Hi,

19.19.20.4

Deny IP due to Land Attack from 19.19.20.4 to 19.19.20.4

This is for server - IP which is 1-to-1 NAT

10.1.4.4 ->19.19.20.4

CONFIG:

object network 19.19.20.4-10.1.4.4

nat (inside,outside) static 19.19.20.4 dns

host 10.1.4.4

and same happens with this log:

This is for local host/network 10.44.0.0 - IP which is 1-to-many NAT

19.19.20.244

Deny IP due to Land Attack from 19.19.20.244 to 19.19.20.244

CONFIG:

object network 19.19.20.244-10.44.0.0

nat (inside,outside) dynamic 19.19.20.244

subnet 10.44.0.0 255.255.0.0

Is something with NAT config wrong?

Best regards,

Ivan

Hi Ivan,

Land Attack simply means the packets have the same source ip and destination ip, in your case it seems to be 19.19.20.4 and 19.19.20.244.

Is it possible that 10.1.4.4 is sending packets to 19.19.20.4, or 10.44.0.0/24 to 19.19.20.244 ?

You can set up some captures to find out.

If yes configure identity nat for that specific destination.

Maybe create a nonat rule to packets on the same private network?
