The virtual IP is overlapped with another VIP entry

Can someone help me regarding VIPs? 

Here's my configuration of the VIP:

 

edit test

set extip 124.x.x.10

set extintf wan2

set portforward enable 

set mappedip 192.168.16.206

set extport 3389

set mappedport 3389

next 

 

After this when I will configure another VIP using the same extip.

edit test

set extip 124.x.x.10

set extintf wan2

set mappedip 192.168.16.205

next 

 

The error will be "The virtual IP is overlapped with another VIP entry-test. object check operator error, -5, discard the setting

Command fail. Return code 1

 

Please advise. Thanks

Hello, you need to set set extport and mappedport

sssshhhh

even if i try to put the extport and mappedport it still has the same error. I think its because its the same extip?

No, you can forward more that 1 port with the same extip, but you need to specify extport & mappedport. 

 

How looks your firewall rule?

the first firewall rule is this:

edit test set extip 124.x.x.10 set extintf wan2 set portforward enable  set mappedip 192.168.16.206 set extport 3389 set mappedport 3389 next 

 

second is this

edit test set extip 124.x.x.10 set extintf wan2 set portforward enable  set mappedip 192.168.16.205 set extport 3389 set mappedport 6600 next 

 

same extip

You have an error. You can not have the same extport with the same extip. It should look like this :

 

edit test set extip 124.x.x.10 set extintf wan2 set portforward enable  set mappedip 192.168.16.206 set extport 3389 set mappedport 3389 next    second is this edit test2 set extip 124.x.x.10 set extintf wan2 set portforward enable  set mappedip 192.168.16.205 set extport 6600 set mappedport 3389 next

Ok but if I have to statically map an ip to the same extip? It does not work it says overlapping ip.
