The technique was originally used as a +shortcut to avoid the need to readdress every host when a network was +moved. It has become a popular and essential tool in conserving global +address space in the face of IPv4 address exhaustion. One +Internet-routable IP address of a NAT gateway can be used for an entire +private network. + +IP masquerading is a technique that hides an entire IP address space, +usually consisting of private IP addresses, behind a single IP address +in another, usually public address space. The hidden addresses are +changed into a single (public) IP address as the source address of the +outgoing IP packets so they appear as originating not from the hidden +host but from the routing device itself. Because of the popularity of +this technique to conserve IPv4 address space, the term NAT has become +virtually synonymous with IP masquerading. + +As network address translation modifies the IP address information in +packets, NAT implementations may vary in their specific behavior in +various addressing cases and their effect on network traffic. The +specifics of NAT behavior are not commonly documented by vendors of +equipment containing NAT implementations. + +The computers on an internal network can use any of the addresses set +aside by the :abbr:`IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority)` for +private addressing (see :rfc:`1918`). These reserved IP addresses are +not in use on the Internet, so an external machine will not directly +route to them. The following addresses are reserved for private use: + +* 10.0.0.0 to 10.255.255.255 (CIDR: 10.0.0.0/8) +* 172.16.0.0 to 172.31.255.255 (CIDR: 172.16.0.0/12) +* 192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 (CIDR: 192.168.0.0/16) + + +If an ISP deploys a :abbr:`CGN (Carrier-grade NAT)`, and uses +:rfc:`1918` address space to number customer gateways, the risk of +address collision, and therefore routing failures, arises when the +customer network already uses an :rfc:`1918` address space. + +This prompted some ISPs to develop a policy within the :abbr:`ARIN +(American Registry for Internet Numbers)` to allocate new private +address space for CGNs, but ARIN deferred to the IETF before +implementing the policy indicating that the matter was not a typical +allocation issue but a reservation of addresses for technical purposes +(per :rfc:`2860`). + +IETF published :rfc:`6598`, detailing a shared address space for use in +ISP CGN deployments that can handle the same network prefixes occurring +both on inbound and outbound interfaces. ARIN returned address space to +the :abbr:`IANA (Internet Assigned Numbers Authority)` for this +allocation. + +The allocated address block is 100.64.0.0/10. + +Devices evaluating whether an IPv4 address is public must be updated to +recognize the new address space. Allocating more private IPv4 address +space for NAT devices might prolong the transition to IPv6. + +Overview +======== + +Different NAT Types +------------------- + +.. _source-nat: + +SNAT +^^^^ + +:abbr:`SNAT (Source Network Address Translation)` is the most common +form of :abbr:`NAT (Network Address Translation)` and is typically +referred to simply as NAT. To be more correct, what most people refer +to as :abbr:`NAT (Network Address Translation)` is actually the process +of :abbr:`PAT (Port Address Translation)`, or NAT overload. SNAT is +typically used by internal users/private hosts to access the Internet +- the source address is translated and thus kept private. + +.. _destination-nat: + +DNAT +^^^^ + +:abbr:`DNAT (Destination Network Address Translation)` changes the +destination address of packets passing through the router, while +:ref:`source-nat` changes the source address of packets. DNAT is +typically used when an external (public) host needs to initiate a +session with an internal (private) host. A customer needs to access a +private service behind the routers public IP. A connection is +established with the routers public IP address on a well known port and +thus all traffic for this port is rewritten to address the internal +(private) host. + +.. _bidirectional-nat: + +Bidirectional NAT +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +This is a common scenario where both :ref:`source-nat` and +:ref:`destination-nat` are configured at the same time. It's commonly +used then internal (private) hosts need to establish a connection with +external resources and external systems need to access internal +(private) resources. + +NAT, Routing, Firewall Interaction +---------------------------------- + +There is a very nice picture/explanation in the Vyatta documentation +which