<![CDATA[PureNAT / NAT + Proxy - Am i doing it right?]]>I have two WAN connections with two WAN groups configured in opposite failover. i.e. WAN1 - Tier 1 / WAN2 - Tier 2 and WAN2 - Tier 1 / WAN1 - Tier 2

To create an quasi balance, i direct some vlans to grp1 and others to grp2.
In any event, so long as there is one wan, all services should work.
I do the same thing with a VPN setup on top.

I use the NAT + Proxy, as i understood I can't use PureNAT with the above setup as the WAN may not be up with the filters load, and the filters change if there is a failover.

i see a lot of xinetd readjusting service messages.

Just wanted to check, i am using the correct NAT type.

  1. i tried global settings to disabled, but system was good.

    • maybe because i have redirects for dns, ntp

  2. i set global settings to PureNat and rule redirect settings to Disabled

  3. Port Forward settings to NAT+Proxy

seems to be working.
