Static Port Address Translation 8.4

Hello Experts,
Is the static Port Address Translation is bidirectional in 8.4 ???
I have configured static port address translation for the 2 server with same Public IP for the port 80 and 23. The strange thing is when they initiate a connection to the outside world they are allowed access to the internet as they are not included in the Dynamic Port address translation pool.
object network inside network.
subnet 192.168.10.0 255.255.255.0
Can anybody help me.
Thanks

  • Assigning static port address

    Hello All,
    We are having a standalone BOE server. I have a doubt about assigning static port addresses to servers. We had a standard deployment of BusinessObjects 4.0 SP2. Our admin has assigned static request port address to APS, CMS, FRS, Crystal report servers and Dashboard server instead of using "Auto assign".
    Does it necessary to assign static port address to these servers and does it necessary to open these ports on firewall?
    What are the advantages of assigning static port address instead of using "Auto assign"?
    As per my understanding, request port of APS, FRS and other servers are used to communicate those with CMS. And CMS and all other servers are hosted on the same server. Then why do we need to open those ports on firewall in a server.
    Appreciate your help and suggestions.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Aashutosh

    Hi,
    if you dont have a Firewall in between your Client PCs and the BOE Server you dont need to assign static ports. You only need this if a Firewall is controlling the communication between these two parts.
    Most of the Services communicate only with the CMS - thats correct.
    But if you use the BI LaunchPad only for vieweing and creating Reports like WebI you need to open the Port 8080 for the Application Server.
    If you are using Front- End Clients for viewing and or editing Reports you need to open the CMS Port 6400 and assign a static Port to the IFRS and OFRS and open these ports too.
    Regards
    -Seb.

  • RVL200 Port Address Translation

    Hi,
    Does the RVL200 offer Port Address Translation and it so where do I find the feature in the web interface. So far I have only found Port Forwarding and Port Triggering. The RVL200 has got the latest firmware installed (1.1.12.1).
    Thankyou,
    Robin Horn

    The port address translation rule can be configured at Setup>UPnP page. You would have to add a Service that specifies the External port and Internal port. Note that the UPnP checkbox does not need to be checked. (The feature is known as Asymmetric forwarding, as opposed to the regular port forwarding.)

  • Port address translation

    I am using MS Exchange and Windows Small Business Server behind a WRT54G.  I have enabled Outlook Web Access on port 80 in the WRT54G.  I have another device that requires port 80.  I am told that routers can send inquires on one port to another port.  Can anyone tell me how to setup the WRT54G to do this port translation?

    Con you provide more details like the hardware and firmware version of router.
    Also for this you need to enable the UPnP forwarding on router.

  • TC Port Forwarding Static IP Address

    I have a domain for which I've pointed the DNS to my static IP address.
    My network flow is as follows: Internet --> Westell DSL Modem (AT&T) --> TC.
    I'd like TC to forward port 80 requests to a Mac Mini. On the Mini Web sharing is enabled. From any machine on my network I can hit the internal address of the Mini and I get the default Apache page.
    Using the AirPort Utility (TC) I've enabled Port Mapping --> Personal Web Sharing. The Private IP Address is the IP Address of the Mini. Public TCP Port = 80. Private TCP Port = 80.
    Now, where "I think" the problem lies in the TC Internet Connection. When IPv4 uses DHCP, TC gets a 192.168.1.* IP address AND a 192.168.1.* Router Address (the addresses are different).
    When I set Ipv4 "manually" I don't know what to put in the Router Address. TC is still the router but what address do I use now??? If I use the static IP for both IP & Router address I get no internet connection.
    Thanks in advance!

    I gathered from this thread (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9114081&#9114081) that the Router Address is synonymous with Gateway Address.
    After speaking with my ISP my static IP and gateway addresses don't start with the same octet. So the Airport Utility complains about them not being compatible.
    I wouldn't think of using all ZEROs in the subnet mask.
    Any ideas?

