Unexpected FW behaviour

Hi,

i have made a simple vApp containing two VMs.
VM01 have two NIC, 1 connected to the internal vApp network and 1 connected to an Org Network which is direct connected to the external network
VM02 is only connected to the internal vApp network.
I'm trying to run RDP to the VM01 machine. When using the configuration in attachment FW-CONF-OK (basically allowing all traffic to port 3389) everything works fine. See attachment LOG-OK (ACCEPT source 192.168.20.20 destination 192.168.2.101).
RDP does not work when i specify the destination address in the firewall configuration, attachment FW-CONF-FAIL. See attachment LOG-FAIL (DROP source 192.168.20.20 destination 192.168.2.101).
i'm using the 5.1 version.
Anyone?
Regards,
Magnus

Can you show a screenshot of the NAT rule?

I suspect your firewall rule has the destination address of the inside IP of the NAT rule, when it should be the external IP.
