Port Forwarding

[Megladon]

I've been trying to figure out how to port forward to my server but can't seem to figure it out.

Configuration:

Internet->WAN Router->Untangle Linux Firewall->Unmanaged Switch->Wifi AP Router

At the moment the server is connected to the WAN Router but I want to configure it to be connected to the Unmanaged Switch.

 

The WAN Router is on 192.168.2.x subnet while the Wifi AP Router is on 192.168.1.x

I want be able to reach the server from the internet and from the Wifi AP Router.

Models of the routers?

[Megladon]

Netgear DGN 2200v3 and Netgear WNR1000v3

It varies with router models, but most port forwarding tutorials should work.

The problem is it is 2 different subnets, I know how to port forward from the WAN router to the Untangle PC that's easy but what do I do from there to I Port Forward it to the unmanaged switch, the Wifi router or the server? Because its not just like I can Port Forward from the WAN router to the Server since the server is on a different subnet.

 

And how to physically change the settings I understand but to which adress should I Port Forward

So if it gets to the firewall without issue then it should know how to reach everything else.

For the firewall to reach both subnets you'll need a route pointing to the second router and the subnet that will sit behind it.

On that second router, a default route pointing to the firewall should be enough.

I had the subnets wrong way around in my original post but thanks I firstly port forwarded from WAN router to firewall then verified it. I then simply Port forwarded to 192.168.2.30(server) and it worked. Well

Wasn't quite THAT easy but not particularly hard as well. Thing is I didn't understand how an unmanaged switch worked but that I researched. And all the other port forward rules  the WAN router was set to 192.168.1.3(no idea) so I initially did that as well instead off just port forwarding to 192.168.1.201(firewall) I did that as I didn't understand and still don't why 192.168.1.3 I thought that there was some hidden reason for it,only vox was forwarded to 192.168.1.1. SO IT WORKS!!

And on a sidenote the editor is for some reason highlighting the previous text so I am not able to Fix any mistakes in this post without rewriting everything after that, any idea why this is suddenly happening, its the 2nd time.

 

Thanks for the guiding
