Firewall NAT Port Forward Help

Joel
Thanks for responding.
May be the I didn't explain myself well as the other responders didn't come close to understanding what I am trying to achieve.
Anyway, I have added SSH to Redirect target port.
So, when I ssh to 74.65.78.12 should I be directed to 192.168.1.3?
If so, it doesn't work

Hi,
I have to appreciate that members here aren't too familiar with routers, therefore I'll provide another sample. This time I would like to RDP to a remote Windows Workstation, ip address 192.168.1.2, sitting behind my firewall
The pfSense firewall has an WAN ip address (not real) 74.75.89.1
I have configured the firewall NAT Porward Edit as shown in the image.
Can someone please tell me why this won't work…

What's the corresponding firewall rule look like?

Oops

Should work fine. Does 192.168.1.2 default route back to pfSense? Does it allow inbound MSRDP from "unfriendly" networks?
-
Hi derelict
192.168.1.2 doesn't default to pfsense. However, I an RDP to from unfriendly networks.
I don't undersatnd - it should work
-
Well, the return traffic is going to go wherever the default route tells it to go. If that's not the router node with the NAT translation it's not going to work.
-
The ofsense LAN address is 192.168.1.1, the public address is 74.x.x.x. Are you saying that the default route on the Workstation should be 192.168.1.1?
-
Yes. If you want this to work it has to be.

Ok,
Going to get out of bed and try now..
Back in 5mins

Brilliant
That worked
Thanks Derelict