  • Port Forwarding and Static IP addresses

    Netcomm NB1300 router and Airport Express.
    I want to use and old G3 mac running 10.3.9 as a server for HTTP and FTP. The Mac is currently connected via Airport but I can connect it via Ethernet if necessary.
    I understand that I will have to activate Port Forwarding on my Router with Ports 21 and 80 to allow external Internet access to the G3. I will also have to configure DHCP Manually for a Static IP address and probably link up with a Free DNS service to maintain reliable access to the G3.
    I have other computers on the network, two Macs (Ethernet / 10.3.9 & Airport 10.4.11) and two PC's (one with Vista, one with XP / both on Airport). Only one of the extra Macs is connected via ethernet, the rest are connected via Airport.
    Will I have to assign Static IP addresses to all the computers or just the one I want to use as a server?
    And also, can anyone tell me about Port Forwarding via Port 22 to give more security from external observation/attacks? I know nothing about this security measure.
    Thanks in advance.

    I am now assuming I will be able to access the 'server' from an external location. Very optimistic! But I can't test that for a couple of days.
    Ah, but you've given up too soon! You can access your web server from outside your network real easy: you just need to find an external client you can point back to your site. I like to use the W4C validator to do that. It has the happy side effect of also telling you if your web page markup is valid. So you'd point your browser to the validator page:
    http://validator.w3.org/
    I like to choose "More Options" and tell it to show the page source. That way I can also verify that it's seeing the page I want it to see.
    If I disconnect the iBook from Ethernet, can it still be accessible from an external location if it is connected to the Router via Airport, or do I have do so something like Port Forwarding with my Airport Express as well? Note the iBook can still connect to the Internet via Airport.
    It would depend on how your Airport is set up. I think there are a couple of ways to set them up. One is to make the Airport a DHCP server, which would make the wireless network essentially a separate network. In that case, you'd have to forward throught the Airport, too.
    My wireless network, though, is set up to bridge, so it's all one network. In that case, all I'd have to do to forward wirelessly to a client would be to set up the forward on the main router.
    Being that persons other than myself will be accessing the iBook via FTP, do I give them the user account password of the Mac, or can I set a password in the Router or something else?
    Also, when accessing the iBook on my local network using Cyberduck, I can see the entire directory of the iBook's user account. Is there a way to limit access to just one folder, such as the Public folder, or a self-designated folder?
    Unfortunately, I don't know anything about setting up FTP. I would suggest that you look into maybe making an account on the iBook specifically for the FTP user and only give out that username and password. You might want to poke around in the Networking and the Web and Unix discussions in the Mac OS X Technologies area. I've seen a number of posts there about setting up FTP, and you might be able to find your answers there.

  • Port Forwarding and Printing with Static IP Address

    Hey there -
    I am trying to setup a network printer that can be printed to from anywhere in the world. My organization has 5 static IP addresses given to us by our ISP. Four of those I have on computers, and one of them I have on my Linksys router (WRT54G v.8).
    What I want to do is be able to setup a printer on my router that I can print to from anywhere I have an internet connection. My wireless router's static IP address is 74.172.54.XXX - The address on my network is 192.168.7.1 - I have a printer statically assigned the IP address 192.168.7.2 - and I have a port forwarding for port 70 to forward to 192.168.7.2
    In theory, I would think that now I could print to 74.172.54.XXX:70 and have no problems. But that doesn't seem to be working. Even printing to 192.168.7.1:70 doesn't seem to work either.
    Also, the printer has a web GUI interface that if I type http://192.168.7.1/ into my browser it comes up, so in theory I would think typing http://74.172.54.XXX:70 into my browser it should come up (but it doesn't nor does http://192.168.7.1:70).
    Anybody got any suggestions? I tried to do a search about this, but ever Port Forwarding question seemed to deal with gaming (which I have no desire to do). Thanks!
    I will include two screen snapshots of what I am talking about:
    Thanks for any help.

