Bug #403

bug in /etc/hotplug.d/firewall/10-nat-reflection breaks "NAT loopback"

Description

Since the interface naming convention in CeroWrt defines the interfaces based on their class e.g. ‘ge00’ instead of ‘wan’, the default NAT reflection helper script fails to function. There is a simple fix (thanks to jow who helped me discover this on #bufferbloat)

edit the nat-reflection script:

vi /etc/hotplug.d/firewall/10-nat-reflection

replace the first two occurences of “wan” with “ge00”
save & exit, then issue:

ifup ge00

I tested this on my wndr3800 running 3.3.8-11 and it worked. Didn’t do extensive testing but I tested several DNAT port-forwards from both inside & outside of the NAT to services hosted on the se00 (lan) side and everything seemed to work as expected.
