WAN IP Alias / Port forwarding / WAN IP Alias / "source port already exists"
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?

Does anyone have information if this is already solved? THere was a major update for the Omada Controller Software but I do not know, if this problem has been solved with this new version. C

@Honkman I am facing the issue with the ER605. Since we are not able to do port forwarding, is it possible to "manually" add the rules in ACL?

@Honkman Is there a solution for this issue available? There are newer version of Omada as well as a major new release (v6) but it seems that this has not been solved yet.
Anyone from TP-Link here that can comment on that?
That is really a very basic requirement and almost all routers that we use are able to handle that with ease. This hinders us from rolling out TP-Link gateways.

@MR.S Are you configuring on the device directly or are you usign the Omada controller? C

@MR.S I have 6.1.0.19 . And it is still not working and shows the error. I even changed to your gateway model.
How did you configure your WAN interface? I set the IP to the first IP of my IP pool. The subnet mask is 255.255.255.240 in my case. the GW is within the pool (one lower than my first IP). Then I added the additional IPs as WAN IP Aliases. But there the alias addresses are labeled as "IP Subnets". Which, for me, is not correct. If I define a subnet I need to provide an IP and the mask (like 24, 22, 20, etc.).
How did you do that? Do I need to enter the IP Aliases there? To my understanding it should be sufficient, if I add the correct subnet mask to the main WAN config. THis should tell the router which IPs I can use. Right?
