say I want to have multiple ip's on the wan interface so that I can forward http/https for one public ip to a private ip behind the firewall and smtp/imap on a different public ip to a another private ip behind the firewall. I thought this was what the virtual ip functionality is for.
I added a virtual ip using the WAN interface (using proxy arp cuz it was the default) and used a public ip thats available on the same subnet that the firewall's wan ip is on and forwarded port 80 to the private ip of my server's port 80. ( I've got outbound nat enabled for the time being for this private subnet and all the machines, including the server, on the private subnet can get to the internet just fine. ) I checked the 'auto add firewall rule' checkbox and clicked save. Everything looks cool but when I attempt to access that ip on port 80 from a remote internet site I don't get anywhere. Was this not the procedure I was looking for? Do I instead have to create an 'interface' for each public ip and use the same ethernet device for each?
