Port to application mapping on asa

[alkabeer80]

Hi,

i have cisco asa 8.4, i am using simple topology on gns3:

R1  ----------------------------------(inisde) ASA (outside) ------------------------------ R2

192.168.1.1               192.168.1.2           192.168.2.2                           192.168.2.1 

I have enabled http on R1, telnet from R2 to R1 (telnet 192.168.1.1 80) , it work.

Now i want to configure ASA to port map 80 to 8080,  telnet from R2 to R1 ( telnet 192.168.1.1 8080) , how can i do it ?

Thankssss

Hi,

This depends on your software level used. The NAT configuration format is different for software levels 8.2 (and below) compared to levels 8.3 (and above)

Here is an example of both

Software 8.2 and below

static (inside,outside) tcp 192.168.1.1 8080 192.168.1.1 80 netmask 255.255.255.255

access-list permit tcp any host 192.168.1.1 8080

Software 8.3 and above

object network R1

host 192.168.1.1

nat (inside,outside) static 192.168.1.1 service tcp 80 8080

access-list permit tcp any object R1 eq 80

Hope this helps

Let me know if it works for you. If not then will have to look more into the configuration.

Hi,

It did not work, i tried to write same command, it did not accept

ciscoasa# sh ver

Cisco Adaptive Security Appliance Software Version 8.4(2)

Compiled on Wed 15-Jun-11 18:17 by builders
System image file is "Unknown, monitor mode tftp booted image"
Config file at boot was "startup-config"

object service 80

service tcp destination eq www

object service 8080

service tcp source eq 8080

object network R1

host 192.168.2.1

ciscoasa(config)# nat (inside,ouside) source static ?

configure mode commands/options:
  WORD  Specify object or object-group name for real source
  any   Abbreviation for source address and mask of 0.0.0.0

ciscoasa(config)# nat (inside,ouside) source static R1 ?

configure mode commands/options:
  WORD       Specify object or object-group name for mapped source
  interface  Specify interface NAT

how to write it ?

Hi,

You did not enter the commands I suggested.

The NAT configuration should be

object network R1

host 192.168.1.1

nat (inside,outside) static 192.168.1.1 service tcp 80 8080

You are trying to add the "nat" configuration in the global configuration space and not under the "object network R1"

So enter these in order wihtout entering any other command in between

object network R1

host 192.168.1.1

nat (inside,outside) static 192.168.1.1 service tcp 80 8080

The first one will create the "object" and move under its configuration space. The next one will add the "host" address under the "object". The last command will add the actual "nat" command under the "object" we created

Then you need the ACL to allow the traffic as described in my first reply. Naturally you will have to use an ACL that is attached with the "access-group" to your "outside" interface

Hi, i manage to write command, but i am getting

R1#telnet 192.168.1.1 8080

Trying 192.168.1.1, 8080 ...

% Connection refused by remote host

[Jouni Forss]

Hi,

Post your ACL configuration

show run access-list

show run access-group

If you have no ACL configured you could add

access-list OUTSIDE-IN permit tcp any object R1 eq 80

access-group OUTSIDE-IN in interface outside

But I presume you have an existing ACL attached to interface "outside" like in my above example so you could use that ACL to allow what I have allowed above.

Let me know if it works. Otherwise post the configurations so I can check what is needed

hi,

ciscoasa(config)#  sh run access-list
access-list l extended permit tcp any object R1 eq www
access-list l extended permit ip any any

ciscoasa# sh run access-group
access-group l in interface ouside

Thanks for all your help

Hi,

The connection should work if you are connecting from R2 to R1 with the destination IP 192.168.1.1 and port TCP/8080. Or that is how I understood the original request below

Now i want to configure ASA to port map 80 to 8080,  telnet from R2 to R1 ( telnet 192.168.1.1 8080) , how can i do it ?

Your above example seems to be you connecting from the R1 to itself?

R1#telnet 192.168.1.1 8080
Trying 192.168.1.1, 8080 ...
% Connection refused by remote host

So test this from R2

Hi,

The logs dont match your original posts topology at all.

The log says R1 192.168.1.1 is located "outside" and the R2 192.168.2.1 is located "inside"?

Can you share the complete firewall configuration

Actually seems your other interface is called "ouside" and not "outside".

Hi,

There is different IP address used in the NAT configuration? The IP address of R2 even though you wanted to do the NAT for R1 IP address 192.168.1.1 to my understanding so that R2 could connec to 192.168.1.1 port TCP/8080 to reach the actual port TCP/80 on the R1 192.168.1.1?

If so then you would need to issue these commands which I suggested originally

object network R1

host 192.168.1.1

nat (inside,outside) static 192.168.1.1 service tcp 80 8080

thx Jouni,

can u share good tutorial for such config ?
