win2k router

[Alex Crommelin it at lpv dot com dot au]

Hi,

I'd like to confirm my setup as I seem to be having some routing
problems

LAN 192.168.0.x DG 192.168.0.20
|
private 192.168.0.20 DG -
( WIN2k dual homed server with RRAS )
public 192.168.10.254 DG 192.168.10.1
|
LAN 192.168.10.1
(netgear NAT / router, VPN endpoint )
WAN 202.x.x.x

I have enabled IP routing in RRAS and from a LAN client I can ping
192.168.0.20 and 192.168.10.254. From the win2k router I can ping
192.168.10.1 and internet hosts.

I cannot ping either 192.168.10.1 OR internet hosts from LAN clients.
Should this be the case ? If so, what do I do to allow LAN clients to
access the internet through the win2k router ?

thanks

alex

Your Netgear only knows about your 192.168.10 subnet. If it receives a
packet for a 192.168.0 address, what will it do with it? (Answer, either
drop it or send it back out to the Internet).

You must have extra routing so theat the Netgear has a route to your
19.168.0 subnet. You can add a static route to the Netgear to forward this
traffic to the W2k router. Or you can use a routing protocol like RIP on
both routers so that they "learn" what subnets can be reached.

Try adding a route to the Netgear like

192.168.0.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.10.254

Thanks bill, that's the info I needed

yet again I have been foiled by the evil Netgear router, oh well.
Can't seem to add a static route to it and it doesn't respond to RIP
requests on the LAN ports