    Is the router setup to accept static connections?
    I have my router set up to accept both, so from 192.168.1.100 to 192.168.1.192 the addresses are static the other addresses are given by DHCP.
    If you do not define a range and the address your laptop has as static IP conflicts with the address given by DHCP your loose ... as in you get no address.
    Set up of that feature may depend on your type of router but usually any decent router will have that capability ... read your manual for specifics about your unit.
    Best of luck.

  • Network Address Translation, Automatic Port Forwarding

    Does the Airport Extreme do
    Network Address Translation? Do I have to do something to make NAT functional?
    Does the Airport Extreme automatically forward ports? Or is this something I have to do manually
    sorry if this is discussed already but a Search of Forum did did not yield the information I need.

    Hi Barbara, welcome to the discussion area!
    +Does the Airport Extreme do Network Address Translation?+
    Yes
    +Do I have to do something to make NAT functional?+
    No, if you have the device configured as a router with the Connection Sharing settings set to Share a public IP address so that the AirPort Extreme is handling the chore of assigning IP addresses to connected devices.
    If you have the AirPort Extreme configured as a "bridge", then NAT is handled by the router that is upstream of the AirPort Extreme.
    +Does the Airport Extreme automatically forward ports? Or is this something I have to do manually+
    Port forwarding must be setup manually on the AirPort Extreme using AirPort Utility, the application used to setup the AirPorts.

  • ?? How to set up actiontec MI242wr rev F router to accomodate Static IP addresses, port forwarding?

    I just got a new Verizon/Actiontec replacement router and I want to configure 4 or 5 static IP addresses beginning at 192.168.1.201  and above.
    At this point, I have changed the DHCP range from 192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.250, to  192.168.1.2 - 192.168.1.200, so that is now the DHCP pool.  That presumably leaves anything above 192.168.1.200 open for static IP assignments.
    a) So now  how do I create a Static IP reservation for a device? (what router screens should I use? do the device(s) that I want a static IP have to be connected?, etc.)
    b) Once I have the static IP address reserved/configured, how can I make the appropriate port forward rule(s) for the devices?  Specifically, I want to allow SSH connections to each of the static IP addresses/devices.
    (I tried this once but the router complained after I made the first port forwarding rule saying that it was already in use!?!? and I want to avoid this problem again).
    Thanks
    -J

    thanks for your suggestion.  I figured out what to do...I let each device receive an address by DHCP, and then in the router, I went to Advanced -> Connections, double clicked on the device to get more details and  set  the "Static Lease" check box.
    What this does is a address reservation for the device, but still configures it via DHCP.
    It would be nice if the router manual noted this small detail, that devices can be configured as having a static address 'reservation' that is administered by the DHCP service, OR, one can set a 'static IP address' by ensuring that the device address is outside of the DHCP pool. 

  • Static MAC address without configuration

    Hello,
    i am a german guy, so please excuse my bad english.
    I have a question about static MAC addresses on a WS-C3750G-48TS Switch.
    I have no static adresses configured on my switch, but see some when execute the "show mac address-table static" command. And i mean not the 0000.0c07.ac01 addresse for HSRP, Spanning-tree or something else, which are forwarded to the CPU, i mean entries like this:
    Switch#show MAC address-table interface g2/0/47
              Mac Address Table
    Vlan    Mac Address       Type        Ports
       3    1212.1212.1212    STATIC      Gi2/0/47
       3    1414.1414.1414    STATIC      Gi2/0/47
    Total Mac Addresses for this criterion: 2
    This entries not configured or dynamicly learned.
    I suspected functions like gratitious-arp, but this is only for IP<->MAC translation. Then i have searched functions like gratitious-mac or mac-notification. I have searched for a function with tells the switchport: "Hey, that is my MAC address. There is no need to learn this address dynamicly", but with no luck.
    Does anybody can tell me, why these MAC addresses are shown static, and not dynamicly?
    Thanks for help.

    Hi Thomas,
    Are there any port-security related configurations in interface Gi2/0/47? Could you post the running-configuration of this interface in concern, output of show mac-address-table interface Gi2/0/47 and also could you let me know what is connected to this interface?
    Thanks,

  • Can I assign Airport Express to static IP Address?

