Hi

I have a Mikrotik setup to use IP addresses provided by my DSL ISP.

The Ip's are passed through a Cisco 837 router and have a /29 netmask.
The Ip's i think are passed via a VPN tunnel from the ISP.
The IP's are Static and thus provided over the VPN.

I have a problem thus

I have assign x.x.x.130 to the mikrotik
The Cisco is x.x.x.129
The netblock is x.x.x.128/29 thus x.x.x.128 - x.x.x.135

The IP address i have bound onto a server is x.x.x.131. It also has another live IP of y.y.y.220.

I have added a static route for x.x.x.131/32 to point to the server on y.y.y.220.


This is the problem .... the mikrotik has an address y.y.y.221

I can not allow traffic on the y.y.y.216/29 network to not flow

When i set the server's default gateway to the mikrotik and not to the y.y.y.217 I can ping the server but not ssh or telnet to ports 25 110 3389 and 80

Any idea's - when it runs with the other network of y.y.y.217 as the default gateway thus bypassing the mikrotik everything works.

When i set the Mikrotik as default everything dies..


Any ideas.....

Are you using masquerading or are the y.y.y.y/29 addresses public IP's? if so are there routes to them in the cisco router and the mikrotik? (if the mikrotik is just being bridged then it just needs a default route to be managed outside the local segment.

What are you trying to accomplish with the mikrotk? Transparent firewalling, routing, bandwidth shaping?

also, what is y.y.y.217?

Hi

The mikrotik must Run the whole system

the y.y.y.217 is a Cisco router 1601 that brings a serial line in.


The mikrotik will be the core router for the site

If i make it the defaut route the x.x.x network can browse

but if i try hit x.x.x.131 or y.y.y.220 on ports 80,25,110 or 3389 it does not go through.

I have setup the mikrotik with a route to x.x.x.131 via y.y.y.220 i suspect the ping will go through but TCP traffic might not be able to route correctly

Any ideas
