Hi! I want to configure a port forwarding rule to a reserved IP (Which is assigned as a virtual IP across several VMs). Using the Cloudstack load balancer is not what I want, as it appears as the source of every request in the application log files.
I have excluded a range of reserved IPs from the Network as described in http://cloudstack.apache.org/docs/en-US/Apache_CloudStack/4.2.0/html/Admin_Guide/reserved-ip-addresses-non-csvms.html (I use Cloudstack 4.4.1, but the documentation appears to be still valid). This IP is not "known" to Cloudstack, as it is not assigned to any VM. So I cannot choose "a VM to forward to", but I need to enter the IP directly. Via GUI this is not possible. I tried it via Cloud Monkey: > create portforwardingrule ipaddressid=589d1160-5618-452f-a78c-dfd6dbec5fb9 > networkid=1b3893a0-367b-4805-974b-72ae735680fa privateport=8088 > privateendport=8088 publicport=18088 publicendport=18088 protocol=tcp > vmguestip=192.168.101.10 Missing arguments: virtualmachineid Faking it by adding some innocent VM's UUID obviously does not work: > create portforwardingrule ipaddressid=589d1160-5618-452f-a78c-dfd6dbec5fb9 > networkid=1b3893a0-367b-4805-974b-72ae735680fa privateport=8088 > privateendport=8088 publicport=18088 publicendport=18088 protocol=tcp > vmguestip=192.168.101.10 virtualmachineid=b50e75ed-92ea-44cd-b7c2-f5ede5aa4c94 Error: IP Address is not in the VM nic's network So I am stuck here... Any hint on how to make the port forwarding happen? Thanks, Martin