    Current setup - Airport Extreme attached to cable modem with 2 hard drives, Airport Express as print server in separate room with USB printer attached (just changed from Linksys with sometimes working NetGear print server). Clients accessing the network: 2 Windows XP, 1 Windows 7, iPads, iPhones, iPods, Apple TV, and sometimes a Mac Book.
    The issue is that we don't keep the printing system on at all times (light switch with Express and printer plugged in); We dont't do much printing, and I print to pdf most of the time. As a result, the Express IP address changes every time it's turned on, requiring me to change the port settings on the printer properties before anyone can print. Is there a way to assign a static IP address to the Express so that I don't become tech support every time someone else in the house needs to print something?

    Is there a way to assign a static IP address to the Express so that I don't become tech support every time someone else in the house needs to print something?
    Yes. The first order of business is to find the AirPort ID for the AirPort Express. You do this by opening AirPort Utility and clicking once on the Express. In the area to the right, jot down the AirPort ID.
    Still in AirPort Utility, now click on the AirPort Extreme and click Manual Setup
    Click the Internet icon
    Click the DHCP tab below the Advanced icon
    Look for the DHCP Reservations area and click on the + (plus) button at the bottom
    Enter a description, for example AirPort Express
    Click the MAC Address button and click Continue
    Enter the AirPort ID in the MAC Address box
    Assign the IP address you want the Express to use, for example 10.0.1.20
    Click Done, then click Apply and the AirPort Extreme will restart
    It would be a good idea to power cycle the entire network as follows:
    Power everything down...all devices, order is not important
    Power up the modem first, then AirPort Extreme, then Express, then devices

  • Is an 'external' static IP address required to set up DNS

    Hi there
    I'm going to be setting up a OSX Server 10.3 machine as an open directory master, to take advantage of single sign-on capabilities.
    From what I have read in manuals and in this topic: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=977178&tstart=15 , it is necessary to configure the DNS service first. However, the topic talks about having an external IP address for the server, as well as for the internet router.
    Is this the only method that will work? The network only has one external IP address as far as I am aware.
    Any thoughts greatly appreciated.
    Matt

    The answer is, it depends.
    If you want your server to provide any external services then it will need an external IP address. Now, depending on your network, you may be able to use a single IP address on your router, having it NAT incoming connections via port forwarding - that's a common setup.
    The bigger issue is whether you need a static IP address or can live with a dynamic one. A static IP address is required if you're running certain services such as DNS or Mail. Other services might be able to get by with a dynamic IP, depending on what you're doing with them (for example, it's OK to run a personal web site on a dynamic IP address, but you wouldn't want to do that for a corporate web site that gets a lot of traffic.

  • On UPnP and NAT (Network Address Translation)

