How do I confiure my router such that my accessing my public ip internally translates to the correct private IP.

Hi guys,

I have a problem with my web application. I cannot access it from my internal network using my static public IP (i.e 49.123.456.7). However I can access it from an external network using my static public IP. Is there a way for me to allow access internally as well as externally?

I am using Cisco 800 series router. Here is my configuration:

Is the IP 49.123.456.7, is your application IP?

Can you provide the traceroute for the IP 49.123.456.7 if yes.

Hey Adeeb,

Logically thinking If you trying for a public IP i.e.., you Server with Public IP, You device will try to access the WAN interface and searches the Internet and then it will come to know it is available at the you office network and comes back to your WAN interface where you have a command IP NAT outside for the IP which you are trying hence a loop.

Hi Thanveer,

Thanks for your reply. However I cannot provide a traceroute because my actual public ip leads to sensitive info. Anyway what I can tell you is that it is resolved by my ISP's DNS.

Anyway it may seem like logical thinking however in reality what is happening is that my private IP is translated to my public IP when going into the internet which then redirects it back to my public IP. So technically I am "surfing myself". Thats why I think there is an error.

Adeeb

Hey Adeeb,

However it is good to hear that the issue has got resolved.

Please rate the helpful tags it may help others.

You should switch from traditional NAT to NVI:

http://inetpro.org/wiki/NAT:_access_outside_global_address_from_the_inside

this is what i would do in your case:

interface FastEthernet4.1103

no ip nat outside

ip nat enable

interface Vlan1

no ip nat inside

ip nat enable

no ip nat inside source list NAT_Addresses interface FastEthernet4.1103 overload

no ip nat inside source static tcp 192.168.1.198 80 49.123.456.7 80 extendable

no ip nat inside source static tcp 192.168.1.198 443 49.123.456.7 443 extendable

no ip nat inside source static tcp 192.168.1.198 8090 49.123.456.7 8090 extendable

ip nat source list NAT_Addresses interface FastEthernet4.1103 overload

ip nat source static tcp 192.168.1.198 80 49.123.456.7 80 extendable

ip nat source static tcp 192.168.1.198 443 49.123.456.7 443 extendable

ip nat source static tcp 192.168.1.198 8090 49.123.456.7 8090 extendable

end

Hi Francesco,

Thanks for your reply, but your solution cannot solve my problem.

I was following exactly your command but no idea why still cannot access my public static IP 49.123.456.7 from local network.

Adeeb

What is done by ISP's DNS to resolve the issue? can there be any problem because of that?

Hi Thanveer,

The issue is not resolved yet.

Regards,

Adeeb

sorry Adeeb, I was confused.

You meant that IP is resolved by DNS of ISP.

It must work with what Mr Francesco given, Can you spare the impact of rebooting the router....

Regards
Thanveer
"Everybody is genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is a stupid."

Hi

have you tried to reboot the router? It might be required since that change

is quite impacting.

Please let me know if it helps

Hi Francesco,

Yes I can reboot the router later. I shall let you know. Meanwhile here are some of the nvi translations from the router:

tcp 49.123.456.7:443    192.168.1.198:443  ---                ---

tcp 49.123.456.7:2492   192.168.1.198:2492 65.51.162.241:2492 65.51.162.241:2492

tcp 49.123.456.7:8090   192.168.1.198:8090 ---                ---

udp 49.123.456.7:37     192.168.1.199:137  192.168.1.255:137  192.168.1.255:137

My server's are using the 443 and the 8090 port (the one on 8090 is actually a virtual server). The translations work fine with other websites but they cannot translate only the servers from an internal source.

Here are some remote logins from external public IP we have tested:

tcp 202.130.153.152:61510  202.130.153.152:61510    49.123.456.7:443         192.168.1.198:443

tcp 42.68.125.235:36378     42.68.125.235:36378        49.123.456.7:443         192.168.1.198:443

tcp 42.68.125.235:36382     42.68.125.235:36382        49.123.456.7:443         192.168.1.198:443

If there is any other alternative that does not involve restarting the router do let me know. I am not sure when exactly we can reboot the router in the working hour.

Regards,

Adeeb

i'm not quite sure... you could avoid rebooting trying

clear ip nat nvi translations *

clear ip nat translations *

Dear Francesco,

Can we do

clear xlate [global ip1[-ip2] [netmask mask]] [local ip1[-ip2] [netmask mask]]
[gport port1[-port2]] [lport port1[-port2]] [interface if_name] [state state]

Regards

No, that's the equivalent command for pix/asa/fwsm
