Hi All
This is my set up:
1)I have a QNAP on my internal network that can be reached via port 8080 (the server has the option to authenticate someone using SSL if needed)
In order for users on the outside network to get access to my internal web server I had a DNAT set up in place which works fine.
I 've now enabled WAF on port 9995 using SSL.
Virtual Web server: 9995 using SSL
Real Server:8080 no SSL
What I would like to do is to allow people to connect to that internal server ONLY by using that 9995 port(WAF set up). However, I am facing the following issues:
1) When people connect to https://**********:9995 and they acknowledge the certificate, the QNAP will automatically assume that I want to login using SSL. This is not the case if I login via port 8080 directly(i.e not use the WAF). However, I've noticed that If I change the virtual web server to use plain HTTP instead, I can't longer see the SSL option enabled on the internal server
2) If I block the DNAT I am only able to browse up to the login page of my server but unable to authenticate as the URL redirects to port 8080
Questions:
Is issue 1 the way it should be configured or is it a bug? How can I achieve point 2? (I want to totally remove the DNAT and the only way for someone to connect to the internal NAS should be via WAF-i.e. specific port that redirects the whatever port I have configured internally)
Thanks
