I have an OpenVPN server I've set up on an AWS EC2 instance that is pulling an IPV6 address, and can traceroute6 and ping6 ipv6.google.com. The client can do neither and does not return an address when using online tests like ipleak, or testipv6. The server and client can ping6 and traceroute6 each other.
The client appears to pull the correct address locally, and via ip -6 route. IPV4 has always worked fine without issue. Everything appears good on the AWS side per their instructions here so the instance does have ipv6 enabled with the proper routing on the aws/vpc side. Security groups are pretty wide open for ipv6 as well.
I am assuming it's my routing, but I'm not really sure at this point as I'm no ipv6 or routing expert. Please help!

Don't use proxy NDP. It's a mess.
What you need is to delegate (=route) a prefix to the EC2 instance, then configure this prefix in the OpenVPN config (server-ipv6 keyword with the assigned prefix and mask, e.g. 2001:db8:dead:beef:1::/80), then assign connected users addresses from the prefix.

I have IP camera on local network with address let say: 192.168.5.111:36121 (for rtsp conection)
So I can view real time video in local network for example with:
ffplay rtsp://admin:xxxx#192.168.5.111:36121/cam/realmonitor?.......
I can access my camera from any place as well from my linux VPS server with:
ffplay rtsp://admin:xxxx#xbox2.com:37021/cam/realmonitor?.......
To do this on my remote VPS linux server I have VPN server and locally DD-WRT router connected to this server as client:
So on the local router I have:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i tun11 -p tcp --dport 36121 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.5.111
And on VPS server:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 176.123.123.123/32 -p tcp -m tcp --dport 37021 -j DNAT --to-destination 10.8.0.10:36121
and that is allowing me to connect my camera from global network with:
ffplay rtsp://admin:xxxx#xbox2.com:37021/cam/realmonitor?.......
or
ffplay rtsp://admin:xxxx#176.123.123.123:37021/cam/realmonitor?.......
Everything works fine - but I would like to avoid to use specific port number directly (and use only :443 for all my cameras) so for example instead of
using xbox2.com:37021 to use xbox2.com/cam1 with redirection from apache2, so to access the camera it would be: ffplay rtsp://admin:xxxx#xbox2.com/cam1/cam/realmonitor?.......
Was trying to use RedirectMatch, ProxyPass, ProxyPassReverse in the VirtualHost config but did not succeed.
So:
question nr.1 - is it at all possible to use apache2 to redirect the rtsp as described before?
question nr.2 - if yes so how?
Please note that I can redirect the stream with the node-rtsp-stream within apache2 (over port :443) using:
ProxyPass /wss1 ws://127.0.0.1:3001
ProxyPassReverse /wss1 ws://127.0.0.1:3001
and later to play it with jsmpeg on the web page but the problem is that ffmpeg processing on my VPS server makes big load to the processor, that's why I would like only to redirect the rtsp stream using apache2 without any ffmpeg processing.
I've just configured Strongswan and can successfully bring the VPN tunnel up on an AWS EC2 instance but I’m having issues with the traffic because we need to NAT the private IP address of my EC2 instance so all traffic going through the VPN come from a specific IP.
But currently if I ping the [DESTINATION_IP] address my traffic still originates from my private IP. I have tried several PREROUTING and POSTROUTING rules in iptables but nothing seems to work. Can anyone explain what the problem might be?
Current Settings
In AWS Source/destination checks disabled.

If I correctly understand your question, you are asking about how to setup source NAT on an EC2 instance with Strongswan. I run the same setup and in my case, following iptables rules from [1] provide the requested functionality:
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s <NAT_SOURCE_IP>/24 -o eth0 -m policy --dir out --pol ipsec -j ACCEPT
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s <NAT_SOURCE_IP>/24 -o eth0 -j MASQUERADE

