http web server setup - 861W

Hi Cisco Support Forum,

we are having some trouble setting up our router (Cisco 861W) webserver on the LAN so that it can be accessed from outside (http via port 80).

When we try to access it via the web address, we just get the login window of the Cisco router software??

Please let us know if you need more configuration details to help us.

Greetings Benjamin

Hi,

Have you setuped the NAT properly in your 861 router.

As per best practices the NAT should be configured like below for your scenario.

ip nat inside source static tcp webserver_ip 80 public_ip extendable

ip nat inside source static tcp 10.10.10.10 80 206.206.206.206 80 extendable

Hope this clear you.

Please click on the correct answer if this answered your question.
Regards,
Naidu.

Here is our running config with the NAT configuration

When we try to access the webserver from inside our network:

We have tried first with only the inside-out rule but we still got the login window to the router.

Then we added a outside-in rule, but it didn't have any effect.

When we try to access the webserver from outside our local network, we get the following error:

Error

The requested URL could not be retrieved

When trying to retreive the url xxxxx

The following error was encountered:

Connection to Failed

The system returned:

(111) Connection refused

We use CCProfessional in combination with CCExpress to setup the router. Screendumps attached.

Hope somebody can help us out!

Cheers,

Cisco Configuration Professional (Cisco CP) is installed on this device

and it provides the default username "cisco" for  one-time use. If you have

already used the username "cisco" to login to the router and your IOS image

supports the "one-time" user option, then this username has already expired.

You will not be able to login to the router with this username after you exit

this session.

It is strongly suggested that you create a new username with a privilege level

of 15 using the following command.

Hi Alain,

we have deleted the outside statement - still we get the login-window to "level_15" or view_access. The web server is up and running and can be accessed locally on the IP-address. We have not rebooted the router.

Hi,

To which address and from where are you trying to connect?

I've just tried from my computer and it works( Ubuntu rocks).

Hi Alain,

now it works from outside for us as well! Don't know what went wrong in the first case.

So now we only need to be able to see the webserver from inside our local network - here we still get the login window.

Thanks for your help until now,

Benjamin

Just use the internal IP of your Apache server then.

Using the LAN ip of our web server is not optimal: If a script on the server refers back to another script on the server, things fails.

So we have to be able to access the server by domain name from LAN.

We could set up the DNS locally on the server and the workstations. However I think this is a kind of 'dirty' way to fix the problem.

Can you explain why?

So we have to be able to access the server by domain name from LAN.

Maybe youcould use 2 DNS Servers, one for internal users and the other for external?

Things fails because:

1. We can not access our web server from lan by domain name.

2. Our webserver is situated on lan.

So: Our web server cant refer to itself by domain name.

Ex:

script1.php:

script2.php:

When script1.php attempts to call script2.php, it fails.
