forwarding with pbf No Nat

L6 Presenter

Hi,

We wanted to forward the traffic coming on public interface (1.1.1.1) with port 80 to an another ip address on another interface (DMZ - 2.2.2.2)

just to forward, not want to NAT,

we've written a Pbf untrust to 1.1.1.1 with destination port 80 forward eth/DMZ 2.2.2.2

That did not work.Also traffic doesn't match to that pbf.What is missing ?

Your understanding is correct; pbf should come before NAT and it should supersede traditional routing as well.

If your traffic is coming in on zone/interface WAN3 and destined to the destination IP you have configured, and the firewall is not forwarding the packets to eth1/11, then I'll suggest you open a ticket to have this looked into.

You can verify the ingress and egress interfaces/zones of the packet by running 'show session id #' in CLI as well. It is possible that the ingress of the packet is not matching your configured PBF policy.

Could you post the output of 'show running pbf-policy' or a screen shot of your configuration, to verify that the config is correct.

Thanks,

test {

        id 5;

        from WAN3;

        source any;

        destination 8X.10X.10.7X;

Hello,

Based on your policy it looks like you are accessing a private ip (dmz) using oublic ip address.

correct me if I am wrong.

In that situation you need nat.

you can forward a public ip to a private ip.I just wanted to tell pbf is not working.when I hit used rules it comes with colour.session is not matching to pbf.

flow logic, pbf is first.Nat is later.We also have a destination Nat rule.

Your understanding is correct; pbf should come before NAT and it should supersede traditional routing as well.

You can also test your pbf rule by using the test command on the CLI:

admin@PA> test pbf-policy-match

+ application        Application name

+ destination        destination IP address

+ destination-port   Destination port

+ from               From zone

+ from-interface     From interface

+ ha-device-id       HA Active-Active device ID

+ protocol           IP protocol value

+ source             source IP address

+ source-user        Source User

  |                  Pipe through a command

  <Enter>            Finish input
