As stated in the topic title, I'm having problems port forwarding connections coming from PPTP VPN.

I establish the connection with the PPTP plugin, no problems there. But now I need to forward for example a connection to a VNC server that is on a device connected to the Gargoyle router which established the PPTP connection.

Using the regular port forwarding doesn't work, so I guess I need to change something in /etc/config/firewall?

I tried doing this:

Code: Select all


config defaults
	option syn_flood '1'
	option input 'ACCEPT'
	option output 'ACCEPT'
	option forward 'REJECT'

config zone
	option name 'lan'
	list network 'lan'
	option input 'ACCEPT'
	option output 'ACCEPT'
	option forward 'ACCEPT'

config zone
	option name 'wan'
	list network 'wan'
	list network 'wan6'
	option input 'REJECT'
	option output 'ACCEPT'
	option forward 'REJECT'
	option masq '1'
	option mtu_fix '1'

config forwarding
	option src 'lan'
	option dest 'wan'

config rule
	option name 'Allow-DHCP-Renew'
	option src 'wan'
	option proto 'udp'
	option dest_port '68'
	option target 'ACCEPT'
	option family 'ipv4'

config rule
	option name 'Allow-Ping'
	option src 'wan'
	option proto 'icmp'
	option icmp_type 'echo-request'
	option family 'ipv4'
	option target 'ACCEPT'

config rule
	option name 'Allow-DHCPv6'
	option src 'wan'
	option proto 'udp'
	option src_ip 'fe80::/10'
	option src_port '547'
	option dest_ip 'fe80::/10'
	option dest_port '546'
	option family 'ipv6'
	option target 'ACCEPT'

config rule
	option name 'Allow-ICMPv6-Input'
	option src 'wan'
	option proto 'icmp'
	list icmp_type 'echo-request'
	list icmp_type 'echo-reply'
	list icmp_type 'destination-unreachable'
	list icmp_type 'packet-too-big'
	list icmp_type 'time-exceeded'
	list icmp_type 'bad-header'
	list icmp_type 'unknown-header-type'
	list icmp_type 'router-solicitation'
	list icmp_type 'neighbour-solicitation'
	list icmp_type 'router-advertisement'
	list icmp_type 'neighbour-advertisement'
	option limit '1000/sec'
	option family 'ipv6'
	option target 'ACCEPT'

config rule
	option name 'Allow-ICMPv6-Forward'
	option src 'wan'
	option dest '*'
	option proto 'icmp'
	list icmp_type 'echo-request'
	list icmp_type 'echo-reply'
	list icmp_type 'destination-unreachable'
	list icmp_type 'packet-too-big'
	list icmp_type 'time-exceeded'
	list icmp_type 'bad-header'
	list icmp_type 'unknown-header-type'
	option limit '1000/sec'
	option family 'ipv6'
	option target 'ACCEPT'

config include
	option path '/etc/firewall.user'
	option reload '1'

config include
	option type 'script'
	option path '/usr/lib/gargoyle_firewall_util/gargoyle_additions.firewall'
	option family 'IPv4'
	option reload '1'

config include 'miniupnpd'
	option type 'script'
	option path '/usr/share/miniupnpd/firewall.include'
	option family 'any'
	option reload '1'

config zone 'vpnpptp_zone'
	option name 'vpnpptp'
	option network 'vpnpptp'
	option input 'ACCEPT'
	option output 'ACCEPT'
	option forward 'ACCEPT'
	option mtu_fix '1'
	option masq '1'

config forwarding 'vpnpptp_lan_forwarding'
	option src 'lan'
	option dest 'vpnpptp'

[b]config redirect
        option src 'vpnpptp'
        option src_dport '5900'
        option proto 'tcp'
        option dest 'lan'
        option dest_ip '192.168.0.22'
        option dest_port '5901'[/b]

*Yes, the server is on 5901.

Oh, I guess it actually works! In case anybody else has the same problem - I think you currently can't port forward from the Gargoyle web interface, you have to add the following code in your "/etc/config/firewall" file (if you don't know what I'm talking about - download WinSCP, connect to your router with the SCP connection, browse to that file, edit it and save).

Here's the example, this forwards port 5900 to the device on the lan with the IP 192.168.0.22 to port 5901:

Code: Select all

config redirect
        option src 'vpnpptp'
        option src_dport '5900'
        option proto 'tcp'
        option dest 'lan'
        option dest_ip '192.168.0.22'
        option dest_port '5901'

Do this after you have your PPTP client plugin installed.
