Good day
Am seeking your help please for figuring out how to setup Mikrotik RB750
we have 2 WAN connections and 2 LAN as well, the concern is how to allow these 2 LAN ( different subnet ) communicate each other . the network details are below:
ISP1: Static IP
IP:209.146.21.1X
GW:209.146.21.1Y
DNS:8.8.8.8
ISP2:
IP:192.168.0.X
GW:192.168.0.1
DNS:8.8.8.8
The LAN network must be:
LAN1:192.168.1.1 ( Our Okttel server located in 192.168.1.4).
LAN2:192.168.2.1 ( Our Server is located in 192.168.2.2).
am kindly asking for the help to set up with this please.
1- Main priority connection is for WAN1 ( ISP1)
2- The 2 LAN networks must communicate each other ( for users in network 192.168.1.x to be able to log in to the server 192.168.2.2).
Without seeing your config, I assume that you have something (mangle rules, routing rules) that makes LANs use specific WAN. Otherwise there would be no problem and router would be happily routing between LANs. So it’s probably something with that, and you want to exclude LAN->LAN traffic. How exactly, it depends on what you have now. Another possible explanations is firewall blocking the traffic.
If this is all you have, i.e. no firewall at all, there’s nothing that would block traffic between LANs. Also router is open to whole world, which is not the best idea.
The problem you asked about (communication between LANs) shouldn’t exist, it should work. As for firewall, good approach is to allow what you need and block the rest. Example if which can be seen at the beginning of this thread:
