Bridges, VLANS, and IP-Sec Tunnels

Fri Apr 07, 2023 12:45 am

Greetings...
I'm setting up for my latest project, and thought I would get some ideas on how to do it better. :)

Scenario is this:
We're partnering with another organization to provide a high-speed wireless link between their sites in exchange for Network access at their sites.

So their base network looks like this...
192.168.55.1/24 VLAN1

I was wanting to extend our network via a IPSEC Tunnel to that site isolated on VLAN5, 10.20.20.1/24.

The Wireless link management will be on VLAN5, but VLAN1 is allowed to pass through it to the remote site's Mikrotik switch.

I was thinking of Bridge1 being for VLAN1, and Bridge2 being for VLAN5;
but then I'm not sure how to allow VLAN1 traffic to go over (Ether11 for the wireless).

2nd issue that I'm questioning is the IPSEC, VLAN5, and Bridge2.
Are their any gotcha's I need to keep in mind for this challenge?

Thanks for any advice you can give.