should be rewritten here. + +NAT Ruleset +----------- + +:abbr:`NAT (Network Address Translation)` is configured entirely on a +series of so called `rules`. Rules are numbered and evaluated by the +underlying OS in numerical order! The rule numbers can be changes by +utilizing the :cfgcmd:`rename` and :cfgcmd:`copy` commands. + +.. note:: Changes to the NAT system only affect newly established + connections. Already established connections are not affected. + +.. hint:: When designing your NAT ruleset leave some space between + consecutive rules for later extension. Your ruleset could start with + numbers 10, 20, 30. You thus can later extend the ruleset and place + new rules between existing ones. + +Rules will be created for both :ref:`source-nat` and +:ref:`destination-nat`. + +For :ref:`bidirectional-nat` a rule for both :ref:`source-nat` and +:ref:`destination-nat` needs to be created. + +.. _traffic-filters: + +Traffic Filters +--------------- + +Traffic Filters are used to control which packets will have the defined +NAT rules applied. Five different filters can be applied within a NAT +rule. + +* **outbound-interface** - applicable only to :ref:`source-nat`. It + configures the interface which is used for the outside traffic that + this translation rule applies to. + + Example: + + .. code-block:: none + + set nat source rule 20 outbound-interface eth0 + +* **inbound-interface** - applicable only to :ref:`destination-nat`. It + configures the interface which is used for the inside traffic the + translation rule applies to. + + Example: + + .. code-block:: none + + set nat destination rule 20 inbound-interface eth1 + +* **protocol** - specify which types of protocols this translation rule + applies to. Only packets matching the specified protocol are NATed. + By default this applies to `all` protocols. + + Example: + + * Set SNAT rule 20 to only NAT TCP and UDP packets + * Set DNAT rule 20 to only NAT UDP packets + + .. code-block:: none + + set nat source rule 20 protocol tcp_udp + set nat destination rule 20 protocol udp + +* **source** - specifies which packets the NAT translation rule applies + to based on the packets source IP address and/or source port. Only + matching packets are considered for NAT. + + Example: + + * Set SNAT rule 20 to only NAT packets arriving from the 192.0.2.0/24 + network + * Set SNAT rule 30 to only NAT packets arriving from the 203.0.113.0/24 + network with a source port of 80 and 443 + + .. code-block:: none + + set nat source rule 20 source address 192.0.2.0/24 + set nat source rule 30 source address 203.0.113.0/24 + set nat source rule 30 source port 80,443 + + +* **destination** - specify which packets the translation will be + applied to, only based on the destination address and/or port number + configured. + + .. note:: If no destination is specified the rule will match on any + destination address and port. + + Example: + + * Configure SNAT rule (40) to only NAT packets with a destination + address of 192.0.2.1. + + .. code-block:: none + + set nat source rule 40 destination address 192.0.2.1 + + +Address Conversion +------------------ + +Every NAT rule has a translation command defined. The address defined +for the translation is the address used when the address information in +a packet is replaced. + +Source Address +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +For :ref:`source-nat` rules the packets source address will be replaced +with the address specified in the translation command. A port +translation can also be specified and is part of the translation +address. + +.. note:: The translation address must be set to one of the available + addresses on the configured `outbound-interface` or it must be set to + `masquerade` which will use the primary IP address of the + `outbound-interface` as its translation address. + +.. note:: When using NAT for a large number of host systems it + recommended that a minimum of 1 IP address is used to NAT every 256 + private host systems. This is due to the limit of 65,000 port numbers + available for unique translations and a reserving an average of + 200-300 sessions per host system. + +Example: + +* Define a discrete source IP address of 100.64.0.1 for SNAT rule 20 +* Use address `masquerade` (the interfaces primary address) on rule 30 +* For a large amount of private machines behind the NAT your address + pool might to be bigger. Use any address in the range 100.64.0.10 - + 100.64.0.20 on SNAT rule 40 when doing the translation + + +.. code-block:: none + + set nat source rule 20 translation address 100.64.0.1 + set nat source rule 30 translation address 'masquerade' + set nat