Cannot connect to voip server from client device? - ubuntu-14.04

I have a an asterisk server hosted on address 70.40.180.100/. When I type this on the web-browser, I can open the freePBX web-front to access the application. I now want to connect client devices to this server. When I hosted the server on my local system, I gave my local ip-address as my host-address on my client device(android phone) and I was able to make voip calls. Here the ip-address of the server is not available to connect ans the server address also does not work. I know, the problem is because the ip-address is not public and I need to do something like port forwarding. But, I would like some direction here.
My server is a Ubuntu-1404-trusty-64-minimal and ifconfig gives

The port forwarding you'll need, assuming you didn't change any other default settings, is:
UDP 5060
UDP 10000-20000
So in your router/firewall you'll need all of those forwarded to your local IP.
Keep in mind that this creates a large security issue. You don't want to allow open access. Make sure you whitelist the IPs that need to connect only. A better alternative is to configure a VPN between your server and your clients. NAT and VoIP don't play nice, so the VPN will resolve those issues for you as well before they start.

Are my centos venet0 settings causing url not to work on server?

I'm attempting to use node.js on centOS6 VPS to host a website. I have a basic app running and everything works when I go to the ip 198.11.54.18, however when I go to the domain name sluap.com I get page not found. I'm thinking something is wrong with my venet0 or venet0:0 configs, but I'm not sure what to look for. I can ping sluap.com, and the whois stuff all looks correct, so I figure it has to be a setting or step in centOS that I'm doing wrong. Maybe the problem is completely unrelated, any help would be appreciated, I've been trying to fix this for a long time.

Because I was using a2 hosting I was under the impression that my name server was NS1.A2HOSTING.COM, but for their vps they use dns1.name-services.com instead. Apparently the problem had 0% to do with the loop back config or the venet0 configurations. They were all correct and working fine with a default centOS install...

Cassandra config change to use hostnames after ip's changed

Initial installation of Cassandra was done using IP addresses and it has been working for 6+ months. This past weekend DevOps changed security to not allow IP addresses and also reassigned new IP addresses. I modified the required files (cassandra.yaml, cassandra-rackdc.properties, etc) to contain hostnames. The issue is nodetool status gives the error, Failed to connect to '127.0.0.1:7199, and I do have JVM_OPTS="$JVM_OPTS -Djava.rmi.server.hostname=blah" in cassandra-env.sh. Any ideas how to proceed to the environment back up? Should I go through the same files and replace hostnames with the new IP addresses? Thanks.
There are two options to provide listen address in Cassandra.yaml.
listen_address
listen_interface
To be completely agnostic of the IP address or hostname, use the option of listen_interface and comment the listen_address. Here is the Cassandra.yaml change required
# Address or interface to bind to and tell other Cassandra nodes to connect to.
#
#listen_address: xx.xxx.xx.xxx
# Set listen_address OR listen_interface, not both. Interfaces must correspond
# to a single address, IP aliasing is not supported.
listen_interface: eth0
To figure out the actual listen_interface, issue the command
ifconfig -a
Pick the interface that shows, "UP BROADCAST RUNNING". (eth0 in mycase)
The output should look like
root#ip-xx-xxx-x-xxx:~# ifconfig -a

Restart Cassandra and you should be good to go. Another advantage is that Cassandra.yaml no longer has to be different across your nodes (assuming all have the same network interface).

Cannot access Puppet Learning VM

I have set up puppet learning VM on VirtualBox. I can ssh into it with:
ssh root#127.0.0.1 -p 2222
However, the guide says to do facter ipaddress, and ssh into the ipaddress that outputs. I get 10.0.2.15.
If I try that ipaddress, it does not work. I want to get it to work.
Also, I am supposed to be able to access the Puppet gui from https://10.0.2.15 and am not able to do that. I think the two problems are related.
I have 3 adapters set up. 1. NAT, 2. host only adapter, 3. bridged network.
For #1, I have port forwarding set up (am not able to ssh without it).

NICs
I don't see any IP assigned to your NICs except eth0. I assume this learning VM is based on centos, please configure your network adapters correctly first.
check:
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth1
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth2
/etc/udev/rules.d/70-persistent-net.rules
This is no puppet or virtualbox issue.
port forwarding
Accessing https://10.0.2.15 will not work, this is an internal NAT network IP. Please create an entry for your VMs NAT Adapter under Port-Forwarding, just map Host Port 10443 to guest port 443. If you try to access https://localhost:10443 in your browser you should reach the service running on this VM and listening on port 443.(Check if the service is running and the firewall/iptables is open on all needed ports).
Patrick is right. The configuration within the CentOS box is strange.
It's working for me under windows but on my Ubuntu system I had big trouble setting up the Training VM.
My Tip: just add 22 and 80 port forwordings in your virtualbox.
Change -> Network -> Adapter 1 -> Port-Forwarding -> add
Protokol: TCP | Host-Port: 2222 | Guest-IP: 10.0.2.15 | Guest-Port: 22
-> you may connect now by:
ssh localhost -p 2222 -l root
also:
Protokol: TCP | Host-Port: 8081 | Guest-IP: 10.0.2.15 | Guest-Port: 80
-> you may access the questguide via:
http://localhost:8081

Ifconfig and IPtables Configuration

Would someone explain this below output of ifconfig command. This PC is using USB IP4 Internet connection.
For example: why there is, inet6 addr: fe80::5a2c:80ff:fe13:9263/64 Scope:Link, assigned /
active on eth1, and why loopback is active.
Am trying to configure IPtables with minimum connections as possible and minimize the risk of intrusion.
I did not find an answer to this question.
With many updates and upgrades to Ubuntu since 12.04.

In the folder /etc/network you have the interfaces file, in which you can configure your Ethernet configuration. With something like this:
#Configure Loopback
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
#The primary network interfaces
auto eth0
iface eth0 intet static

I hope this can help

How to configure 2 lan cards on ubuntu

I want to configure 2 lan cards on 1 pc such that it seems that both are connected on different networks.
Also i want the gateway of one lan card be the ip address of the other so that the traffic of one passes through the second. I am applying mitmproxy on my pc to monitor my own traffic.
I am new to ubuntu as well as networking. So if anything i have said is wrong, please do correct me.

You can try iptables to redirect traffic from 1 interface to other.
iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -i ppp0 -p tcp --dport 80 -j REDIRECT --to-ports 8080
will redirect all traffic coming on interface ppp0 on port 80 to port 8080 , where you can run an mitm proxy. Your mitm proxy can use eth0 to forward traffic out.
You might get a better response on serverfault or superuser.
In order to put two different network cards on two different networks you need to assign their IP's properly.
Based on the fact that you are using Net Mask of 255.255.255.0 setting one network card to have IP 10.0.0.1 and second to 10.0.1.1 would put them on two seperate networks. Netmask of 255.255.255.0 defines that your network can contain all IP's which have same first three numbers and fourth from 0 to 255. So if you change one of the first three numbers you put your network card on another network.
As for gateway it must be on the same network that your lan card is. So setting two network card to be on two seperate networks and then setting one lans card gateway to be the other network card won't work. Athleast not until you bridge the two networks together, but that won't prevent computers from one network to access computers on another which I belive is what you wanna do.
