2 Routerboard devices with integrated WLAN-controller and Capsman config

Hi everybody,

I tried to visualise my network configuration in the attached network overview .

Devices: CRS109-8G-1S-2HnD, 2011UAS-2HnD

I bought the CRS because I wanted to be more flexible in configuring my network.
Up to this point everything has worked fine with the whole wireless network configuration being set on the RB2011.
In preparation for a new internet access I wanted to switch all important network services to the CRS.
Additionally I wanted to implement capsman to simplify my wireless network.

First I forgot to set up specific VLANs for the new configuration.
I learned the basics about VLANs and implemented them yesterday.
The configuration with bridges were challenging and I do not know if I did everything correctly.
The wired network is running fine after implementing the VLANs.

The capsman was configured and the two caps of CRS103 and RB2011 were connected to the manager.
I had some trouble with the tagged VLAN for the caps, but that is working now, too.
I got an IP address from the correct DHCP server and I could ping the default gateway.
I could not ping the next hop via trunk and I also could not access the internet.
This is the point where I got stuck.
I decided to ask the community for help after reading many tutorials about bridging, VLANs, capsman, capsman with VLANs and so on, but unfortunately I did not come across a solution for my problem.

Some information about my configs.

  • I know that my firewall config is suboptimal, but I wanted to fix general network problems before adding more issues because of a too strict firewall setup


  • I have a wireless config on the RB2011 as a temporary workaround for my wireless devices. IP address, DHCP and WLAN1 on RB2011 are disabled while I work on analysing this problem

I would appreciate if someone had a look at my running config.

Many thanks in advance! :slight_smile:

Kind regards,
Sascha

Hi,

I found a solution for the problem, I want to share with you. I know how frustrating it is to find a topic that describes the issue you have and the solution is missing.

The problem was a missing route on Router_Lan_2 back to Router_LAN_1 for WLAN-Intern.


add distance=1 dst-address=192.168.2.192/26 gateway=vlan22_wlan_intern