source rule 40 translation address 100.64.0.10-100.64.0.20 + + +Destination Address +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +For :ref:`destination-nat` rules the packets destination address will be +replaced by the specified address in the `translation address` command. + +Example: + +* DNAT rule 10 replaces the destination address of an inbound packet + with 192.0.2.10 + +.. code-block:: none + + set nat destination rule 10 translation address 192.0.2.10 + + +Configuration Examples +====================== + +To setup SNAT, we need to know: + +* The internal IP addresses we want to translate +* The outgoing interface to perform the translation on +* The external IP address to translate to + +In the example used for the Quick Start configuration above, we +demonstrate the following configuration: + +.. code-block:: none + + set nat source rule 100 outbound-interface 'eth0' + set nat source rule 100 source address '192.168.0.0/24' + set nat source rule 100 translation address 'masquerade' + +Which generates the following configuration: + +.. code-block:: none + + rule 100 { + outbound-interface eth0 + source { + address 192.168.0.0/24 + } + translation { + address masquerade + } + } + +In this example, we use **masquerade** as the translation address +instead of an IP address. The **masquerade** target is effectively an +alias to say "use whatever IP address is on the outgoing interface", +rather than a statically configured IP address. This is useful if you +use DHCP for your outgoing interface and do not know what the external +address will be. + +When using NAT for a large number of host systems it recommended that a +minimum of 1 IP address is used to NAT every 256 host systems. This is +due to the limit of 65,000 port numbers available for unique +translations and a reserving an average of 200-300 sessions per host +system. + +Example: For an ~8,000 host network a source NAT pool of 32 IP addresses +is recommended. + +A pool of addresses can be defined by using a hyphen between two IP +addresses: + +.. code-block:: none + + set nat source rule 100 translation address '203.0.113.32-203.0.113.63' + +.. _avoidng_leaky_nat: + +Avoiding "leaky" NAT +-------------------- + +Linux netfilter will not NAT traffic marked as INVALID. This often +confuses people into thinking that Linux (or specifically VyOS) has a +broken NAT implementation because non-NATed traffic is seen leaving an +external interface. This is actually working as intended, and a packet +capture of the "leaky" traffic should reveal that the traffic is either +an additional TCP "RST", "FIN,ACK", or "RST,ACK" sent by client systems +after Linux netfilter considers the connection closed. The most common +is the additional TCP RST some host implementations send after +terminating a connection (which is implementation-specific). + +In other words, connection tracking has already observed the connection +be closed and has transition the flow to INVALID to prevent attacks from +attempting to reuse the connection. + +You can avoid the "leaky" behavior by using a firewall policy that drops +"invalid" state packets. + +Having control over the matching of INVALID state traffic, e.g. the +ability to selectively log, is an important troubleshooting tool for +observing broken protocol behavior. For this reason, VyOS does not +globally drop invalid state traffic, instead allowing the operator to +make the determination on how the traffic is handled. + +.. _hairpin_nat_reflection: + +Hairpin NAT/NAT Reflection +-------------------------- + +A typical problem with using NAT and hosting public servers is the +ability for internal systems to reach an internal server using it's +external IP address. The solution to this is usually the use of +split-DNS to correctly point host systems to the internal address when +requests are made internally. Because many smaller networks lack DNS +infrastructure, a work-around is commonly deployed to facilitate the +traffic by NATing the request from internal hosts to the source address +of the internal interface on the firewall. + +This technique is commonly referred to as NAT Reflection or Hairpin NAT. + +Example: + +* Redirect Microsoft RDP traffic from the outside (WAN, external) world + via :ref:`destination-nat` in rule 100 to the internal, private host + 192.0.2.40. + +* Redirect Microsoft RDP traffic from the internal (LAN, private) + network via :ref:`destination-nat` in rule 110 to the internal, + private host 192.0.2.40. We also need a :ref:`source-nat` rule 110 for + the reverse path of the traffic. The internal network 192.0.2.0/24 is + reachable via interface `eth0.10`. + +.. code-block:: none + + set nat destination rule 100 description 'Regular destination NAT from external' + set nat destination rule 100 destination port '3389' + set nat destination rule 100 inbound-interface 'pppoe0' + set nat destination rule 100 protocol 'tcp' + set nat destination rule 100 translation address '192.0.2.40' + + set nat destination rule 110 description 'NAT Reflection: INSIDE' + set nat destination rule 110 destination port '3389' + set nat destination rule 110 inbound-interface 'eth0.10' + set nat destination rule 110 protocol 'tcp' + set nat destination rule 110 translation address '192.0.2.40' + + set nat source rule 110 description 'NAT Reflection: INSIDE' + set nat source rule 110 destination address '192.0.2.0/24' + set nat source rule 110 outbound-interface 'eth0.10' + set nat source rule 110 protocol 'tcp' + set nat source rule 110 source address '192.0.2.0/24' + set nat source rule 110 translation address 'masquerade' + +Which results in a configuration of: + +.. code-block:: none + + vyos@vyos# show nat + destination { + rule 100 { + description "Regular destination NAT from external" + destination { + port 3389 + } + inbound-interface pppoe0 + protocol tcp + translation { + address 192.0.2.40 + } + } + rule 110 { + description "NAT Reflection: INSIDE" + destination { + port 3389 + } + inbound-interface eth0.10 + protocol tcp + translation { + address 192.0.2.40 + } + } + } + source { + rule 110 { + description "NAT Reflection: INSIDE" + destination { + address 192.0.2.0/24 + } + outbound-interface eth0.10 + protocol tcp + source { + address 192.0.2.0/24 + } + translation { + address masquerade + } + } + } + + +Destination NAT +--------------- + +DNAT is typically referred to as a **Port Forward**. When using VyOS as +a NAT router and firewall, a common configuration task is to redirect +incoming traffic to a system behind the firewall. + +In this example, we will be using the example Quick Start configuration +above as a starting point. + +To setup a destination NAT rule we need to gather: + +* The interface traffic will be coming in on; +* The protocol and port we wish to forward; +* The IP address of the internal system we wish to forward traffic to. + +In our example, we will be forwarding web server traffic to an internal +web server on 192.168.0.100. HTTP traffic makes use of the TCP protocol +on port 80. For other common port numbers, see: +https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_TCP_and_UDP_port_numbers + +Our configuration commands would be: + +.. code-block:: none + + set nat destination rule 10 description 'Port Forward: HTTP to 192.168.0.100' + set nat destination rule 10 destination port '80' + set nat destination rule 10 inbound-interface 'eth0' + set nat destination rule 10 protocol 'tcp' + set nat destination rule 10 translation address '192.168.0.100' + +Which would generate the following NAT destination configuration: + +.. code-block:: none + + nat { + destination { + rule 10 { + description "Port Forward: HTTP to 192.168.0.100" + destination { + port 80 + } + inbound-interface eth0 + protocol tcp + translation { + address 192.168.0.100 + } + } + } + } + +.. note:: If forwarding traffic to a different port than it is arriving + on, you may also configure the translation port using + `set nat destination rule [n] translation port`. + +This establishes our Port Forward rule, but if we created a firewall +policy it will likely block the traffic. + +It is important to note that when creating firewall rules that the DNAT +translation occurs **before** traffic traverses the firewall. In other +words, the destination address has already been translated to +192.168.0.100. + +So in our firewall policy, we want to allow traffic coming in on the +outside interface, destined for TCP port 80 and the IP address of +192.168.0.100. + +.. code-block:: none + + set firewall name OUTSIDE-IN rule 20 action 'accept' + set firewall name OUTSIDE-IN rule 20 destination address '192.168.0.100' + set firewall name OUTSIDE-IN rule 20 destination port '80' + set firewall name OUTSIDE-IN rule 20 protocol 'tcp' + set firewall name OUTSIDE-IN rule 20 state new 'enable' + +This would generate the following configuration: + +.. code-block:: none + + rule 20 { + action accept + destination { + address 192.168.0.100 + port 80 + } + protocol tcp + state { + new enable + } + } + +.. note:: + + If you have configured the `INSIDE-OUT` policy, you will need to add + additional rules to permit inbound NAT traffic. + +1-to-1 NAT +---------- + +Another term often used for DNAT is **1-to-1 NAT**. For a 1-to-1 NAT +configuration, both DNAT and SNAT are