Absolute noob

I have a 493 o.s 3.11. i am looking to setup a lan with 8 p.c’s. one ether to another lan. all data that comes from the other lan needs forwarding to only one p.c.

ie ether1(192.168.0.1) <> ether2 (192.168.2.1)
all other p.c’s (192.168.2.x)

i do not need DHCP or anything as each machine has to have fixed ip.

i am having trouble getting this setup.

Thanks in advance

Sorry, but I am not sure I understand. What do you mean by ‘forwarding’? Are you talking about routing, and you want to drop in the firewall all traffic from 192.168.0.0/24 to 192.168.2.0/24 with the exception of 192.168.0.1 and 192.168.2.1 sending traffic to each other via the firewall bidirectionally? Or are you talking about port forwarding and destination NAT?
How far did you get and what did you try? Either way it doesn’t sound too hard to do, but please clarify what you are trying to achieve.

HI,
Thanks for replying.

I am talking about 8 pc’s on the range (192.168.2.1 to 192168.2.:sunglasses: everything open.
i then want to put this system on somebody else’s lan (ether1) where the system is (192.168.1.0 to 255) all ports bidirectionally need routing to ether2 (192.168.2.1).

Cheers

Then you need to put an IP address within 192.168.1.0/24 on ether1 on the Mikrotik router, and insert a route to 192.168.2.0/24 via that IP address on the router that clients on 192.168.1.0/24 use as a default gateway.

I don’t mean to be harsh, but I would suggest changing the topic title (and from now on be more specific in the topic title).

Thanks for the advice. But what about some help.

Did what I posted get you any closer?

no i still cant get things going.
i have attached a file.
i need a local lan with 1 pc and 4 ethernet based controllers.
i need the router to reside on my customers lan on 192.168.1.91. but my network needs to be on ip range 192.168.2 xx.
Any data coming into 192.168.1.91 needs to be routed to the pc which is 192.168.2.1 and i also need the p.c to reply through 192.168.1.91 route.
