how to NAT ip to LAN


Hi!

I have 5 ip static addresses (for ex. 0.0.0.1 - 5)
One of them uses my router box on eth0. (0.0.0.1)
I have LAN on eth1 (192.168.10.0/24)

BUT one of the users of the LAN needs to use this secon free static ip 0.0.0.2 on his pc in the LAN.

So how can I route/forward this IP? Is there any NAT or something rule ?

(I there is some need to know I`m using iptables + HLS (home lan security firewall)
Please help!!!

Thanks.

Smile iptables - why yes

Hello Sushy,

Assuming those ip addresses never change (static) then you will probably want to enable IP_Forwarding and make a simple SNAT (secure nat) rule in iptables.

Something along these lines should do it:
Code:
echo "net.ipv4.ip_forward=1" >> /etc/sysctl.conf
sysctl -p
iptables -A FORWARD -i eth0 -o eth1 -s 192.168.10.0/24 -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -s 192.168.10.0/24 -j SNAT --to-source 0.0.0.1
Obviously you may need to change the ip's if those aren't what you're actually using, and be sure to use iptables-save to keep those settings upon reboot :-)

i'd make a small tweak to this suggestion, as it would not work with the FORWARD chain's policy set to DROP (as it should be)... also, there's a typo with the -i and -o interfaces (they should be inverted)... here's my tweaked suggestion:
Code:
iptables -P FORWARD DROP

iptables -A FORWARD -m state --state ESTABLISHED,RELATED -j ACCEPT

iptables -A FORWARD -i eth1 -o eth0 -s 192.168.10.0/24 \
-m state --state NEW -j ACCEPT

iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -o eth0 -s 192.168.10.0/24 \
-j SNAT --to-source 0.0.0.1
just my ...
