Watchguard Firebox M440

pglover19

Yes... I assume I could use something like teamviewer...

pglover19

If I get teamviewer setup tonight, will you be able remote into my system tonight?

stephenw10

Yes, but SSH to the device would be better if you can.

Steve

pglover19

Once you go in via teamviewer, the M440 device will be on the network and we can use Putty to establish a SSH session to the device.

Do you have a simpler method?

stephenw10

Just setup a port forward to ssh on it on some random high port. Restrict it to my source IP only?
That's what I would do here. You have another pfSense box in front of it?

Steve

pglover19

Not sure how to do that. I will need to do some research to implement your suggestion.

pglover19

Any instructions on how to set this up in pfSense?

stephenw10

Setting up a port forward? Sure: https://www.netgate.com/docs/pfsense/book/nat/port-forwards.html

If the m440 is using only the igb NIC and it's the LAN it might need it's default route setting to your upstream pfSense in order to reply though.

Steve

pglover19

The M440 will have a default address of 192.168.1.1 on the LAN interface which is a valid IP address on my network. I will be able to access the device from any computer on my network.

So, can you provide details on how I would setup port forwarding in pfSense to allow you in?

pglover19

Can you PM me your source IP address.

pglover19

I got it.. Just need to restrict based on your IP address. I had to add some routing on the pfSense setup on the M440. It is working.

pglover19

Were there any information in the WatchGuard OS boot log file that were useful?

pglover19

Any update?

stephenw10

Sorry, busy day. I'll update when I can.

I had the same issue with the 24 ports not working on pfsense. This is from the WG boot:

As you can see watchguard uses a custom lib libwg_pss and some others to make this happen. I'm now trying to use the WG kernel and libs to create a linux distro where all the ports are accessible.
