Hi,

 

I have a WAN connection with several public IPs (28 subnet). I have configured the WAN2 like:

 

IP: 82.216.XXX.242

SM: 255.255.255.240
GW: 82.216.XXX.141

 

I then added all IPs (like 82.216.XXX.243, 82.216.XXX.244, 82.216.XXX.245, etc.) as WAN IP alias adresses.

 

Then, under "Transmission" "NAT" I added some port forwardings. I have port 10000 to be forwarded on the main IP (82.216.XXX.242). Hence, I left the "WAN IP" selection empty. 

When trying to add another port forwarding for the same port, but selecting another WAN IP (82.216.XXX.243) I get the error "The source port already exists for the chosen interface(s). Please change the source port.".

 

I even tried to set another WAN IP for my first port forwarding. Simply, so that a WAN IP is selected and that this field is not empty. Same result.

 

 

Is this a bug? Anything I did wrong?

  @Honkman Found this post: https://community.tp-link.com/en/business/forum/topic/653114D

 

Does that mean, the 605 can't handle that? 

Why is it possible to configure it then in Omada?

 

Which Omada Gateways are able to handle that?

It might not be supported on your model yet.

  @Clive_A I guess so and ordered a more "advances" model. ER7412-M2

But I have to admit that I was a little  bit surprised that a "business" router does not have that, for me, basic feature. Alias IPs does not make sense at all for that model.

I confirmed with the dev that the ER7206 V2 pre-release should support that.

As in your original post, there is no mentioning about the hardware version.
