  • 1.  Static/bidirectional NAT is being overridden by egress NAT?

    I'm stuck on understanding why a set of static NAT entries appear to be taking effect for inbound traffic, but for outbound the traffic is instead being NATted using the egress interface. What's very odd about this is it's working in one routing instance but not in the other.

    Story is this: I'm in the process of swinging from one ISP to another. I have the 2nd (new) ISP egress interface on an additional routing instance, and I'm using filters to send traffic out through that instance as I swing the internal hosts/subnets.

    Once we've gracefully swung services over, I'll return to a single routing instance, but for now this has to get me through the cutover.

    Below is a very simplified configuration set showing the relevant entries.

    In this configuration, default routing instance is ISP1. Two internal hosts are modeled, each with their corresponding static nat and proxy-arp entries.

    I'm using a filter on ingress traffic on the TRUST interface to determine whether to send that traffic out through ISP1 or ISP2 based on source IP.

    Without the filter in place, both the web host on 192.168.1.10 and the FTP host on 192.168.1.11 are static mapped bidirectionally to their external IP (respectively, 1.1.1.10 and 1.1.1.11) on ISP1. Using a public service such as "whatismyip.com" confirms each host is being NATted with their static entry, and not the egress interface of 1.1.1.9.

    When the filter is in place it should send traffic from web host 192.168.1.10 out through the 2nd routing instance and ISP2. It should get a static public NAT address of 2.2.2.10. 

    INSTEAD, this host is being seen as the egress NAT of 2.2.2.9?

    From you description the reverse static nat is not being correctly seen before the source nat general rule.  This would be a bug if happening.

    SRX Nat flow

    A possible work around would be to add a statement to the source nat rule before the nat all to interface that would exclude nat for the specific ip addresses used in static nat.

    set security nat source rule-set SR_SET_2 rule rule4 match source-address 10.150.45.0/24
    set security nat source rule-set SR_SET_2 rule rule4 then source-nat off

    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP1 from zone Trust
    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP1 to zone ISP1


    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP1 rule internal-to-ISP1 match source-address 192.168.1.10/32
    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP1 rule internal-to-ISP1 match source-address 192.168.1.11/32
    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP1 rule internal-to-ISP1 then source-nat off


    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP1 rule internal-to-ISP1 match source-address 0.0.0.0/0
    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP1 rule internal-to-ISP1 match destination-address 0.0.0.0/0
    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP1 rule internal-to-ISP1 then source-nat interface


    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP2 from zone Trust
    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP2 to zone ISP2

    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP2 rule internal-to-ISP2 match source-address 192.168.1.10/32
    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP2 rule internal-to-ISP2 match source-address 192.168.1.11/32
    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP2 rule internal-to-ISP2 then source-nat off


    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP2 rule internal-to-ISP2 match source-address 0.0.0.0/0
    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP2 rule internal-to-ISP2 match destination-address 0.0.0.0/0
    set security nat source rule-set internal-to-ISP2 rule internal-to-ISP2 then source-nat interface

    Another possible work around is to reverse the direction the static nat rule is created from the internal zone to the isp zone.  I notice that the example is show this way rather than from internet zone to internal zone.  Perhaps that is why the bug is kicking in.

    Documentation example.
