Hello Geeks,
I am a new user trying to configure a secure Home Network.
I have a running system where I have used openwrt based router to partition my network using vlans . I have recently introduced a firewall solution "IPFIRE" in the upstream of the router. The setup has ISP MODEM-> IPFIRE->OPENWRT ROUTER -> devices in multiple VLANS.
ps:ignore the validity of ip ranges, they are indicative.
Currently when I see the logs on lan side of the ipfire firewall, I only see the routers IP.Is there a way to configure the openwrt to pass the real client addresses to upstream firewall?
Let me try this. Another dumb question, Where can I find setting to disable masqurade on wan in openWRT? I checked interfaces in network but could not find something relevant?
Yes, I did it for the vlan from which I am testing.
Tried multiple combinations in fw rule in ipfire.The below is a screenshot of most open option i could try.
Thanks for pointing out. Glad to inform you that it almost worked.Almost because I have the client ips in ip fire but the internet connection is broken.
Thanks a lot for you help.
My bad.Clearly I was thinking in the wrong direction.Did not read your instruction properly.
