Is the Doc about NAT maqueraded trafic wrong ?

[Deleted member 173529]

Hi,

I've PVE installed on a debian VM (A) on VMWare for testing purpose, before doing it on bare metal.

Inside Proxmox, i've another guest debian VM (B) with which I try to access the internet thru a natted and maqueraded interface configured on debian A, but can't.

I've followed the official doc, masquering section.

I have 2 network:

Network C (which is a VMWare NAT interface with DHCP)
address: 192.168.2.0/24
gateway: 192.168.2.2
hosts: 2.10 to 2.254

Subnet D (defined in the network/interface of debian A)
address; 10.10.10.0/24
gateway: 10.10.10.1
hosts: 10.2 to 10.254

Debian A can ping on both network, therefore the Internet.
Debian B can only ping on subnet D, so that's why i suspect some routing issues on Debian A

debian A /etc/network/interface (ip_forward is set to 1)

        address 192.168.2.10/24

debian B ip a

debian B ip r

default via 10.10.10.1 dev ens18 onlink
10.10.10.0/24 dev ens18 proto kernel scope link src 10.10.10.2

The route seems correct to me.
I've disable UFW to mitigate firewall forwarding issues.

Thanks in advance for help.
