Forwarded port

RouterOS Beginner Basics

I forwarded all port 80 requests from the WAN to a specific IP port 80 on my LAN. If I enter the actual address into a browser on my LAN (192.168.1.207) I get to my web server on my LAN. If I enter my domain name into a browser address bar on my LAN I get to the MikroTek router webfig login screen. Is this correct? With my older Linksys router entering my domain name into the browser bar brought me to my web page.

Port forwarding from the WAN is NOT working. When an attempt is made to reach my domain from outside my home, the requestor is returned a 404 error.

Here is what my /ip NAT entries look like
/ip firewall nat
add action=masquerade chain=srcnat comment=“default configuration” out-interface=ether1-gateway to-address=0.0.0.0
add action=dst-nat chain dstnat in-interface=ether1-gateway protocol=tcp src-port=80 to-address=192.168.1.207 to-ports=80

It has to be something simple on my part. Any help suggestions greatly appreciated.

For WAN to LAN assuming Ether1 is WAN:
add action=dst-nat chain=dstnat dst-port=80 in-interface=ether1 protocol=tcp to-addresses=192.168.1.207 to-ports=80


For Masquerading:
add action=masquerade chain=srcnat comment=“LAN Masquerade” out-interface=ether1


If you are using the Mikrotik as a DNS server you can also verify that the static entries are not messing you up, and you can flush the DNS cache.

Thank you, that solved it. My stupid mistake as the documentation I have indicates exactly what you said.
