hello,
I m using a cisco 1841 router to allow access to intenal web site from outside :
Router: Wan(f0/1) = 192.168.0.143, Lan(f0/0)= 192.168.159.100,
web server : 192.168.159.50
ip nat inside source static tcp 192.168.159.50 80 interface FastEthernet0/1 8080
it's ok , for users coming from outside, however ,I want to use the wan address too for internal users to acces the web site; means 192.168.0.143:8080 instead of 192.168.159.50, seems that don't work by default as the traffic coming from lan to the outside interface ip is not natted, and the router answers it does not have 8080 ports open:
looked for articles and seems its related to the order of processing a packet at the level of a router, but is there any way to change it...
regards
