another blooming NAT question

timdeadman1
Level 1
Level 1

So the scenario is that we have an exchange server with one leg on the Inside interface (my DMZ) and I want to NAT that to one of my public range of addresses.  These are nnn.nn.n.232/29.  The ISP has .233, the ASA outside interface is .234 and I want to use .235 as the static NAT to xxx.xx.199.10 (out inside DMZ network).

 

I have put the following config on:

I can't seem to get it working even though the packet tracer says it should work.  Here is the "sh xlate" output.

any ideas really really appreciated.

Do you just want to present your internal address as a public IP to the outside ?

If so -

object network <name>

host <private IP>

nat (inside,outside) static <public IP>

Jon

Thanks for looking Jon,  actually, I built it using ASDM (I know, call myself an engineer) and I just set up a static NAT from an address on the inside interface to an address in the range that the ISP assigned to us.  The outside (public) address is not pingable but I changed my outside interface to the address I want to NAT just to see if it was a routing issue and then I can ping the public address from the WWW.  I had to change it back to allow outgoing access from my other users (they PAT to the interface address (.234) and that side all works.

 

Do I need to NAT to a physical interface address? I thought I could just create a network object and NAT to that?

No, you should be able to use an IP from the public range that is not actually assigned to the interface.

When you changed to the interface i suspect you were actually just pinging the outside interface ie. not the actual server.

You have acls applied to both the inside and outside interfaces. So you need to -

1) allow ICMP to the real IP in the acl applied to the outside interface

and

2) you can either -

a) allow the ICMP replies in your inside acl

or

b) turn on ICMP inspection. Note ICMP inspection generally is done for returning packets from a ping that was started from the inside but i suspect it should also work the other way as well.

Jon

 

Thanks John,

 

I won't be able to look at this until Thursday now as I am at another customer for the next few days,  I have turn on ICMP via ASDL so assume it should work.  I did notice on my "sh xlate" results this.....

"NAT from outside:0.0.0.0/0 to any:0.0.0.0/0
    flags sIT idle 0:11:24 timeout 0:00:00"

though I don't remember adding that rule, I wonder if this is masking my rule?

 

Plan of attack for Thursday is to remove my rule and start again as an outbound rule but with the "both ways" enabled.
