port to port

[TheScarletQ]

I have recently run into an issue of not being able to connect to a particular service on one of my servers when connecting to it from outside of the network.  Currently, my thought is to configure it in such a way that when connecting from outside the network it would translate the web port to the port of the service.  However, this cannot filter all traffic because it would render the web server itself useless and transfer everything to the other port.  How is it possible to configure it so that it takes everything coming into my network on the web port and filter it by url to translate the ports?

Hello,

if I understand you correctly, you want to translate specific URL's to specific ports ?

[TheScarletQ]

Yes.  Since you put it that way it sounds a little ridiculous.  Is that possible or is there another solution that I haven't considered?

[balaji.bandi]

you can achieve this  in web server configuration side, what kind of web server is this ?

[Georg Pauwen]

I agree with Balaji. You would need to create static NAT entries that define URL's, but IOS is not granular enough for that.

Hello

Am I missing something here?

The server will have the appropriate ports open to its related application anyway So when connecting to it from the outside you will only need to specify the global outside ip address or the fqdn of the web server and the protocol port it needs to connect to (assuming nat is involved)
