Streamyx Static / Public IP Configuration

Categories: Troubleshoot, blog



I’m amazed at TMnet’s folly. No manuals? I’m amazed that I finally completed this task. Although I did make a lot of phone calls to people.. most of them helped a little, but didn’t root out the problem.

Here’s my setup.

It is very important to disable the NAT or else it wont work. If the config are followed it should work.  

For routing the outside traffic to private nodes, I used a very very useful tool (saves me from typing and making iptables scripts) is Firewall Builder (fwbuilder).

It is a GUI for configuring firewalls (iptables, ipfilter, cisco pix, openbsd pf, etc). Very nicely done. Remember to download fwbuilder-ipt (its an iptables rules compiler) first! I choose the preconfigured template for iptables (tempalte no 2) and uses "NAT rules for two servers behind the firewall, using virtual addresses on external interface" example as a guideline. It works.
