DNS Rule issues
-
I have my own DNS servers, they answer for internal and external lookups, externally the Domain register sends the request via the static IPs and it resolves internally to the dns server port 53. The problem is the rule that is working is any wan port 53 to Lan IP of DNS server. I tried to change the rule that the external static IP points internal server IP on port 53. This didn't work at all no traffic was coming in. I have to set the wan side to any, instead of the static IP. I was hoping to forward dns based on the WAN IP to the specific internal IP.
Thanks

Can you show the specific rules that do and do not work, both NAT (port forward or 1:1) and firewall rules?
The source on WAN rules (and port forward rules) is the remote clients, not the public address on your side. It sounds like that's what you changed, and that won't work to accomplish what you're attempting. But if you show us what you've got and tell us a bit more about what you're trying to do, we might be able to come up with something to help.

^ yeah your source on your nat and firewall rule would be ANY, your dest would be your wan addess on a forward. If you try and lock down the source then that traffic would have to be coming from that IP. I don't know how you would know what that is if your serving up dns to the public from this.
As mentioned post your rules and nats, and we can see what your doing wrong.
