#19477: NAT loopback is not configured when wan interface named different
------------------------------------------------+--------------------------
Reporter: c.mandel@… | Owner: developers
Type: defect | Status: new
Priority: normal | Milestone:
Component: base system | Version: Backfire
Keywords: uci, luci, configuration, firewall | 10.03.1
------------------------------------------------+--------------------------
The script
{{{
/etc/hotplug.d/firewall/10-nat-reflection
}}}
requires the wan interface to be called 'wan', otherwise the reflection
rules will not be generated. At least if only one interface is in the wan
zone the name should be determined dynamically. Since the correct rules
may be hard to figure out automatically for multiple wan ports, at least
in luci a warning should be issued if the situation is not unambiguous.
For me, the problem occurred when I introduced a second interface to make
the transition between providers smooth. Since the old interface wan was
not assigned to a hardware interface, it was not obvious that the reason
for not creating the rules was the interface name. (To find out that the
rules are not generated took me already 1 day ;-) Maybe the failing of the
script should be reported back to luci ...)
