Semi-OFF-TOPIC – SIP Iptables And NAT – Same Source, Different Destination

Hi all,
anyone with iptables master power pack knowledge 🙂 ?

Having some problem with NAT!
I have a server that is the LAN gateway (A) with the public IP, and two asterisk boxes behind it.

I’ve configured port forward so port 5070 goes to *1 and 5080 goes to *2. Working fine.

The problem is when some machine outside tries to talk with both asterisks.
As soon as the 1st package gets routed to *1 the subsequent packets will all also get routed to *1, no matter that the destination port is now 5080.

Seams like some “nat cache”, where it will decide to forward all packets to *1 that come from origin “IP:PORT” X (since it was the first one contacted)

    Yes its called the state table. This because connection IP:PORT has a relationship with inside IP 192.168.x.x port X.

    I guess you have configured the redirect port to be same on both?

    Eg 5070 goes to *1:5060 and 5080 goes to *2:5060

    What you need to do, is to have different inside ports as well, and also configure the asterisk boxes to listen on a different SIP port.
