipInsideHTTPServer-1
Rules are setup for the following and work
OK - ipInsideHost-1 => ipOutsideHost-1
OK - ipOutsideHost-1 => ipOutsideFW
forwarded to ipInsideHTTPServer-1
The following fails and is what I need a iptables rule for
FAIL - ipInsideHost-1 => ipOutsideFW
forward back to ipInsideHTTPServer-1
Any assistence in writting this rule would be appreciated
Thank you.
