Hi,

I have 2 2860's in the same site connected to 2 separate broadband's and want to connect the 2 together so if you are on one you can connect to the resources on the other.

each 2860 has 3 subnets set on them .1 is default gateway on each
Router 1
10.10.20.0 on port 2&3 LAN2
10.10.25.0 on Port 4 LAN3
10.10.30.0 on Port 5&6 LAN4
Router 2
192.168.2.0 on Port 2&3 LAN2
10.10.15.0 on Port 4 LAN3
10.10.40.0 on Port 5&6 LAN4

I have tried just adding the 192.168.249 to the router 1 on Port1 LAN5 and LAN1, the routing tables do not see 10.10.15 or 40 on router 1

I have tried static routes no joy

I have tried adding a LAN5 and 1 on each with 10.10.50.0

This is driving me mad
Questions and advice welcome

Thanks
Dave

There's probably more than one way to do this, but how about:-

• Interconnect Port 1 on both Routers


• On Router 1, set Port 1 IP address to 192.168.1.1/24 (LAN 5 - though LAN 1 appears to be free)


• On Router 2, set Port 1 IP address to 192.168.1.2/24 (LAN 5)


• On both Routers, enable inter-lan routing to/from [LAN5]


• Router 1: Create Static Routes for all Router 2 networks (192.168.2.0/24,10.10.15.0/24 & 10.10.40.0/24) -> 192.168.1.2


• Router 2: Create Static Routes for all Router 1 networks (10.10.20.0/24,10.10.25.0/24 & 10.10.30.0/24) -> 192.168.1.1

I think that should be it...
...though I admit to being slightly confused by the Netmask for those 10.10... networks!)
