 1 edit | [Wired] RV016 - One to One NAT Dilemma I need help about this....
Our ISP has given us 5 IP Address.
203.x.1.1 203.x.1.2 203.x.1.3 203.x.1.4 203.x.0.1
The 203.x.0.1 is locked (host.resolve) for our Web Server 192.168.1.201. I have imputed a Static IP Address in the following order:
WAN1 = 203.x.1.1 WAN2 = 203.x.1.2 WAN3 = 203.x.1.3 WAN4 = 203.x.1.4 WAN5 = 203.x.0.1
I went to disable DHCP and done a portforward HTTP 80 for our webserver 192.168.1.201. Now, I went to One to One NAT and add the following:
192.168.1.201~201 => 203.x.0.1~1
Ok..I think its working fine but I'm puzzled on what it is written on the manual version 2 (chapter 4 page 18)....
"Public Range Begin Enter the starting IP address of the public IP address range. This IP address is provided by the ISP. (Do not include the Routers WAN IP Address.)"
What does the bold highlighted message means? Is it the 192.168.1.1? Or should I take out or delete WAN5 to my setup and retain WAN1-WAN4? Which WAN from WAN1 to WAN5?
Looking at the log summary of WAN5 its seems that its taking the load balancing my bandwidth. It should be only WAN1-WAN4 while WAN5 is dedicated to the webserver. Also, looking at WAN1 it has the lowest bandwidth. Is WAN1 & WAN5 somehow exchanged? Is this a bug?

Thank you in advance for any input. |

 3 edits | I have an RV082, and only use 2 IPs. However, I believe the setup is the same.
The 192.168.1.201~201 => 203.x.0.1~1 is correct.
This means that 192.168.1.201 will ONLY use the WAN IP of 203.x.0.1.
The "Do not include the Router's WAN IP Address" portion simply means that you cannot use One-to-One NAT for the MAIN WAN1 Interface IP (203.x.1.1).
You cannot use the MAIN WAN1 Interface IP for a One-to-One NAT, and also have it assigned to be the WAN1 Interface for a host or a set of hosts.
For example:
If you want 192.168.1.202-225 to run off WAN2 (or 203.x.1.2), you would setup One-to-One NAT for 192.168.202~225 and then use 203.x.1.2~2. This is fine.
You cannot use One-to-One NAT for 192.168.1.202~225 => 203.x.1.1 assuming WAN1 is 203.x.1.1 (since by default VLAN1 is passed through the WAN1 interface...it defeats the purpose). This will not work.
Does this help / make sense?
Edited for grammar and to further make sense |

 | I see...thanks a for the explanation about 1 to 1 NAT which is somehow block in using WAN1.
I've tried that putting the 203.x.0.1 in WAN1 and do a 1 to 1 NAT 192.168.1.201~201 => 203.x.0.1~1 and didn't work at all.
I think I can live with their logs...
Thank you very much. |

You cannot use the IP Address 203.x.0.1 in WAN1 and then also use that address for One-to-One NAT on 192.168.1.201~201. You CANNOT specify the WAN1 IP Address in a One-to-One NAT setup. |
