I note,  no answers yet..
I plan on spending some time tomorrow trying to understand this issue.

just letting you know..

I had a bit of a think about how to describe what I am trying to achieve.

I am treating each jail likes its own little "virtual machine”. The jail provides certain services, using things like nginx or nodejs, php-fpm, mysql or postgresql. The jails can control connections to themselves by configuring the firewall ports that are opened on the IP their IP (10.0.0.0/16 or a public IP). I know the jails have no firewall of their own, the firewall is configured from the host.

I want each jail or “virtual machine” to be able to communicate with one another and the wider internet. When a jail does a DNS query for another App jail, it may get a public IP on its own Host (or it may get another host) and it has no issues being able to communicate with another jail on the same host.

At the moment all of the above is working perfectly except for jail to jail communication on the same host (when the communication is not directly between 10.0.0.0/16 IP addresses).

I am not exactly sure how to draw the setup so it doesn’t confuse the situation. The setup is extremely simple (I am not running vimage), jails running on the 10.0.0.0/16 (cloned lo1 interface) network or with public IPs. The jails with private IPs are the HTTP app jails. The Host runs a HTTP Proxy (nginx) and forwards traffic to each HTTP App jail based on the URL it receives. The jails with public IPs are things like database jails which cannot be proxied by the Host.

I can happily communicate with any jail from my laptop (externally) but when I want one jail to communicate with another jail (for example an App Jail communicating with the database jail) the traffic shows as backwards (destination:port -> source:port) in the IPFW logs (tshark shows the traffic correctly source:port -> destination:port). The jail to jail traffic tries to go over the lo1 interface (backwards) and is blocked. Below is some IPFW logs of an App jail (10.0.0.25) communicating with the database jail (aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd)

IPFW logs. The lines labelled UNKNOWN is the check-state rule (everything is labelled UNKNOWN even if it is KNOWN traffic)

If so, what sort of routing is setup on both host and jails?

Routing is what would be added by default (whatever the host system adds when adding an IP), there is no custom routing. I have wondered if I need to modify the routing table to get this to work.

Below is the output of netstat -rn

www.xxx.yy <http://www.xxx.yy/>.zzz is the gateway address
eee.fff.gg.hhh is the database jail public IP
aaa.bbb.cc.ddd is the public IP for NAT
lll.mmm.nn.ooo is the Hosts public IP

Yes just like that.

Was this so one jail can only access service/s provided by other jail/s, both/all with internal NAT'd addresses, by using only the public address and port of the 'router', which IIRC this is a single system with jails?

If so, what sort of routing is setup on both host and jails?

(blindfolded, no idea where I've pinned the donkey's tail :)
