Title: multi WAN and VLAN questions Post by: argie01 on Friday 02 December 2011, 08:59:10 pm Hi,
I'm testing Endian 2.4.1 and I need some help to configure it. I configured 3 interfaces, each one connected to a diferent VLANs. So, these are my questions: 1. Do I need to create VLANs on Endian, too? Because the VLANs I talk above are created on my main switch and on VMware, but not on Endian. 2. I configured the zones green, red, and orange. But green zone is VLAN for servers, and I don't know how to tell to Endian that to get into the user's VLAN it has to use a gateway (i.e., my main switch as gateway). So, now to admin Endian I have to get into the web from a server, and I can't do it from my PC. 3. Multi WAN: I need to configure 2 WANs. One of then (the main one), is on red zone. I'm planning to connect the other one to orange zone. I don't need to use both WAN at the same time, but I need to know how to configure orange zone as a backup WAN. And a way to switch to it, just in case... Thank you for your help. Title: Re: multi WAN and VLAN questions Post by: argie01 on Saturday 03 December 2011, 12:15:41 am Hi again,
meanwhile I wait for an answer to the post above I did some configuration on EF: 1. I created a green an a red zone (I deleted the orange zone). 2. On "Network/Interfaces" I created another interface that is my backup WAN line (uplink1). 3. I disabled the main interface (just for test: I connected the backup WAN router to this new FW). 4. I created two static routes: 0.0.0.0/24 WAN_main_ip/32 Main Link 0.0.0.0/24 WAN_backup_ip/24 Backup Link Then I wrote a route on my main switch to redirect a particular public-internet-ip to Endian FW. My hope here was that I could reach that public Ip using the wan backup link. But it doesn't works. I don't know why. Thank you for your help. PS: One curious thing here is despite the routes I wrote on "Network/Routes (static)" I didn't see that routes on "Status/Network Status". The routes there are always the same... and I'm not sure that is correct. |
