Hello

I have a little question that perhaps someone can help me with

I have a interface to the inet with 4 dynamic ip addr
eth0 = first dynamic ip addr
eth0:0 = second dynmaic ip addr
and so on

I want to make 1 on 1 nat on the frist 2 aliass and the last 2 alias are for the rest of the network
192.168.1.5 nat to eth0
192.168.1.6 nat to eth0:0
192.168.1.7-to-15 nat to eth0:1
192.168.1.16-to-30 nat to eth0:2

but iptables wan't take alias

What do I do / what can I do ?

I have looked in the The netfilter user mailinglist Archives and found the following solution

ip addr add w.x.y.z/bits dev eth0 label eth00

but how does I get it to work with dynamic address?


The archive mail I found the solution in
http://lists.netfilter.org/pipermail/netfilter/2002-June/034592.html

You're right - netfilter doesn't accept : characters in interface names.

I suggest you create a script to (re)write appropriate SNAT rules, which is 
called by dhcpcd, or whatever else you use to acquire your dynamic 
addresses...

Hi Antony:

Hi All:

        Can anyone tell me how to automatically trigger
my firewall script to execute when the IP on the External
Interface changes. Thanks.

Stu.....

If your external IP address is changing, you must be using DHCP...

If you're using ISCs dhcpcd, you can create scripts called 
/etc/dhcpc/dhcpcd-<ifname>.exe where <ifname> is eth0, eth1, eth2 etc which 
will get called whenever there's a new address on the interface.

man dhcpcd for a bit more info.
