Before posting something, READ the changelog, WATCH the videos, howto and provide following:
Your install is: Bare metal, ESXi, what CPU model, RAM, HD, what EVE version you have, output of the uname -a and any other info that might help us faster.

cannot get devices behind routers/firewalls to access internet

Post by Kitkat0981 » Sun Mar 21, 2021 1:34 am

hello,

i had the community version before and i have decided to purchase the PRO and rebuild a new instance in GCP.
In the community version I had to use pnet9 with iptables masquerade.
I see that this is now in the PRO version although, when using the NAT cloud, the router can access internet but no matter what I put behind the router or firewall, the devices in the LAN cannot access the internet eventhough the router or firewall is natting and setup as a DHCP client on the NAT cloud.

I also tried to do the same as the comunity version with the pnet9 assigned 198.18.18.1/24 and masquerading in iptables, but this iptables line keeps getting overidden by 172.19.129.x network.

what am i doing wrong?

for the life of me I cannot make the devices on the LAN side to access internet eventhough the router can ping and resolve. WHy is that?

As the GCP providing only single pub IP, then you may have look on these solutions
