I'm trying to setup a 1700 series router with 2 leased line PPP T1's from two seperate carriers. Currently, one leased line is in place and I need to bring another office on-board. The equipment I have is as follows:
1700 router - Internet traffic only
1700 Router - 2 leased lines (two WIC cards)
1600 Router - Installed at existing facility
1600 Router - to be installed at new site.
Existing facility configuration on the HQ site (where both leased lines go)
Eth0 - 192.168.1.253/24
Serial1 - 192.168.200.4/30
Subnet at remote site 192.168.2.0/24
HDLC
New Facility: Serial0 only as eth0 is the only ethernet port!
Serial0 - currently unnumbered
subnet 192.168.3.0/24
HDLC
Static Routes:
192.168.2.0/24 Serial1
192.168.3.0/24 Serial0
192.168.1.0/24 Eth0
0.0.0.0/0 192.168.1.1 (Watchguard Firebox)
The problem is: I can pass traffic router to router but am not able to pass traffic from the network through the routers to the remote network. I do have routes setup in Watchguard so I don't believe that is the issue. Here are the watchguard routes:
192.168.2.0/24 192.168.1.253
192.168.3.0/24 192.168.1.253
Here's what is confusing me. WHEN I configure the 1700 with a SINGLE leased line, I have no issues at all with the configuration - each remote site can access SQL, Exchange and access the Internet. However, when I configure both WIC's, everything breaks down and the remote sites can no longer access anything.
My client does not have frame relay - it's a simple leased line PPP.
Can anyone point me in the right direction to get this set up? Can the 1700's even handle multiple PPP connections?
Thanks - Rich
