NAT Configuration on ASA 9.1(1)

dharmendra2shah
Level 1
Level 1

I recently installed an ASA firewall for one of our customer. I am trying to map the web server’s private address to the public address:

The private address is 192.168.207.15

The public address is 71.x.x.51

Here is the NAT configuration. For some reason this configuration is not working. I am not sure what is wrong with this configuration.

object network inside-out

nat (any,outside) static interface

object network new-www

nat (inside,outside) static 71.x.x.51

access-group inside_access_in in interface inside

access-group global_access global

NOTE: Inside network users can access Internet just fine. But I just cannot get natting to work.

Hi,

The only thing that caught my eye on a fast scroll through the configuration was this

sysopt noproxyarp outside

I think the above command might prevent the ASA from responding to ARP requests related to the configuration Static NAT public IP address.

This NAT configuration also seems wierd to me

object network inside-out

nat (any,outside) static interface

If the above is meant to be the Default NAT rule for Internet traffic I would change it to

nat (any,outside) after-auto source dynamic any interface

Hi,

I would recomend the following format for NAT configurations

Default PAT

object-group network DEFAULT-PAT-SOURCE

network-object

nat (any,outside) after-auto source dynamic DEFAULT-PAT-SOURCE interface

Static NAT

object network WWW

host 192.168.207.15

nat (inside,outside) static 71.x.x.51

access-list outside_access_in permit tcp any4 object WWW eq www

access-group outside_access_in in interface outside

I see you have some "global" ACLs configured. I would recomend using 1 ACL per interface instead of global. OR only using global ACLs

But the above should handle your needs. "outside_access_in" ACL name can naturally be something else.

Did you have an ACL permitting the "www" traffic from Internet to the server? Or was there some other problems?

- Jouni

Yes. I do have ACL permitting the www traffic:

access-list global_access extended permit icmp any object new-www

access-list global_access extended permit tcp any object new-www eq www

Ds

Hi,

I'm just wondering why you seem to have an ACL attached to an interface but also a "global" attached ACL that controls traffic through all interfaces.

I havent used 9.x software myself yet so I'm wondering what the ACL format is regarding "any". I remember seeing "any4" and "any6". It would seem "any" still exists there still?

To test the actual firewall rules, could you use the "packet-tracer" command to simulate someone connecting to the Web server.

packet-tracer input outside tcp 71.x.x.51 80

Then copy/paste the output here to see what would happen to connection with the above information.

- Jouni

Thanks Jouni. I'll try the packet-tracer today and let you know the output. I am also going to remove the global ACL and try the other ACL you recommended.

My hunch is most likely removing the global ACL and putting the other ACL you recommended should resolve the issue.

Ds

Jouni-

I believe I have the correct ACLs and the NAT rule but still it is not working.

access-list outside_cryptomap extended permit object-group DM_INLINE_PROTOCOL_1 object inside-network object-group DM_INLINE_NETWORK_3

access-list inside_access_in extended permit ip any any

access-list inside_access_in extended permit icmp any any

access-list XXXX-Systems-Subnet standard permit 192.168.207.0 255.255.255.0

access-list outside_access_in extended permit tcp any4 object www-out eq www

nat (inside,outside) source static inside-network inside-network  destination static DM_INLINE_NETWORK_1 DM_INLINE_NETWORK_1 no-proxy-arp  route-lookup

object network inside-out

nat (any,outside) static interface

object network www-out

nat (inside,outside) static 71.x.x.51

access-group outside_access_in in interface outside

access-group inside_access_in in interface inside

Here is the output of packet-tracker:

packet-tracer input outside tcp 157.166.249.10 4444 71.x.x.51 80

Hi,

Can you show your "inside" and "outside" interface configurations?

I just changed my own ASA to software 9.1(1)

I configured a simply Static NAT and made the ACL and then did the packet-tracer

And everything seems to be working ok.

I don't know why its showing the above result in the packet-tracer for you. I imagine there must be some configuration preventing this from working.

In my case I see "UN-NAT" phase at the start.

Hi,

sysopt noproxyarp outside

I think the above command might prevent the ASA from responding to ARP requests related to the configuration Static NAT public IP address.

This NAT configuration also seems wierd to me

If the above is meant to be the Default NAT rule for Internet traffic I would change it to

nat (any,outside) after-auto source dynamic any interface

- Jouni

Thanks Jouni-

I think it might be :

sysopt noproxyarp outside.

I was troublshooting application performance for site to site VPN. I might have enabled that command. Things did not break until we rebooted the ISP modem. It all makes sense now because the ISP was also saying that the arp is incomplete for the web server IP.

I will try disabling the command and see if that fixes the problem. This time I am quite positive.

Ds

Hi,

Did you get this working? Did the changing of the "proxyarp" setting help at all?

- Jouni

Jouni-

I have not tried yet. I will try that later in the afternoon. I will let you know right away.

Ds

That was it Jouni. As soon as I added "no sysopt noproxyarp outside"

The web site started working from outside world.
