Hi,
Assistance with a network configuration. We have an application on a local server (IIS) and need access to it from the external network:
I try the below steps with no luck, can't access it from an external network
* DDNS:
* On Firewall:
1- Configure Virtual IPs (External IP address/range: 0.0.0.0, Mapped IP address/range: LAN IP)
Port Forwarding Protocol (TCP), External service port & Map to port (80)
2- Create Policy
Additionally, configure Windows firewall inbound and outbound for port 80
Modem: FortiWiFi 30E
Firmware: v6.2.15 build1378 (GA)
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @ATOON.,
Please run the following debugs and test connection:
di deb disable
di deb res
diagnose debug flow filter clear
di deb flow filter addr <source IP>
di deb flow filter port 80
diagnose debug flow show function-name enable
di deb flow show iprope en
diagnose debug console timestamp enable
diagnose debug flow trace start 9999
diagnose debug enable
Regards,
You may try to run a packet capture so that we may determine if the packets are reaching the FortiGate from your WAN interface.
I would recommend to do the packet capture using your client public IP address that is reaching the VIP.
You may follow the command below.
If you are accessing port 80:
diag sniff packet "host <client-public-ip-address> and port 80" 4 0 l
You may also check the documentation below in regards for packet capture.
