Ok, clearly I wasn't clear. The 2Wire does port forward from the 68.251.1.1 to 192.168.1.99 (its internal address is 192.168.1.254/24). A similar port forward was working before installing EFW so, I pretty sure that I have it configured correctly. I'm guessing here that due to the translation done by the 2wire, that the "target" address will now be 192.168.1.99.
I'm thinking of backing out to EFW 2.2, I hear that it is much easier to configure. -----Original Message----- From: Matthew W.

You say that your public IP is 68.251.1.1 (or something else similar). I'm guessing that this is what your WAN interface on your 2Wire DSL modem is set to. This 2Wire modem then has an internal interface of 192.168.1.99? Unless you are able to tell your 2wire to do port forwarding itself, it will never pass traffic into the 192.168.1.0 network. Since it can't pass the data to the Endian Firewall, the Endian Firewall wouldn't be able to send it on to your SBS server. Now, if you could acomplish the forwarding by the 2Wire, then you would just have to create a Firewall Nat rule to forward the same appropriate traffic in to 10.99.1.1. To do that in 2.3, I go to Firewall -> Port forwarding / NAT -> Destination NAT -> Add a new destination NAT rule. I hope that helps. --Matt Ross Ephrata School District ----- Original Message ----- From: Thomas Goodson [mailto:thomas.good...@omega-link.com] To: efw-user@lists.sourceforge.net Sent: Thu, 14 Jan 2010 23:20:38 -0800 Subject: Re: [Efw-user] How to configure a basic "Port forward" in EFW 2.3 > That chain left me more confused than I was before. > > > > My environment: public static ip: 68.251.1.1 (not the actual address, > but it’ll do for this example) > > The public static IP is routed by a 2Wire DSL Modem/router to > 192.168.1.99 (I have no control over this part of the process) > > My EFW Box is setting with its RED interface at 192.168.1.99 and green > at 10.99.1.254. > > I have an SBS box at 10.99.1.1.
