NAT with ipnat on FreeBSD

Page history last edited by trunasuci 15 years ago

 

Well..

Just make the topics easy....

How to make your FreeBSD ( or NetBSD but u need to fix the NIC name and /etc/rc.conf based on NetBSD-style ) as router? How?

 

 

 

This is my FreeBSD gateway with ipnat..

 

 

 

 

step 1- Install FreeBSD. Any version will do..

 

 

step 2- Done? Then edit /etc/rc.conf add something like this:

 

ipnat_enable="YES"

ipnat_program="/sbin/ipnat"

ipnat_rules="/etc/ipnat.rules"

 

 

 

 

step 3- Create your rules files in /etc ( as stated here it's ipnat.rules, but u can named it anything u like )...

check your NIC ip, especially facing your network and will be acting as gateway ip...

 

trunasuci# ifconfig

xl0: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1492

        options=9<RXCSUM,VLAN_MTU>

        ether XXXXXX

        inet 0.0.0.0 netmask 0xff000000 broadcast 0.255.255.255

        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX <full-duplex>)

        status: active

xl1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500

        options=9<RXCSUM,VLAN_MTU>

        ether XXXXXX

        inet 10.0.0.200 netmask 0xffffff00 broadcast 10.0.0.255

        media: Ethernet autoselect (100baseTX)

        status: active

plip0: flags=108810<POINTOPOINT,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,NEEDSGIANT> metric 0 mtu 1500

lo0: flags=8049<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 16384

        inet6 fe80::1%lo0 prefixlen 64 scopeid 0x4

        inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128

        inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 0xff000000

tun0: flags=8051<UP,POINTOPOINT,RUNNING,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1492

        inet 60.48.XX.XX --> 219.93.218.177 netmask 0xffffffff

        Opened by PID 1251

 

 

 

 

example your NIC facing your network and will become gateway is xl1, then your ipnat.rules file should be like this:

map xl1 10.0.0.0/24 -> 0/32

 

then SAVE!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

step 4-

run your ipnat.. mine always flush and run ipnat, pointing to the rules files

 

 

trunasuci# ipnat -FC && ipnat -f /etc/ipnat.rules

2 entries flushed from NAT table

4 entries flushed from NAT list

 

 

trunasuci# ipnat -l

List of active MAP/Redirect filters:

map xl1 10.0.0.0/24 -> 0.0.0.0/32

 

so it's run!

 

on your client pc/box just set this ip of xl1 as gateway ( in this case it's 10.0.0.200 )

 

walla! it runs!!

 

 

 

 

test from NetBSD as client/server behind the FreeBSD gateway:

 

netbsd# nslookup www.yahoo.com

Server:         61.6.32.162

Address:        61.6.32.162#53

Non-authoritative answer:

www.yahoo.com   canonical name = www.wa1.b.yahoo.com.

www.wa1.b.yahoo.com     canonical name = www-real.wa1.b.yahoo.com.

Name:   www-real.wa1.b.yahoo.com

Address: 209.191.93.52

netbsd# uname -a
