Virtual IP

[fortinetlisroland]

hello I have created a Virtual IP to map to an inside private IP Address

the Virtual IP is spare IP address from the RIPE subnet allocated 

x.x.x.84 --

I have configured a security rule to allow traffic to this IP

there are no matches in the packet capture & I cannot see the .84 in the arp address of the vdom

Q has anyone come across this issue before ?

Hello

In the firewall rule you allow traffic to the VIP object, not to the IP object.

Also in the VIP object, ensure the ARP reply is enabled.

config firewall vip
  edit VIP1
    set arp-reply enable
  next
end

Hope it helps.

first many thanks all the help

please see cli output that might clarify 

itsprdtnfcfw101 (vip) # show
config firewall vip
edit "Assurenet_122_Management"
set uuid 7f56b1a4-3968-51ef-460d-5158eca378f4
set service "ALL_TCP"
set extip 1.1.1.84
set mappedip "10.123.12.2"
set extintf "any"
next

If your FGT's wan interface IP is another IP in the same subnet like x.x.x.81 in x.x.x.80/29, your ISP wouldn't deliver packets destined to x.x.x.84/29 to the MAC address on your FGT's wan interface. Only packets destined to x.x.x.81 are delivered to your FGT's interface. The ISP would expect ARP reply back from a different MAC address (generally a different device).

Only in case if your FGT's wan interface IP is from a different subnet like a /30 then the /29 subnet is routed over the interface subnet as "additional IPs/subnet", your FGT would receive all packets destined to all 8 IP addresses within the /29 subnet.
