Small reflection issue in redirects about openwrt HOT 5 OPEN

If the httpd server is on the router, the dest would not need to be lan. It could be omitted.

config redirect
        option target 'DNAT'
        option name 'httpd'
        option family 'ipv4'
        list proto 'tcp'
        option src 'wan'
        option src_dport '80'
        option dest_port '8079'

Hi Dave, and thanks!

:8079 is a filter (before the server) that I'd want to be on the LAN (to be able to move it with ease). When the filter is in another (LAN) machine this works, but as soon as I move it to the router stops working because the source address it gets is wrong (only for the LAN clients).

I'd like to know why the reflection stops working depending on the destination, and if that's a bug or my bad (something I'm misunderstanding, very likely!).

Cheers,

Tested:

Hostname		openWrt
Model			LeMaker Banana Pro
Architecture		ARMv7 Processor rev 4 (v7l)
Target Platform		sunxi/cortexa7
Firmware Version	OpenWrt 23.05.3 r23809-234f1a2efa / LuCI openwrt-23.05 branch git-24.086.45142-09d5a38
Kernel Version		5.15.150

(same redirect config)

And it does the same: only works if :8079 is in another machine.

I've also tested using other ports, just in case :80 had somehow a different behavior due to LuCI, but it makes no difference.

Could this have something to do with it?
