Title: Two interfaces, two subnets, two gateways Post by: Puck90a on Thursday 07 March 2013, 01:59:46 am I have already Googled this and searched the forums and have seen some answers, but something isn't quite working right and I'd like a little clarification for my specific situation. I'm also somewhat of a noob at this.
I have been using ClearOS community 6.3 for the past several months and have liked it for the most part, but I have had several glitches with it and wanted to try Endian. I really like Endian so far and I'm almost ready to switch to it. In ClearOS, I had three network interfaces. One WAN, two LAN. I had it setup as a virtual machine in ESXi, with 3 NICs assigned to it, and two ethernet cables leaving the host and going into two separate switches which disperse into two separate LANs. The two lan NICS had separate IPs- 192.168.1.1, 192.168.2.1 Modem > Firewall > LAN 1 > LAN 2 So on LAN 1, the default gateway was set to 192.168.1.1, and in LAN 2, the gateway was set to 192.168.2.1. It worked fine this way. Then I setup rules to prevent LAN 1 and LAN 2 from communicating with each other. It's not working that way in Endian. I have already found out I can't have two Green interfaces, so I read that it's okay to just use Orange for a second subnet and setup inter-zone traffic to reject communication between the two. That's what I want to do. I have Green setup as 192.168.1.1, and Orange setup as 192.168.2.1. Green works great, but if I set the default gateway to 192.168.2.1 on LAN 2 PC's, they aren't getting a connection to the internet. Can I not bridge the connection between Orange and Red while simultaneously bridging Green and Red?

I read somewhere that even though orange is considered DMZ and blue wireless, that endian doesn't make much functional distinction between the two until the user has defined the settings. |
