Send data to Multiple IPs

kb007 — Thu, 12 Sep 2024 10:53:51 GMT

For some reason, Site A has to send a Syslog to multiple IPs, Site B and Site C; for now, it sends a packet with one destination, and the honor of Syslog forwarding to a second destination is given to FW. Is it possible to duplicate the packet and change it to a new destination?

There are proper static NATs from A to B and A to C.

The main trouble is forwarding every packet to a second destination. Are there any options?

No, the firewall doesn't have a feature to duplicate packets. The source will need to send the data to two destinations (two different IPs or two different ports on the same IP).

A packet broker solution is needed here.

I don't write any brand porposely, Google is your friend 🙂
