pfSense 2.5.0.a.20201127.0650 NAT Issues

So I assume you have the default gateway set to a gateway group?
Do you see the traffic hit the target from the port forwards?
But replies go out the default gateway as though reply-to tagging is not being applied?

@kiokoman sample of one of my NAT rules:
rdr on lagg0.3081 inet proto { tcp udp } from $admin to (self) port 30001 -> 192.168.2.15 port 3389 rdr on lagg0.3082 inet proto { tcp udp } from $admin to (self) port 30001 -> 192.168.2.15 port 3389 # Reflection redirect rdr on { lagg0.3091 gif0 gif1 lagg1 lagg1.11 lagg1.12 lagg1.13 enc0 openvpn } inet proto { tcp udp } from $admin to (self) port 30001 -> 192.168.2.15 port 3389With this on TIER1 public IP I have access, while on TIER2 - doesn't. If I swap TIER beetween WANs - access also swaps. On pfSense 2.4 and far ago it was works on both WANs as it must. It started right after update to 2.5.0.

@stephenw10 I have WANGW group for IPv4 and WANHEGW group for IPv6. First ISP set to TIER1 and second to TIER2.
On firewall tab of WAN2 I see indication of traffic reaching allow rules and connected states, e.g.: 1/64kb - 1 connected client, 64kb pass, but I not get anything in reply from pfsense - not even 1 bit. If I swap WAN2 to TIER1 and WAN1 to TIER2 then I loss connection on WAN1 and get working on WAN2.
I doesn't know how exactly I need troubleshoot or debug "reply-to tagging applied or not", but from my tests it only one logical conclusion I can make - reply-to not working. If you can explain me how to debug it - please. Or maybe you can try reproduce same setup. -
We need to see the firewall rules added to pass that traffic really. Both what's in the ruleset and the resulting rule table.
I assume lagg0.3081 and lagg0.3082 are your two WANs there?
Run a packet capture for the traffic on the 192.168.2.0/24 interface. So you see the incoming requests? Do you see replies?
Run a pcap on the tier1 WAN whilst testing on the other WAN. Do you see replies leaving via the wrong WAN?Steve
-
@stephenw10 yes lagg0.3081 and lagg0.3082 are my two WANs.
To note: real IPs and ports is changed here to privacy.
About pcap - send by email.
In short - not see traffic on TIER1 while trying connect to TIER2 NATed port, but see strange TCP re-transmission. Note: for this rules NAT reflection disabled to simplify all scheme, in any case changing reflection on rule - do not change anything.
-
Replied on PM. But new need a pcap on the tier1 WAN while connecting via the tier2 WANB to verify replies are being sent that way rather than dropped for some reason.
You gateway groups are not being populated in the ruleset. The only reason that should ever happen normally is if you have not set
Skip rules when gateway is downand all the gateways were down. Which clearly isn't the case here.
You are not policy routing anything via those so it won't affect anything directly but could indicate the gateways have some odd setting.Steve

Yes, this isn't the case. I not see any bit of traffic when dump WAN TIER1 while trying connect to WAN TIER2. Can it be due promiscuous mode isn't enabled? I doesn't think so.

Hi, @stephenw10 I done full reinstall from scratch to 2.4.5_p1 on ssd and updated to 2.5.0.a.20201127.0650 and restored from backup - still same issue with:
GWWANGROUP = " " GWWANGROUP6 = " "I also found in logs:
Jan 5 00:16:21 php-fpm 97323 /rc.filter_configure_sync: An error occurred while trying to find the interface got `MyMainIPv6GWIP`. The rule has not been added. Jan 5 00:16:21 php-fpm 97323 /rc.filter_configure_sync: An error occurred while trying to find the interface got `MyMainIPv4GWIP`. The rule has not been added.Maybe this root case why I have this?
Also want to note: when I restore from backup - if I used console\terminal it always "merges" in strange way my xg7100u switch configs and break everything, due to this reinstall takes for me crazy long and was successful only on second time. It will be cool if pfsense on terminal also ask about preserving switch conf or not.
-
@stephenw10 can you please help with this issue? It still in place. Also I doesn't receive any updates on my development 2.5 pfsense even that comes on 2.4.5_p1 stable (on another xg7100u).

Hi,
after upgrading to 2.5.1 my port forwards only works for active wan. is it related to this bug?
any solution? -
@saeed you need update to latest version and it will fix nat, but not NPt for ipv6.

it's a production server and already updated to 2.5.1
you mean update to latest development snapshot? -

@saeed I have pfsense plus so for me firmware is 21.02.2. For CE, yes - it still unresolved.
-
Despite extensive testing before release it's still possible to hit this in 2.5.1 CE but not as far as we know in 21.02.2 (Plus). Though it's unclear what the difference there is.
