2 TopicsCGNAT with DS-lite and LSN
Hey, so we have setup DS-Lite with CGNAT according to this in our lab: https://techdocs.f5.com/kb/en-us/products/big-ip_ltm/manuals/product/cgn-implementations-11-5-0/14.html Running version 17.1.1.1. Interface setup: ipv4.selfip 192.168.245.245/24(external if, ipv4.vlan) ipv6_INET-selfip 2001:2040:c000:1:f5f5:f5f5:f5f5:f5f5/64(client facing, ip6_INET.vlan) ds.selfip 192.0.0.1/24( ds-tunnel) CGNAT VS created according to above tech-doc. LSN- Pool created with: NAPT Persistance: Address Port Persistance Timeout: 30 (for testing) Inbound Connections: Automatic ICMP Echo: enabled Egress interfaces: ipv4.vlan Members list: 172.16.0.4/30 DS-tunnel created with: Profile dslite Local Address: same as ipv6_INET-selfip Remote Address Any The NAT-process works fine, the traffic comes in and gets NAT:ed to the pool (i.e. 172.16.0.4). The traffic also reaches the target, in this case 192.168.245.240. This endpoint in turn has a return-route for traffic back to the F5 for the 172.16.0.4/30 network. So it responds to the traffic, however here is where we hit the curb. The F5 simply resets the traffic once recieving the syn ack, "internal error sending packet to peer". So it's like it has forgotten the fact that it did the NAT. However when verifying "tmsh show sys connection all-properties" we can see both the IPv6 and IPv4 connections. Does anyone have any tips and tricks for this? Are we missing something? /Ted28Views0likes0CommentsCGNAT and IP forwarding Simultaneously for exception flows
I have scenario according to the diagram using VIPRIOM 2400 platform as CGNAT solution. I'm using CGNAT for translating our clients(SRC: 100.64.0.0/10) for Internet access. In our regular scenario F5 box translate client address for both Internet access and our internal servers. Now we have a situation where we need our clients connected to an internal web-server(172.16.1.1) with their actual IP address(100.64.0.0/10)). for this purpose I created two 'IP forwarding' matching web-server IP address in each direction. the point is I've Created CGNAT virtual server for Internet access and LTM Virtual server for matching traffic to/from local web server. Clients Internet access which works without any problem. but It seems web-server virtual server doesn't match with any traffic. ltm virtual CGNAT-BRAS--ACCESS-01 { description CGNAT-BRAS--ACCESS-01 destination 0.0.0.0%101:any mask any profiles { CGNAT-L4 { } } source 100.64.0.0%101/10 source-address-translation { pool CGNAT-ACCESS-01 type lsn } translate-address disabled translate-port disabled vlans { VLAN-40 } vlans-enabled vs-index 26 } ltm profile fastl4 CGNAT-L4 { app-service none defaults-from fastL4 loose-close enabled loose-initialization enabled reassemble-fragments enabled reset-on-timeout disabled } ltm virtual local-web-forwarding-client-side { destination 172.16.1.1%101:any l2-forward mask 255.255.255.255 profiles { Forwarding_VS { } } source 100.64.0.0%101/10 translate-address enabled translate-port disabled vlans { VLAN-40 } vlans-enabled vs-index 46 } ltm virtual local-web-forwarding-network-side { destination 100.64.0.0%101:any ip-forward mask 255.192.0.0 profiles { Forwarding_VS { } } source 172.16.1.1%101/32 translate-address disabled translate-port disabled vlans { VLAN-41 } vlans-enabled vs-index 47 } ltm profile fastl4 Forwarding_VS { app-service none defaults-from fastL4 idle-timeout 300 loose-initialization enabled reset-on-timeout disabled }480Views0likes0Comments