I have setup openvpn client on a asus router, it is running padavan firmware, which is similar to tomato and other.
The VPN client works, but I would like to limits it's use to one or 2 ips on my LAN (i.e. AppleTV) and all other clients bypass the VPN connection.
The padavan vpn client has a custom script that is executed with the interface goes up and down on tun0 which is the interface.
I have attempted to route the IP address of the client that I want to use, but it does not prevent access via all of the other clients:
#!/bin/sh
### Custom user script
### Called after internal VPN client connected/disconnected to remote VPN server
### $1 - action (up/down)
### $IFNAME - tunnel interface name (e.g. ppp5 or tun0)
### $IPLOCAL - tunnel local IP address
### $IPREMOTE - tunnel remote IP address
### $DNS1 - peer DNS1
### $DNS2 - peer DNS2
# private LAN subnet behind a remote server (example)
peer_lan="192.168.0.130"
peer_msk="255.255.255.253"
### example: add static route to private LAN subnet behind a remote server
func_ipup()
{
# route add -net $peer_lan netmask $peer_msk gw $IPREMOTE dev $IFNAME
# route add -net $peer_lan gw $IPREMOTE dev $IFNAME
route add default dev tun0 table 200
rule add from 192.168.0.130 table 200
return 0
}
func_ipdown()
{
# route del -net $peer_lan netmask $peer_msk gw $IPREMOTE dev $IFNAME
return 0
}
logger -t vpnc-script "$IFNAME $1"
case "$1" in
up)
func_ipup
;;
down)
func_ipdown
;;
esac
I realise that this is very specific to the padavan firmware, but I think that the commands that are executed when it goes up should be universal, and my routing skills are very limited !
Maybe I need to block / allow using ip tables instead?
Any suggestions or help gratefully appreciated !
I'm using WFPSampler to redirect all traffic to a specific interface by using command:
WFPSampler.exe -s PROXY -l FWPM_LAYER_ALE_BIND_REDIRECT_V4 -pla 10.0.2.15 -v -in
This works just fine, traffic from all of the processes is redirected as expected. The only problem is that it binds 127.0.0.1 to 10.0.2.15 as well and then some applications fail to connect.
For example, I've created simple Python HTTP server on 127.0.0.1:8000 and I can not access it over the browser using this address.
I know that on FWPM_LAYER_ALE_BIND_REDIRECT_V4 it is only possible to filter by local address, but I have somehow to filter by remote address at this point to avoid binding localhost to 10.0.2.15
You could redirect the outgoing traffic from 10.0.2.15 to 127.0.0.1 at the same time, with the command like:
WFPSampler.exe -s PROXY -l FWPM_LAYER_ALE_CONNECT_REDIRECT_V4 -ipra 10.0.2.15 -pra 127.0.0.1 -v -in
The comments of this answer has metioned it.
I am confuse why my IPTable does not work in Router. what I'm trying to do is redirect any packets from source ip destined to port 80 and 443 to 192.168.1.110:3128. however when I tried this:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.1.5 -p tcp --dport 80:443 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.110:3128
does not work. however when I add this,
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING-j MASQUARADE
it works. but the problem with masquarade is I do not get the real ip but instead the ip of the router. I need to get the source ip so my proxy server could record all ip connected to it. can some one tell me how to make it work without making POSTROUTING jump to Masquarade?
For real transparent proxying you need to use the TPROXY target (in the mangle table, PREROUTING chain). All other iptables-mechanisms like any NAT, MASQUERADE, REDIRECT rewrite the IP addresses of the packet, which makes it impossible to find out where the packet originally was intended to.
The proxy program has to bind() and listen() on a socket like any other server, but needs some specific socket flags (which requires some Linux capabilities (type of permission) or root). – Once connected, there is some way to get the “intended server” from the OS.
Sorry, I’m a little lazy about the details, but searching for “TPROXY” as keyword will get you going quickly!
If I am not wrong, the correct syntax of the rule would be:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -s 192.168.1.5 -p tcp -m multiport --dports 80,443 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.110:3128
--dport 80:443 will forward all ports from 80 to 443
--dports 80,443 will forward port 80 and 443 only.
If you want traffic hitting 192.168.1.5 on port 80 and 443 to be forwarded to 192.168.1.110's 3128 port then you should use the below rule:
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -d 192.168.1.5 -p tcp -m multiport --dports 80,443 -j DNAT --to-destination 192.168.1.110:3128
You should also make sure the gateway on 192.168.1.110 is pointed to your router ip.
Finally you can use the masquerade rule as below.
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -s 192.168.1.0/24 -o eth1 -j MASQUERADE
eth1 should be your outgoing interface.
I had the same issue and the solution was to tell the transparent proxy to forward the source ip in the right header fields.
In case of my nginx proxy the rules were close to:
location / {
proxy_set_header X-Forwarded-For $proxy_add_x_forwarded_for;
proxy_set_header Host $host;
proxy_set_header X-NginX-Proxy true;
proxy_pass http://name_of_proxy;
proxy_redirect off;
}
i used the iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp -s foreign ip to your device --dport 80:443 -j DNAT --to-destination your application or local ip:port.i think you did the prerouting the packet in your device out which never connect to port 80 or 443,these is for web server connect to device.192.168.1.5 is like my local address.
and remember to configecho 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
I think you are doing NAT in both directions by not specifying an interface. Try adding -o eth0 to your -j MASQUERADE line. (Substitute whatever your "external" interface is, instead of eth0, depending on your setup.)
