How to make 2 different subnet talk in LAN via rvs4000?

lime.soft
Level 1
Level 1

Hi,

Anyone can advice ?

I have 2 sites located 500 meters away and i connect it via 2 x RVS4000.

I managed to get the site to site VPN up Via internet and from my network 192.168.1.x able to reach 192.168.2.x.

-where 192.168.1.100 (user try to acces my FTP server 192.168.2.99) has no issues but it's slow due to my internet connection speed.

So i setup another link via wireless( wireless bridge ) purpose is to resolve slow connection via internet.

But some how i try to set traffics divertion from 192.168.1.x to 192.168.2.99 via local LAN faild.

anyone have idea how possible to setup the network such as picture attached with RVS4000?

hi

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Hi

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

May I have the serial number of the router?

from lime soft to All Participants:

yah sure, hold on

from lime soft to All Participants:

SER150900PO

from lime soft to All Participants:

and SER150900PM

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

ok

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

So, what static route do you need on the device?

from lime soft to All Participants:

ok, let me explain

from lime soft to All Participants:

i have two sites connected to each other via VPN, 192.168.1.x , and 192.168.2.x

from lime soft to All Participants:

my ftp server is at 192.168.2.99

from lime soft to All Participants:

i can access via site to site vpn using rvs4000

from lime soft to All Participants:

but issue is very slow due to my internet connection

from lime soft to All Participants:

so i decided to setup a wireless bridge (my remote site is about 500 meters away)

from lime soft to All Participants:

my intention is to set primary static route to another subnet via wireless bridgei

from lime soft to All Participants:

secondary via VPN tunnel, but it seem like the RVS has no option for me to add statics route as i mention above

from lime soft to All Participants:

or you can refer to my discussion address here - > https://supportforums.cisco.com/thread/2183204

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

The RVS4000 has options for static route

from lime soft to All Participants:

i'm not sure, can you view my diagram over there?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

When you set up the static route in RVS4000 - just set the remote subnet, for example 192.168.2.0 subnet 255.255.255.0 and the gateway (which needs to be the device whose internet you want to use)

from lime soft to All Participants:

it can't, because i wanted to route LAN to LAN

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Why is this wireless bridge conencting the same subnet? 192.168.1.10 - 192.168.1.11

from lime soft to All Participants:

example i wanted to route 192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 192.168.2.1

from lime soft to All Participants:

is that wrong?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

192.168.1.xxx and 192.168.2.xxx are already connected through VPN, right?

from lime soft to All Participants:

yup, but it's to slow, so i decided to use a wireless bridge to connect them

from lime soft to All Participants:

and vpn just as a backup or user to users connection only

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Aha, so you just want to use a bridge

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

However, I am not sure that the wireless bridge will be faster

from lime soft to All Participants:

i have tested ping each other (without) RVS4000 is fast

from lime soft to All Participants:

coz currently all 192.168.2.x will route to the VPN

from lime soft to All Participants:

i wanted if 192.168.2.99 is routed to LAN

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Yes, but actually you want to conenct both subnets twice - once through VPN and twice through the wireless brigde

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

I think that these two can not work at the same time

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Because you will have a loop

from lime soft to All Participants:

if i decided to disconnect the VPN?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Then it should work, yes

from lime soft to All Participants:

how?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

just connect the RVS4000 to the wireless bridge on both ends

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

and set two static routes - one on each router poiting to the other

from lime soft to All Participants:

the static route at 192.168.1.1 would look like how? 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 ????

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Yes 192.168.2.0 255.255.255.0 yes - you should be pointing to the whole subnet

from lime soft to All Participants:

point to where?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

To the remote subnet

from lime soft to All Participants:

when i was in the static route GUI

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

192.168.2.0 is the whole subnet

from lime soft to All Participants:

it ask for destination IP, subnet < and gateway

from lime soft to All Participants:

so destination ip = 192.168.2.0

from lime soft to All Participants:

subnet 255.255.255.0

from lime soft to All Participants:

gateway ? what should i fill in?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Destination IP Address Enter the network address of the remote LAN segment.

For a standard Class C IP domain, the network address is the first three fields of

the Destination LAN IP, while the last field should be zero.

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

yes

from lime soft to All Participants:

so destination ip = 192.168.2.0

from lime soft to All Participants:

subnet 255.255.255.0

from lime soft to All Participants:

so gateway ? what should i fill in?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

The gateway can be the remote router's IP address

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

because the router is poiting there

from lime soft to All Participants:

if i type 192.168.2.1 it say ip is not alive, if i put in 192.168.1.1 it say invalid

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Not alive means unreachable

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

May be the link between the two routers is not ok?

from lime soft to All Participants:

see...

from lime soft to All Participants:

if vpn is desconnected, of coz router 1 would not know router's LAN IP

from lime soft to All Participants:

that's why we need to add static route at route 1

from lime soft to All Participants:

is the route doesn't allow another ip address which is unreachable, means no point

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Yes, but the wireless bridge should be working, otherwise there would not be any traffic between the two subnets

from lime soft to All Participants:

ok, wireless bridge is only communicating between 192.168.1.10 <--> 192.168.1.11

from lime soft to All Participants:

and how possible my lan ip at router 2 which is 192.168.2.x can ping to 192.168.1.x before i can actually add static route at router #2

from lime soft to All Participants:

example if i wanted to communicate from 192.168.2.100 to 192.168.1.11, i should add static route 182.168.1.0/24 192.168.2.1 (the gateway of router #2)

from lime soft to All Participants:

for your information, i at router #1 can ping to 192.168.1.10 and 192.168.1.11

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

that means both access points, right?

from lime soft to All Participants:

yup

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

and on the other end?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

From both ends?

from lime soft to All Participants:

at router #2 i cannot ping to 192.168.1.x (1.10, 1.11 and so on which is under 1.x)

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Yes, but how is #2 setup?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

On both end NAT is disabled, right?

from lime soft to All Participants:

is under gateway mode

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Whenever there;s gateway mode NAT is enabled

from lime soft to All Participants:

if i set to router mode, my internet is not working and same, i cannot add static route either it will always say invalid gateway and network is unreachable

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Let me verify something

from lime soft to All Participants:

ok

from lime soft to All Participants:

btw my internet connection both end is using pppoe

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

That means dynamic public IPs?

from lime soft to All Participants:

wan ip is static

from lime soft to All Participants:

but i need to use pppoe to connect

from lime soft to All Participants:

so i need to router to do nat

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

I see

from lime soft to All Participants:

are you looking in to it?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

yes

from lime soft to All Participants:

ok

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

So, how are you setting up the wireless bridge, what device do you use?

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

devices?

from lime soft to All Participants:

it's a wap54g

from lime soft to All Participants:

i set it to bridge mode

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

and what is the distance between them?

from lime soft to All Participants:

about 500 meters

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

You use a wap54G to cover 500 meters?

from lime soft to All Participants:

i use a 1mw pannel antena

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

Its range is much lower

from lime soft to All Participants:

tested host ping to host no problem

from lime soft to All Participants:

getting 20 ms respones

from Borislav Atanassov to All Participants:

aha

from lime soft to All Participants:

aha ?

Good Afternoon Lime Soft,

After review your question I need to let you know that this type of configuration is not recommendable.

To Use both connections in order to connect the same end devices, would cause a loop.

Beside that, According to the information provided, you are trying to connect the Lan with 2 WAP54g's separate by a distance of  500 meters (152Ft) and the maximum rate of these devices is 75Ft.

So I would recommend you decide between both connections and if you go for the LAN connection, to use a device with more range or get the devices closer.

Thank you.
