Hi,

 

I assigned router statuc public IP and changed  default http server ports. Also, I temporarly allowed remote management from all ip addresses. I didn't setup any  any ACLs or tuned other security settings.

 

Yet I can't connect to the web admin from the Internet. 

 

 

curl -v http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy
*   Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy...
* connect to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port yyyy failed: Connection refused
* Failed to connect to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port yyyy: Connection refused
* Closing connection 0
curl: (7) Failed to connect to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port yyyy: Connection refusedcurl -v http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy
*   Trying xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:yyyy...
* connect to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port yyyy failed: Connection refused
* Failed to connect to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port yyyy: Connection refused
* Closing connection 0
curl: (7) Failed to connect to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx port yyyy: Connection refused

 

 

but I can  ssh into a server behind the gateway usingthe Port Forwarding feature

 

ssh -v -p yyyy xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
OpenSSH_8.4p1 Debian-5+deb11u4, OpenSSL 1.1.1w  11 Sep 2023
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 19: include /etc/ssh/ssh_config.d/*.conf matched no files
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 21: Applying options for *
debug1: Connecting to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] port yyyy.
debug1: Connection established.ssh -v -p yyyy xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
OpenSSH_8.4p1 Debian-5+deb11u4, OpenSSL 1.1.1w  11 Sep 2023
debug1: Reading configuration data /etc/ssh/ssh_config
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 19: include /etc/ssh/ssh_config.d/*.conf matched no files
debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 21: Applying options for *
debug1: Connecting to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx [xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx] port yyyy.
debug1: Connection established.

 

so at least the IP address is right and the gateway can accept incoming traffic from the Internet. 

 

What am I missing?

  @Clive_A nope. 

Yesterday I set up WireGuard server and if I connect to the switch over the VPN and refresh the page it works. I think it's better from the security standpoint. 

 

So at this point I'm just curious why it's not working and what am I doing wrong. 

 

Best,

Yevhenii

Wireshark on the WAN after you set port mirroring and filter the port(http/https), and see how its traffic flows.