    Why UPnP is an often asked Question.
    This article goes a long way to say why.
    A couple of Quotes
    *What is UPnP?*
    Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) is an architecture for pervasive peer-to-peer network connectivity of PCs and intelligent devices or appliances, particularly within the home. UPnP builds on Internet standards and technologies, such as TCP/IP, HTTP, and XML, to enable these devices to automatically connect with one another and work together to make networking - particularly home networking - possible for more people.
    *Are there other ways to solve the problem of NAT traversal? If so, why is using UPnP the best choice?*
    Yes, there are other ways to solve this problem, but no other mechanism currently exists as an industry standard to address this problem in an automatic way for the consumer and in such a universally-applicable way for the developer.
    Simply Automated Starter Package
    Other approaches require either manual intervention by the user or they require special development efforts by the Internet gateway device vendor and the software developer to handle the NAT traversal needs of specific applications. As a result, UPnP is uniquely able to solve this important problem.
    *Consumer does the work.* The manual intervention methods of NAT traversal require a consumer to use a browser, a graphical user interface-based tool on the PC, or a command line interface tool on the PC to change some settings on the Internet gateway device in the home. While some technical enthusiast users have little difficulty with this, many consumers do not feel comfortable doing this. Further, many consumers may not even realize that NAT traversal problems are interfering with their use of services across the Internet. _The user may be attempting to play a multi-player game or engage in some other peer-to-peer service but find he or she cannot connect for some reason._ This leads to troubleshooting, support calls, customer dissatisfaction, and reluctance on the part of the user to try new services or experiences in the future.
    *Developer does the work.* To avoid requiring the consumer to solve this NAT traversal problem manually, some Internet gateway device vendors have written and included application layer gateway support into their devices. This application layer gateway software is designed with specific applications in mind. In other words, the device vendor writes and tests specific code that will automatically enable one application to go through the NAT. If the application software is updated, the application layer code the device vendor wrote may have to be updated and tested again. This one-at-a-time way of chasing the NAT traversal problem is manageable for device vendors when there are only a few peer-to-peer or relevant applications to consider, but this approach does not scale well to 100s or 1000s of applications, can be very expensive to pursue, and likely requires specific knowledge of how each of these applications function. The better way to approach this problem is to have the device vendor add software or firmware to their device once to understand UPnP and have other devices and software be able to communicate with the NAT device using this same technology. UPnP is uniquely able to fulfill this role today.
    I have underlined a passage in the last.
    I hope this helps in some way.

  • DNS and Static IP Address Question on Solaris v10 X86

    I�ve recently installed Solaris v10 X86 and have two questions. The system is a Dell E521 with 4GB RAM and 1GB SysKonnect NIC, and internet is provided via a cable modem, that�s plugged into a Netgear router, and the Solaris 10 box is plugged into the Netgear router via a CAT5 ethernet cable.
    1. I can connect to my router login page using the following URL:
    http://192.168.1.1/start.htm and I can also connect to various web pages such as yahoo, if I first "ping yahoo.com" (on another machine that�s internet enabled) and then plug the web site�s ip address into the Solaris/Mozilla browser. So it appears that I haven�t been successful at pointing the Solaris x86 at a DNS server to resolve the DNS name.
    2. I've purchased a commercially available software package and it requires a static ip address for this Solaris x86 server. If the ip address changes, it�ll stop working by design and require that I reacquire the license file. When connecting through this Netgear router, how do I lock this Solaris v10 x86 server into a specific ip address? (the ip address floats presently when cycling my PC�s on/off) presently, and assume the Solaris box will too, usually through an ip range of 192.168.1.<1 through 5>

    Excerpt from doing a prtconf -D command:
    pci10de,26f, instance #0 (driver name: pci_pci)
    pci1028,8010, instance #0 (driver name: hci1394)
    pci1148,5021, instance #0 (driver name: skge)
    pci1028,1ed
    pci1022,1100
    The NIC is a SysKonnect 9821 1GB Ethernet card. The drivers in Solaris 10 were apparently very old and didn't install drivers or configure/plumb when I installed Solaris 10, so I downloaded the
    latest drivers (hard to find!), followed the instructions and got the NIC drivers installed and then plumbed.
    My router's ip address appears to be 192.168.1.1 and in one of the articles I've read, there is a recommendation to create a file (touch) within /etc named defaultrouter and enter the router's ip address. I did this, and the file now contains:
    192.168.1.1
    I also read where another file called resolv.conf needed to be pointed to a DNS server, which in this case, according to my Netgear router, and according to ipconfig/all on another WinBox on the same network, also shows the same 192.168.1.1 address for the DNS, so I created that file too (wasn't there) and it contains:
    nameserver 192.168.1.1
    There is a host name file called hostname.skge0 and it contains one line:
    INTHOST
    There is a hosts file, and it contains:
    127.0.0.1 localhost loghost homex86
    192.168.1.3 INTHOST
    There is a netmasks file, and other than the commented out lines, it appears to contain one relevant line:
    192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0
    There is a nsswitch.conf file and other than the commented out lines, it contains:
    passwd: files
    group: files
    hosts: files
    ipnodes: files
    networks: files
    protocols: files
    rpc: files
    ethers: files

