I have about 4 different subnetworks at my place, when i'm trying to ping to static device in subnetwork1 from subnetwork2 i always see that device pings, even if it's off. I assume my SRX300 answers ICMP requests instead of forwarding them to specific subnetwork. I had no same issue in EdgeMAX, which i were using before.

How to make SRX not intercept ICMP requests to different devices than himself?

    Here we need to understand one thing that the ICMP doesn't have any port number as it is not working on the Transport layer, We can say virtually it is running on Layer 3.5 as it uses the service of IP and does not have Port number. Now when you wants to forward ports from any gateway level device for ICMP protocol, According to logic it must be all ports which needs to be forwarded in the direction on the local subnet then only the gateway level device will forward this packets inside subnet and not answers by themselves.

    Assuming you're pinging a "forwarded" IP address (destination NAT) - port forwarding works for transport-layer protocols that use L4 ports, not for ICMP.

  • I ping from 10.33.11.201 to 10.5.5.5. Under "forwarding" i mean not responding to it, but let the actual address respond to ICMP

    Please provide your Destination NAT configuration, and the output of show security flow session protocol icmp source-prefix 10.33.11.201/32 destination-prefix 10.5.5.5/32 run while you are pinging the device that is turned off Commented May 22, 2019 at 12:34

The session output shows that the box is translating the destination address 10.5.5.22 to 10.41.22.3 and then routing it out ae0.22 instead of ae0.5 like you'd expect. It is very likely that your NAT config will help determine why this is (static and destination)

  • Can you direct me, what i can do to solve this issue?

  • @Nufay Provide your full NAT configuration show configuration security nat Commented May 24, 2019 at 9:12
  • @AndreyProkhorov , Destination NAT contains only rules with forwarding from untrust zone to trust zone used for remote access.

After @BenjaminDale and @AndreyProkhorov asked for full NAT configuration, i went to check it once more and i found what caused this problem. Destination NAT was the cause of the problem

I had Hairpin rules for port forward and it looked like this:

username# show security nat destination rule-set HAIRPIN-trust
from zone trust;
rule HAIRPIN-SRV1 {
    match {
        destination-address 0.0.0.0/32;
        destination-port {
            20001 to 21000;
        }
    }
    then {
        destination-nat {
            pool {
                SRV1;
            }
        }
    }
}

And the cause of my problem was solved after specifying actual WAN IP address in match destination-address section. But i still don't understand, why it could cause this issue.

At the end i left the destination NAT configuration with protocol specified:

username# show security nat destination rule-set HAIRPIN-trust
from zone trust;
rule HAIRPIN-SRV1 {
    match {
        destination-address 0.0.0.0/32;
        destination-port {
            20001 to 21000;
        }
        protocol tcp;
    }
    then {
        destination-nat {
            pool {
                SRV1;
            }
        }
    }
}
