[ilugd] port forwarding
I want to temporarily open ssh access to my machine behind a huawei smartax 882 router (BSNL broadband). I followed instructions at the following link to set up a virtual server on the router. http://portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Huawei/SmartAX-MT882/SSH.htm Is there a way of testing if the router is now allowing traffic across that port? (Sorry, I do not know if the terms I used are correct.) I still cannot access the machine from outsite the router. I have configured by ssh server (using webmin) to allow connection to forwarded ports. Port scan on the machine shows that ssh port is open. Port scan on the router does not show the corresponding port to be open (is it supposed to?). I will be thankful for any pointers.

Tried nmap on your external IP? Also, there's Sheild's Up on grc.com which can check open ports. ___ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Next Event: http://freed.in - February 22/23, 2008 Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
Re: [ilugd] port forwarding
Is there a way of testing if the router is now allowing traffic across that port? (Sorry, I do not know if the terms I used are correct.) Also check the firewall settings in the router. Try disabling firewall, setup port-forwarding and test remote access. Remember to enable firewall after testing this and then configure firewall to allow the ssh service to access port 22 (or whichever port you want it to access).
