I’m trying to configure my EdgeRouter X SFP to access HA from outside my home.
I searched all over the Internet, tried everything and still nothing.
When I type my DDNS URL I always get my EdgeRouter login page. This is driving me crazy!!!
I have the EdgeRouter and behind abother router that I configured as “Bridge”.
I set the port foward and the DDNS but I always get my EdgeRouter login page.
I would like to use dyndns.org because I have a pro account there.
In your firewall/NAT settings you only provide eth1 as LAN. But in you DNS forward settings you provide switch0, eth2 and eth3. On which eth is your rpi? If it is on eth2 or 3 it should be added at the firewall/NAT settings as LAN. Otherwise the ERX is not going to create the proper forwarding rules.
I’m really greatful that someone is willing to help. Thank you! This is making my blood pressure rise!!!
I did what you told me but I’m still getting the Edge Router login page everytime I use the external URL.
What am I missing? Some configuration inside HA?.. Some add-on?
Could you please check the red arrows and tell me if the fields are correct?
I have the HA connected to a switch and than to the Edge Router. Is this a problem?
With VPN your connection would be a ‘local’ connection, provided you activate your vpn prior to accessing HA. I.o.w accessing HA with https://192.168.0.5:8123
Ofc you should be able to access HA also with port-forwarding also
First of all, you need to establish to witch interface you internet is connected to.
Mine uses pppoe (username/password from isp), and I forward to ‘switch0’ (meaning all local LAN ports):
Then I forward port 443 to HA’s internal P, port 8123:
And then from outside I access HA with https://my.dns.name (no need to specify 8123, as https uses port 443)
