VIP - Redirect NTP traffic

https · ‎04-29-2021

Hi,

I'd like to forward whole NTP traffic to my NTP server.

I'd like to use VIP where source IP is in range from 0.0.0.0-239.255.255.255 and do portmapping 123-123 (use service NTP).

set type load-balance set service "NTP" set extip 0.0.0.0-239.255.255.255 set mappedip "10.20.68.192-20.121.12.194" set arp-reply disable set portforward enable set mappedport 123

And the problem is if any other VIP exists. For example:

set extip 10.100.200.3 set mappedip "10.20.3.35" set extintf "any"

I receive information that NTP is overlapping another VIP but if i use extip from 0.0.0.0 to 10.100.200.2 it works like a charm.

Do you have any idea how to configure this VIP to be working with extip "any"?

You have a few choices all are nasty

1st have you tried with the src-ip left as-is 0.0.0.0 ?

config firewall vip

edit "NTP"

set mappedip "10.10.1.112"

set extintf "wan1"

set portforward enable

set extport 123

set mappedport 123

2nd you can't do what your asking directly since you have overlap of ext-srcs and the mapped. if you think about it the mappedip is in the src-range

3rd , your next option is. you have to out-play the fortigate so speak, since any local assigned address used will overlap in the src-range. You can try the following as a guide.

e.g a workaround is to eliminate the local address by breaking up the src-range and applying multiple vips

config firewall vip

edit "test-vip1"

set uuid 88b9508a-a92e-51eb-c370-f85b1c740d8a

set type load-balance

set extip 0.0.0.0-9.255.255.255

set mappedip "10.0.1.112"

set extintf "wan1"

set portforward enable

set extport 999

set mappedport 999

next

edit "test-vip2"

set uuid b40364f6-a92e-51eb-853d-7321802aaa2d

set type load-balance

set extip 11.0.0.0-192.167.255.2255

set mappedip "10.0.1.112"

set extintf "wan1"

set portforward enable

set extport 999

set mappedport 999

next

edit "test-vip3"

set uuid b40364f6-a92e-51eb-853d-7321802aaa2d

set type load-balance

set extip 192.169.0.0-239.255.255.255

set mappedip "10.0.1.112"

set extintf "wan1"

set portforward enable

set extport 999

set mappedport 999

next

and so on

You have to poke hole for all interfaces address , all static routes address, all vpns end-points, etc........that you have, and ip address assigned on the fortigate.

Like I said, not a clean approach but very a nasty approach

if you come across a better way, please post what you ultimately do, but the above is what we did with mixed results. We have a test lab and had reasons for doing the above. I would not recommend the above in a production env. A proper SLB would be best suited.

I think using the 0.0.0.0 vip is the best approach but let us know if it works

In a perfect world (in other integrations :D ) it is done by one2one vip for each servicwe.

In this case i had to do this trick.

0.0.0.0/0 didn't work. I had to use elimination.

Thank you Ken
