IP address issue from HW -> VPS [message #21123]

Hi,

I have following problem:

In apache logs on VPS only IP shown is the IP from the hardware node. This means:

- no good log for any application;
- no possibility to do IP filtering in apache;
- no possibility for the statistics to work;
- any other IP related issue / problem can not be traced.

Has anyone has any idea why am I only seeing IP from HN on my VPS and how to solve this, so the HN will pass 'real' IP's to the VPS?

VPS has it's own IP, different from the HN and is directly accessible through that IP (or so I think).

Any help is appreciated!

Regards,
Aleks

Hello Aleks,

src IP can be replaced by NAT on HN.

thank you,

I've found your previous questions:
http://forum.openvz.org/index.php?t=msg&goto=20570&& amp; amp;srch=firewall#msg_20570

Are you sure that you have firewall disabled in HN?
Could you please show output of the following commands in HN:
iptables -t filter -L
iptables -t nat -L

thank you,
Vasily Averin

Could you please explain why you need this rule?
It replaced src IP for all IP packets that have mark 0x9, Obviously you have external traffic marked by this mark, as result all packets to your VE have src IP from HN.

could you please disable iptables service on this node? I expect it should resolve this issue.

thank you,

It depend on distribution installed in HN:
On RedHat-based dsitributions you can disable firewall on the running node by using the following command:
# service iptables stop

And then you need to disable iptable service
# chkconfig iptables off
