I got your setup working and now have to explain something:
typical pub->priv redirect always works with priv->pub mapping,
because NAT have to allocate outleading port when inside server
replies. In your setup there is no rule for mapping replies.
You have to NAT replied packet and it will work with that:
map $int_if static 172.20.27.7 -> 128.232.132.8
map $int_if static 172.20.27.7 <- 128.232.132.8
map $ext_if dynamic $int_net -> $ext_v4
(172.20.27.7 is the outside webserver you are trying to reach).
Interesting: this gets me 172.20.27.7 if I aim for 128.232.132.8 as
requested, but given the other rule, if I aim for 172.20.27.7 I don't
get 172.20.27.7...
I also converted "dynamic" to "static" and have no idea why it works,
maybe npf architector can tell us.
As for previous note about stateful - recently I got same problem.
It seems NAT will never work if inside->outside connection is stateful.
According to http://rmind.github.io/npf/nat.html
It should be
remembered that dynamic NAT, as a concept, relies on stateful
filtering, therefore it is performing it implicitly.
I expected the return rule not be necessary, as I expected the reply
packet to match the connection state. How is this meant to work?
