WAF - WebServer behind IPSec-VPN not working

Hej,

i have an problem with the WAF in combination with an IPsec-VPN-tunnel. Following error occours:

 

Forbidden

You don't have permission to access / on this server.

Additionally, a 503 Service Unavailable error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

 

About my network:

Local LAN: 192.168.15.0/24
Local IP of XG: 192.168.15.1
Remote LAN: 192.168.17.0/24
Remote IP of WebServer for WAF: 192.168.17.33
Firmware of XG: v17.5.3

 

Result of tcpdump:

16:46:16.797513 ipsec0, OUT: IP 169.254.234.5.47125 > 192.168.17.33.80: Flags [S], seq 3415650181, win 32440, options [mss 16220,nop,nop,sackOK,nop,wscale 7], length 0

 

I tried following:

  • sys-traffic-nat add destination 192.168.17.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 snatip 192.168.15.1
  • system ipsec_route add net 192.168.17.0/255.255.255.0 tunnelname HeadOffice
  • activated NAT via IPSec connection

Any ideas? Did i forget something or is this a bug?

  • Hi  

    If the WAF domain is published and anyone tries to access it, the traffic will always hit through WAN zone as there is no such configuration in WAF business rule to toggle.

    If the BO users try to access the webserver through IPsec VPN tunnel, DNS entry should be there and this traffic will be traverse through IPsec tunnel using VPN to LAN/DMZ firewall rule configuration.

    If you facing trouble accessing the webserver, I would recommend to contact technical support and open a service request

  • Hi Keyur 

     

     

    That isn't the problem at all. 

     

     

    The out side user ----- Hit WAF on firewall -------WAF forward traffic through ipsec tunnel to Web server that is on the other end. 

     

    This is fully working but then stops after few weeks then a reboot needs to happen. 

     

    I have talked to support months ago around this but they weren't helpful in find a fix. 

     

    Only thing that fixes this is a reboot.