used to NAT all traffic from an +external IP address to an internal IP address and vice-versa. + +Typically, a 1-to-1 NAT rule omits the destination port (all ports) and +replaces the protocol with either **all** or **ip**. + +Then a corresponding SNAT rule is created to NAT outgoing traffic for +the internal IP to a reserved external IP. This dedicates an external IP +address to an internal IP address and is useful for protocols which +don't have the notion of ports, such as GRE. + +Here's an extract of a simple 1-to-1 NAT configuration with one internal +and one external interface: + +.. code-block:: none + + set interfaces ethernet eth0 address '192.168.1.1/24' + set interfaces ethernet eth0 description 'Inside interface' + set interfaces ethernet eth1 address '192.0.2.30/24' + set interfaces ethernet eth1 description 'Outside interface' + set nat destination rule 2000 description '1-to-1 NAT example' + set nat destination rule 2000 destination address '192.0.2.30' + set nat destination rule 2000 inbound-interface 'eth1' + set nat destination rule 2000 translation address '192.168.1.10' + set nat source rule 2000 description '1-to-1 NAT example' + set nat source rule 2000 outbound-interface 'eth1' + set nat source rule 2000 source address '192.168.1.10' + set nat source rule 2000 translation address '192.0.2.30' + +Firewall rules are written as normal, using the internal IP address as +the source of outbound rules and the destination of inbound rules. + +NAT before VPN +-------------- + +Some application service providers (ASPs) operate a VPN gateway to +provide access to their internal resources, and require that a +connecting organisation translate all traffic to the service provider +network to a source address provided by the ASP. + +Example Network +^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +Here's one example of a network environment for an ASP. +The ASP requests that all connections from this company should come from +172.29.41.89 - an address that is assigned by the ASP and not in use at +the customer site. + +.. figure:: /_static/images/nat_before_vpn_topology.png + :scale: 100 % + :alt: NAT before VPN Topology + + NAT before VPN Topology + + +Configuration +^^^^^^^^^^^^^ + +The required configuration can be broken down into 4 major pieces: + +* A dummy interface for the provider-assigned IP; +* NAT (specifically, Source NAT); +* IPSec IKE and ESP Groups; +* IPSec VPN tunnels. + + +Dummy interface +""""""""""""""" + +The dummy interface allows us to have an equivalent of the Cisco IOS +Loopback interface - a router-internal interface we can use for IP +addresses the router must know about, but which are not actually +assigned to a real network. + +We only need a single step for this interface: + +.. code-block:: none + + set interfaces dummy dum0 address '172.29.41.89/32' + +NAT Configuration +""""""""""""""""" + +.. code-block:: none + + set nat source rule 110 description 'Internal to ASP' + set nat source rule 110 destination address '172.27.1.0/24' + set nat source rule 110 outbound-interface 'any' + set nat source rule 110 source address '192.168.43.0/24' + set nat source rule 110 translation address '172.29.41.89' + set nat source rule 120 description 'Internal to ASP' + set nat source rule 120 destination address '10.125.0.0/16' + set nat source rule 120 outbound-interface 'any' + set nat source rule 120 source address '192.168.43.0/24' + set nat source rule 120 translation address '172.29.41.89' + +IPSec IKE and ESP +""""""""""""""""" + +The ASP has documented their IPSec requirements: + +* IKE Phase: + + * aes256 Encryption + * sha256 Hashes + +* ESP Phase: + + * aes256 Encryption + * sha256 Hashes + * DH Group 14 + + +Additionally, we want to use VPNs only on our eth1 interface (the +external interface in the image above) + +.. code-block:: none + + set vpn ipsec ike-group my-ike ikev2-reauth 'no' + set vpn ipsec ike-group my-ike key-exchange 'ikev1' + set vpn ipsec ike-group my-ike lifetime '7800' + set vpn ipsec ike-group my-ike proposal 1 dh-group '14' + set vpn ipsec ike-group my-ike proposal 1 encryption 'aes256' + set vpn ipsec ike-group my-ike proposal 1 hash 'sha256' + + set vpn ipsec esp-group my-esp compression 'disable' + set vpn ipsec esp-group my-esp lifetime '3600' + set vpn ipsec esp-group my-esp mode 'tunnel' + set vpn ipsec esp-group my-esp pfs 'disable' + set vpn ipsec esp-group my-esp proposal 1 encryption 'aes256' + set vpn ipsec esp-group my-esp proposal 1 hash 'sha256' + + set vpn ipsec ipsec-interfaces interface 'eth1' + +IPSec VPN Tunnels +""""""""""""""""" + +We'll use the IKE and ESP groups created above for this VPN.
