I cannot access website on VM in Hyper -V within LAN

Good day great minds,

i cannot access my webserver behind an nginx reverse proxy within my LAN network.

i have a mikrotic router with a LAN network 192.168.143.0/24, i deployed an hyper V server that has a NICTeam with a static IP 192.168.143.165 and a gateway 192.168.143.1

i created an external Vswitch with the multiplexor from the NIC and shared it with and internal Vswitch through the properties window of the external vswitch. i configured the NAT for the internal vswitch so that my webservers can have access to internet. After this, i deployed 4 webserver with the internal vswitch on network 192.168.138.0/24 (DHCP not enabled and no gateway), 1 nginx reverse proxy to direct traffic to the other 3 VMs. All VMs can see the internet and working perfectly. However, for some reasons that i cannot figure out, i can access the webserver from within the Hyper V host and outside the whole network but i cannot access the webserver from any ip address within 192.168.143.0/24 network which happens to be our major network and where majority of the users are. these are the steps i have taken but with no success.

  1. add IP route 192.168.143.0, the mask and its gateway
  2. add ip route 192.168.138.0/24 the mask and its gateway
  3. deployed RRAS and NAT in windows server 2019 with 2 NIC with 192.168.143.0/24 as internet and 192.168.138.0/24 as LAN
  4. added the ip addresses and FQDN in the host config within the Hyper V host
  5. did an nslookup for all the domains from a client machine within the 192.168.143.0/24 network and the path seems to go through the public ip rather than reference the local ip address.

i have open all necessary port on the reverse proxy, webservers and also Hyper V host.

also i tried to ping the VM from any client within 192.168.143.0/24 network, i had no response. meanwhile i could ping the client from the VM in the internal switch.

i had read through many routing articles but cannot seem to find a solution to the problem. i am not certain if the problem is caused by reverse proxy i deployed which i really need because of shortage of public address available. please any idea as to what i could have done wrong or not done at all.

`the path seems to go through the public ip rather than reference the local ip address.` All of that and there is no information on the internal DNS record?

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
