Disguising a device behind 1:1 NAT
-
In the following diagram... :
(...) I'd like to disguise HOST's real IP address from the rest of the network downstream but I'm not sure which is the right interface to select in the 1:1 settings. I think it's
if0but it doesn't connect directly to the internal or external IP address, does it matter?The documentation says to select "The interface where the 1:1 NAT translation will take place, typically a WAN type interface." This is it, right??
Thanks.
Missing something? Word endings, maybe? I included a free puzzle in this msg if you solv--okay, I'm lying. It's dyslexia, makes me do that, sorry! Just finish the word; they're rarely misspelled, just incomplete. Yeah-yeah-I know. Same thing.

It worked!
Except... Now
HOSTwasn't able to access the Internet, I guess because it's natted too. I added rules to give it access which made me realize I don't know which internal inbound interface (if1orif2) would accept the traffic to NAT it to the WAN one so I added rules in both but still no access.At least I got the answer to my question. :)

For what purpose? Just at a loss to why anyone would want to do this?
