2 routers

[Baggie]

Hi there

I have 2 routers ... 1 on IP 192.168.1.2 and one on IP 192.168.1.1
router 1 has got a fixed wan IP, router 2 has a dynamic wan IP

I want all incoming traffic from router A routed to the same router A
and all traffic coming from router B answered to router B

Problem is ... I have only 1 Default Gateway to define on the server
(windows2000)
+
I don't think route command (add route ...) will do.

Anyone?

That's not really what you "want" but I think the following will solve your
problem...

Yes, (one "default") so you must use a Static Route.

I don't think route command (add route ...) will do.

No, that is the (principle for the) fix -- use the equivalent of "route add"
on the EXTERIOR router. This router uses it's "default" setting to reach
the internet and a SPECIFIC route to the interior router for the interior
network(s).

The interior router (if there is just one deep) can use the exterior as it's
default.

You might actually do better with static routes in "RRAS" or using NetSh.exe
as the "route" command is not fully integrated with the RRAS services. It
is
more of a client OS feature.

On A (exterior router) do the equivalent of:

route add IP.Interior.Most.Net mask 255.what.ever.0 192.168.1.1

Based on your description above B or router #2 is 192.168.1.1 (which is
inconsistent nomenclature but the way you wrote it down.)