    printers: user files
    auth_attr: files
    prof_attr: files
    project: files
    tnrhtp: files
    tnrhdb: files
    There is an nsswitch.dns file:
    passwd: files
    group: files
    ipnodes: files dns
    networks: files
    protocols: files
    rpc: files
    ethers: files
    netmasks: files

    printers: user files
    auth_attr: files
    prof_attr: files
    project: files
    tnrhtp: files
    tnrhdb: files
    Finally, I've also seen some advice using the folling command (and I tried it):
    "route add default 192.168.1.1" as an alternative method of setting up route table
    The only other command I've tried is:
    "ifconfig skge0 192.168.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 up" but I suspect that was redundant as the plumb command I used to get the NIC functioning earlier probably already provided what was needed.
    Finally, on this small network, I ran an ipconfig/all on a Windows based PC, to see what network settings were reported through the wireless connection, and this is an excerpt of that information:

    I�ve recently installed Solaris v10 X86 and have two
    questions. The system is a Dell E521 with 4GB RAM
    and 1GB SysKonnect NIC, and internet is provided via
    a cable modem, that�s plugged into a Netgear router,
    and the Solaris 10 box is plugged into the Netgear
    router via a CAT5 ethernet cable.
    1. I can connect to my router login page using the
    following URL:
    http://192.168.1.1/start.htm and I can also connect
    to various web pages such as yahoo, if I first "ping
    yahoo.com" (on another machine that�s internet
    enabled) and then plug the web site�s ip address into
    the Solaris/Mozilla browser. So it appears that I
    haven�t been successful at pointing the Solaris x86
    at a DNS server to resolve the DNS name.You can either copy nsswitch.dns to nsswitch.conf, or you can modify nsswitch.conf so that 'dns' is used for hostname lookups.
    2. I've purchased a commercially available software
    package and it requires a static ip address for this
    Solaris x86 server. If the ip address changes, it�ll
    stop working by design and require that I reacquire
    the license file. When connecting through this
    Netgear router, how do I lock this Solaris v10 x86
    server into a specific ip address? (the ip address
    floats presently when cycling my PC�s on/off)
    presently, and assume the Solaris box will too,
    usually through an ip range of 192.168.1.<1 through
    5>One method is setting the router so that the server's MAC address is tied to a specific IP.
    Otherwise you can edit /etc/hostname.<interface> and place a static address there, forgoing DHCP services from the router. You may want the address to appear outside the router's DHCP range.

  • Hyper-V Gen 2 Windows Server 2012 R2 VM cannot define static IP address

    Hi,
    I have setup a physical server with Windows Server 2012 R2. It has only the Hyper-V role installed. The physical server has two NICs that I have teamed with Hyper-V port as the load balancer. I have created 1 VM on this Hyper-V server that is a
    Generation 2 VM running Windows Server 2012 R2. It has one NIC in the guest OS that is connected to the Hyper-V switch.
    Now the Guest OS works fine and network connectivity is great when using DHCP but when I configure a static IP address in the Guest OS all network connectivity is lost even with correct IP configuration. Is this something to do with a Gen 2 VM?
    A little more background - We have another Hyper-V server running Windows Server 2012 R2 with the same NIC teaming in the Host OS, on this Hyper-V there is a GEN 1 Windows Server 2012 R2 that has a static IP configured which is working normally.
    Any help is appreciated.

    I have resolved the issue. It appeared the hard IP phones were using the same IP range that I was attempting to use so of course the VM could not use the IP Address. Silly mistake.
    Elliot, I suggest you mark as Helpful and Answer any responses above that were helpful to you in getting this issue resolved. This is how the forums work.
    For example, if a response mentioned "VM generation has no effect on the vNIC." and that pointed you in the direction of troubleshooting networking instead of wasting your time looking into VM generations, that may be considered "Helpful"
    If a response mentioned "Make sure you're using valid IPv4 settings" and indeed you ended up having invalid IP settings such as a duplicate IP, this may be considered "Answer"
