Hello,
I've a Fedora 18 OS which is running behind a Freebox Revolution
(French ISP router) and having IP 192.168.1.39. The F18 OS hosts a
Tomcat server listening to port 8080.
I've opened port 8079 and 8080 in public (default) zone:
# firewall-cmd --list-port
8079/tcp 8080/tcp
I've tried to redirect port from 8079 towards 8080 via TCP, UDP:
# firewall-cmd --list-forward-port
port=8079:proto=tcp:toport=8080:toaddr=
port=8079:proto=udp:toport=8080:toaddr=
I'm thinking this is sufficient to redirect effectively all
requests on 8079 to 8080, so that an HTTP GET on
http://192.168.1.39:8079/ SHOULD (afaik) be redirected to Tomcat
server as if I've done HTTP GET on http://192.168.1.39:8080/
(which currently shows me Tomcat welcome page).
That would be the expected result, but when I HTTP GET on http://192.168.1.39:8079/
via Firefox, nothing happens except web browser tells me that it
cannot reach given adress.
If I use 192.168.1.39 IP isntead of 127.0.0.1, it's because I
further want to redirect port to a guest virtual machine which
will host the Tomcat server, but currently I just want the
redirection to work in local.
Any hint for enabling correctly the port redirection? Where is the
misconfiguration?
Thanks for any help.
