NATMap

This project is used to establish a TCP/UDP port mapping from ISP NAT public address to local private address. If all layers of NAT are full cones (NAT-1), any host can access internal services through the mapped public address. In bind mode, all traffic does not go through this program.

How to Use

Usage

Usage:
 natmap [options]

Options:
 -4                  use IPv4
 -6                  use IPv6
 -u                  UDP mode
 -d                  run as daemon
 -i <interface>      network interface
 -k <interval>       seconds between each keep-alive
 -s <addr>[:port]    domain name or address to STUN server
 -h <addr>[:port]    domain name or address to HTTP server
 -e <path>           script path for notify mapped address

Bind options:
 -b <port>           port number for binding

Forward options:
 -T <timeout>        port forwarding timeout in seconds
 -t <address>        domain name or address to forward target
 -p <port>           port number to forward target (0: use public port)

Bind mode

# TCP
natmap -s turn.cloudflare.com -h example.com -b 80

# UDP
natmap -u -s turn.cloudflare.com -b 443

In TCP mode, this program will establishs a TCP port mapping in two steps:

1. Establish a connection with the HTTP server from the specified bind port and keep-alive.
2. Establish a connection with the STUN server from the same port and obtain the public address.

And this program will call the script specified by the argument to inform the public address after the port mapping is established. and the script can update to the DNS record for external access.

Please note that you need to open the firewall to allow access to the bind port.

OpenWrt

Goto Network -> Firewall -> Traffic Rules

Add a traffic rule:

• Protocol: TCP/UDP
• Source zone: wan
• Destination zone: Device (input)
• Destination port: [bind port]
• Action: accept
• Others: keep default values

If the port binding fails, because it is already in use. This program will try to find out which local service process takes up the port and enable reuse port remotely. This works in Linux kernel 5.6 and later, and needs to run as root.

Forward mode

# TCP
natmap -s turn.cloudflare.com -h example.com -b 80 -t 10.0.0.2 -p 80

# UDP
natmap -u -s turn.cloudflare.com -b 443 -t 10.0.0.2 -p 443

Similar to bind mode, this program will listening on bound port and accepts the incoming connections and forward to target address.

Another way is to use firewall's DNAT to forward, and this way should uses bind mode.

OpenWrt

Goto Network -> Firewall -> Port Forwards

Add a port forward rule:

• Protocol: TCP/UDP
• Source zone: wan
• External port: [bind port]
• Destination zone: lan
• Internal IP address: 10.0.0.2
• Internal port: 80
• Others: keep default values

Script arguments

{public-addr} {public-port} {ip4p} {private-port} {protocol} {private-addr}

• argv[0]: Script path
• argv[1]: Public address (IPv4/IPv6)
• argv[2]: Public port
• argv[3]: IP4P
• argv[4]: Bind port (private port)
• argv[5]: Protocol (TCP/UDP)
• argv[6]: Private address (IPv4/IPv6)

IP4P address

The IP4P address format uses IPv6 special addresses to encode IPv4 addresses and ports for easy distribution through DNS AAAA records.
