Trunk 802.1q - VLAN over Transparent mode

Hi Guys,

Attached is existing network environment. Our objective is to replace current transparent mode with Foritgate 92D, However. we encounter issue with external traffic cant reach server.

 

Appreciate if anyone can assist or guide on troubleshooting. Thanks

 

Existing Configuration:

[ol]
  • Customer is hosting their server at ISP Data centre with public IP range access provided by ISP.
  • Incoming traffic flow is below[/ol]

    -External traffic accessing public server route by Telekom switch to their internal Cisco L3 switch which control by VLAN 1 (Management VLAN), 222,223,224,225 (Server VLAN)

    -Cisco switch will pass through external traffic to  transparent Juniper firewall for granular control on port by connected using trunk port allow only VLAN1 (Attached is Juniper configuration)

    -Once traffic filter by Juniper, it will pass through another Cisco L2 switch  to their destination server using same trunk port VLAN1.

     

    Deployment Steps & issue encounter::

    [ol]
  • Fortigate is configured as Transparent mode with configuration below.[/ol]

    -IP Address 10.10.216.150 & GW 10.10.216.1

    -Configure pairing port for “Internal & WAN1”

    -Create 1 firewall rule as “ANY-ANY”

            2.    Shutdown interface connection for Juniper and disable shutdown for Fortigate port at Cisco L3 switch

            3.    Internal communication between server and Fortigate didn’t having issue except for external traffic going internal and external.

            4.    Ping server internal IP (Physical) and Public IP(VM) and vice versa including access Fortigate GUI, SSH from server.

            5.    Configured VLAN interface with “forward-domain” enable on each VLAN interface with same result, failed to access server from external and internal using public IP address

            4.    Issue still occurred even after applied setting based on Fortigate KB http://kb.fortinet.com/kb/documentLink.do?externalID=FD30083
